Given that they will be plated I did not see the need in going with stainless, however I did have them quoted in stainless.

PS these will “likely” retail for $38 a complete set in cadmium plated. If I went with stainless they would have likely been $50 or so...

If I went overseas they could have been produced cheap, but I’m trying to support the American industry as best as possible.
Excellent mind set! I greatly appreciate your efforts.
