Get serious. Do you think the SLA will replace that capacity? An SLA won't
make a large flat piece, flatter or faster than you can cut one out of plywood
or plex. Do you do any molding, silicone, plaster, etc? You will still need
people and equipment to make mold boxes assemble pieces. Oh, actually you will
need more equipment, parts washers, sand blasters etc.
Have fun,
