Quoted from Homepin:We are using our own colour LED panel that is the same size (very close anyway) to a "standard DMD".
I do like the look of a color DMD more than a TV screen but I'm a video game junky so they're similar to 8 bit graphics. Hopefully the animations will be nifty.

Quoted from rubberducks:Probably not. If you're talking about a US factory employing immigrants without papers, paying well under minimum wage, as a large % of the assembly labour, as has been repeatedly alleged for pinball past & present ........ Versus a foreign (particularly Western) owned and operated factory in China where the authorities and workers will both demand decent pay and reasonable lodgings. As Mike suggested, infrastructure, materials and machinery are another matter entirely, however.
So you're saying it's not cheaper to make an item in China and ship it to the U.S.? Then why are U.S. companies making a majority of items in China?
Quoted from flashinstinct:NAFTA.... you hardly pay customs or taxes to ship items from China to North America.
I thought NAFTA had to do with free trade among the countries in North America, Mexico, U.S. and Canada. Nothing to do with China.
Besides tariffs or taxes there's still shipping costs but I guess that's miniscule when spread out over a thousand items.

Quoted from Homepin:Our cabinets are also made 100% with this ply - no chipboard, MDF
What is a negative for MDF? Strength? Requires nuts and washers for all fasteners?
In my cabinet door job MDF is very good for door panels because it doesn't warp and is good for basements where it's damp.
