I have purchased a bunch of chips as well as all other components to manufacture the Klondike. I was getting quotes from SMT shops locally (Houston) and they want to charge anywhere between $40k and $100k for producing 630 boards. However, for around $15K I can buy my own mini-SMT line here: http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/832249626/Small_smt_assembly_line_smt_machine.html

Any thoughts on whether that Alibaba setup can do the same thing the local SMT shops can do?
