with today's transformer design software most custom shops, like ours, uses, this is an easy part and takes about 10 minutes to design a custom unit like this one. Most custom xfmr mfgrs for this size unit do not stamp their own steel; it is MUCH cheaper to buy it from a steel scrap supplier who also stamps it or sends it to a stamper for you. With good stock of std E-I & stack core steel, there is seldom any delay to get material. Likewise std cu and al is stocked so seldom any wait for it. Longest time today is dip and oven time. there is seldom any powder coating of parts; if so, the local partner panel shop down the road does it while we build the transformer, so being done in parallel rather than sequentially, again no delay. So 1 week is usually no problem although we do try to get a premium to cover putting it before other customers who were there first. But to get one, one has to ask for a quote first.
Just wondering, how does this affect the listing? Or is it? Usually if something's modified, it has to go through testing again at great cost.
