The reason why so many people find it hard to get LEE filters ie. being forced to wait several months on backorder is because Lee know their products are in high demand. This way they know how much to make approx, and this also helps keep the price artificially high hence why they don't want to flood the market because it would make their products cheaper - almost a degradation. It has nothing to do with their filters being handmade. Invest money in to getting new ovens to increase production.

Wow, thanks to sharing the full process, it's very interesting!

So they only automate packaging ?! Yet the production of the filter is done by hand

Wow - am surprised that they've been able to keep quality so consistently. Surely there's a machine that can dip a piece of plastic in a hot bath, and then wipe it down

Wow, it's like Mr. Rogers for grown ups. Very interesting that they used to be made from gelatin, now I understand the name.
