       Hey y’all! I have a question for the NA universe. Is anyone experienced with plastic injection molding? I have a small and simple plastic object that I need to produce. I started to look online, but there are so many options for companies. I have  parents, a logo, a package design and working on a trademark. What I need now is a first run of at least a few hundred.If injection molding doesn’t sound like the right plan for a few hundred, then perhaps one of you knows a 3D printing company?

       @Wilkinsonus I've dealt with injected parts but never designed one (other people did that part).I did find this page that seems to cover more than I thought was relevanthttps://www.hubs.com/guides/injection-molding/Includes a LOT of suggestions on the design to ensure the parts are made consistently.Scroll near the bottom for (or search) "Step 1: Start small and prototype fast" it talks about small quantities and gives you an idea of pricing as well as pros/cons.The next step may be relevant as well.
