How do I evaluate the price of the vibro-feeder that I'm modifying? I need to find out how much it would cost to create individual parts, i.e. 1.5mm formed steel or aluminum plate etc.
I guess I should evaluate raw materials first but how much does the preparation costs, any reliable websites?

Prepare some drawings and specifications and shop them around to manufacturers.
