Hi all. I'm the inventor of a new survival and emergency preparedness device and I have been having much difficulty in finding a good manufacturer for this product. I was very happy to find that Practical Machinist offers this board on their forums and decided to place my request here.
The device in question is called the StealthFyre Survival Stoves. We have a website, a YouTube channel, Instagram and Facebook that I would encourage you to source in order to understand what we need from you. We will supply a few .pdf files with dimensions and notes in order to fulfill the quote, but will only do so through private conversations via email. We would like to speak with you over the phone before sending these files and any others that we will supply through an email conversation. You can PM us here on Practical Machinist with your phone number and a good time to call(please add timezone), and we will give you a ring to speak about specifics and your capabilities.
Our current run was done locally and it was a very short, very expensive run. We produced 100 stoves, with each stove consisting of 24 individual panels of various simple shapes, or 2,400 individual panels. These panels were cut on a CNC table from 24 gauge 304 stainless with a #4 finish, but we are also looking to produce a version from titanium sheet as well. They are panels with fine details in need of precision cutting and bending. The tabs on our panels are bent at 90*. Most of our panels will require that these bends be on all 4 sides of each panel, with tabs opposing each other bent in opposite directions. I hope that makes sense. The panels will also need to be deburred.
We are looking for a manufacturer that can also offer kitting, packaging, warehousing and fulfillment services, whether they are in-house or offered by other businesses near your shop. we are looking to have a drop ship agreement of sorts that will work with our online orders for the product.
Any offers that can fulfill these requirements would be greatly appreciated. We are looking to bring the cost per panel down to around $4.00/ea or less, preferably closer to $2.50/ea. Please be able to provide a series of quotes for quantities that best reach this target. This RFQ will remain open until the job is filled.
