Problem with being a engineer is no one wants to listen to you. The Business, management finance types that run everything don't want to spend the money to build it right.
My engineer says I build stuff the way people want stuff built, but people only want pay the made in China pot metal price.
For example when I turbocharged my Kubota tractor I used 0.062'' wall 304 stainless process pipe welded together. Extreme over kill.
