There are a few like that, but be aware that future contractors expect you to send them cogs

Danyport

Herman asks for 1,450 cogs in total, and Ernest shackleton 2,300

Ich zachłanność na części mechaniczne mnie przeraża!

( Their greed for mechanical parts scares me! )

I never sell any products coming from the Workshop. When needed I keep overfilling my warehouses.

Danyport

Graylady ive changed a lot of cogs for money...but im producing them all day too!

Graylady

Danyport It never occur to me to do that.

Mój warsztat pracuje na pełnych obrotach. Codziennie paliwo i beton. Jeśli brak surowców to stale produkuje części mechaniczne. Przerwa w produkcji tylko podczas snu i modernizacji warsztatu.
Nadwyżki często wysyłam do miasta targowego.

( My workshop is working at full speed. Every day fuel and concrete. If it lacks raw materials, it constantly produces mechanical parts. A break in production only during sleep and modernization of the workshop.
I often send surplus to the market town. )

I only sell excess fuel, and then only when I'm absolutely desperate for stone.

Danyport

Graylady why?..ive never waited for cogs bc i sell them when i pass number i need!..there is a good gold amount exchange

I almost rarely ever sell excess stock of oil or cement.
...But when I lost 22k flags last Wednesday, I was streamed enough to send the excess of both Immediately to market. I was unable to cancel the load of flags in time because I was trying to take a couple extra seconds to start to the workshop on another batch of block amidst over stuffing the warehouse. I sent over 4000 units of cement to the market so I wouldn't be tempted to make that mistake again.

I haven't treaded mechanical parts sense last fall. The loss of iron wasn't worth the benefit of coin.

Burmistrzem w moim ratuszu jest wnuk Pierwszego Sekretarza Polskiej Zjednoczonej Partii Robotniczej i według komunistycznej propagandy- Każdy musi pracować, aby port rósł w siłę, a marynarzom żyło się dostatnio 😉

( The mayor of my town hall is the grandson of the First Secretary of the Polish United Workers' Party and according to communist propaganda - Everyone must work to make the port grow stronger, and the sailors to be prosperous😉 )

Danyport Honestly, I never calculate if it was really worth it but iron is too hard to come buy. I prefer to keep it for my upgrades then making cog to sell. I only make the cogs I need.

To me, it is much easier to farm 10,000 flags and sell them.

I didn't say that my workshop was idle. I said that consumption of iron for Mechanical Parts, wasn't worth the trade for coin.

Every two days my workshop produces 7 batches of fuel, & 35 batches block from 5,800 units of oil, & 34,200 units of cement. Ok, mabe I'm processing about 30 batches of block, because I not pulling all the cement out of the factory fast enough. (replenish time gets in the way)

The first task of every day is to pull all of the oil with one ship from the oil field. To make sure that I can do this, I make it a point not to leave my warehouse overstocked in the evening.
