Hi,
Yep, The amount of tweaking required to get a good board build can be
extensive. Part density, ground plane, part sizes, solder type, solder
age, stencil design, board finish, and SMT pad design all add up. Tweaks
in the oven and stencil can be required to make it work.
It's the tweaking it that can get expensive fast...
