Basically, you need to know small tricks of the industry trade, like Material research which cuts down on the number of minerals that you use to make the said product. CCP aren't going to let you make profit from manufacturing straight away, otherwise everyone will be doing it!

If you're really interested in manufacturing, try looking for a manufacturing corp. Also, there's a few skills in the industry and science section that you should train up to get more profit out of your manufacturing business.

Linkage

The link isn't that up-to-date but the basics are there...and maybes I just ruined the secret of manufacutring and all the profit is gone for us industry folks....or maybe not, who cares..

But it can be made profitable if you're told how by people who care and know what they're on about. Of course, ou make much more profit with tech II items, but you can make it work at tech I if you heed advice.

In my calculations I assumed that all involved skills are maxed and with 0.0 wastage. Still I've found that most of the T1 stuff produced is worth less as the minerals from wich it is made

Oh right, specifics plz? You're probably in a back water region where people just want to dominate the market, so they mine their minerals and then sell then, hence making profit no matter what apart from a loss of time.

Ignore the doom and gloom merchants above.
You can make money selling T1 stuff, admitedly not so easily with the T1 ships as the margins on those can be scraped to the bone but with a good choice of components. ie. stuff that is constantly in demand.
Try looking at ammo, that is virtually allways producing a profit with a good turnover.

Is there actually any way to profit producing tech 1 gear?

Don't listen to all the doom and gloom merchants.

There are reasonably well populated areas of Eve with very underseeded markets, and that is where the ISK is.

If you see modules for sale for under the ISK value of the minerals, buy them, refine them, and sell the minerals, or use them to produce something with even a small profit margin.
Better than mining.
