    It's not the coding that takes time it's the fixturing of the machine and if the machine doesn't have tool changer some one as to baby sit the machine changing tools.! . . . In some cases changing the tool can take longer than the tool actualy cuts for, So if there are many tool changes involved then on manual tool change machine it does add up the time and can be more trouble than it's worth for a single board. This is why they won't want to lower price for single board.
