Very impressive. I really didn't think that the White Water design was going to be beat by anything that would be practical to machine. The fact that you've got better performance and (potentially) better manufacturability is truly outstanding.

Have you talked to any injection molders yet?

I did some googling since I last mentioned injection molding, and not only can polycarbonate be injection molded, it is especially good for molding components with fine features. I have no idea of the relative expense of molding polycarbonate, as compared to other plastics, but (considering the frenzy over WW availablity) I think this could definitely sell at volumes that would justify molded parts.
