I'm wondering who and where are the majority of arf "kits" are made.
Basically, I want to know if a good or great ARF can be manufactured in the U.S. or is it generally cost prohibitive? If it can be done, can it be profitable? I have a situation where I may be able to do just such a thing on a decent scale, but I want to know your thoughts. REALISTICALLY!! The more detail the better.

I don't know of any "Right" board for your question.

Generally speaking, all ARFs up to $700-$800 are Asian.

As far as I know, all the ARFs that sell over $2000 are made in the USA.

In the range of $1000-$2000 you find them from just about anywhere.

Bill.
