Charles Barker.. Wanted to waited for the rush to get over before I contacted you. I am also very interested in your survey and would greatly appreciate a copy, when available. This is very useful information and will definitely help the designer to think/make realistic decisions. That said, it is always a good idea to contact your fab house, if the purchasing weenie allows you, to verify THEIR capabilities, before you get too far into the design. If your guy can't do it, then the survey will allow you to find someone that can.. Thanks for you time and trouble. Have a good day and a great week.
