[QUOTE="jpfrog, post: 2705767, member: 32525"] Exactly. I wouldn't want to have more than a 6 month backlog if I were making something from raw materials. You try to plan and have a good "educated guess" but really, you have zero knowledge of what your costs could do in 6 months- yet you've already taken orders and made promises to deliver on prices that are relevant today. What if the supply chain suddenly dries up and you have to pay 50-400% more for your raw materials? What if labor supply suddenly becomes non-existent and you have to pay more for unskilled workers AND pay to have them trained? I know, we likely would never see either of those situations play out in our lifetimes....wait, oh, that's right, we just did. [/QUOTE]
