    Maybe they can't interest a local manufacturer. We read every day in the media about 1 or other manufacturer closing the doors and laying off workers. The trouble with Australian manufacturers is that they dropped the baton when globalisation took hold. Instead if diversifying they went begging for tariff protection when other countries were getting rid of tariffs (except for the blo ody yanks that is).
    If you never made a mistake, you never made anything!
