For some reason a thought popped in my mind tonight to visit Xometry, and I realized why I stopped using it to begin with. The rates for making parts are just too low, always haggled, always lowballed. The jobs there don't even account that there are raw materials you need to pay for, too? LOL. There's a bit requiring Ti-6Al-4V and that is already 30% more than the price of the part. Didn't they buy Thomas? My god what a waste! Who are making parts for Xometry and
 
Yeah, xometry's rates have been pretty rough lately, they don't seem to account for material costs like Ti 6Al 4V, which jacks up prices. The Thomas acquisition definitely changed things, because now it feels like they're more about lowballing now than quality, sad
