Once I started receiving orders for the ray gun panels I designed in my last video ( • Creating Retro Ray Gun... ), I had to switch from product development to production mode. That meant finding ways to create the panels as efficiently as possible.

"I'm not building a submarine here, the details actually matter." 💥

Yeah when he said that it was the least sexy part, I disagreed. That was the *best* part. The logistics are so often overlooked, nice to see Wesley lean in and be so thoughtful about it.

@wyw876 10 месяцев назад

From a business-engineering perspective, the reformulation of Wesley's treatise is the old quote, "The skillset in going from zero to one, is different from the skillset in going from 1 to 10, and different from 10 to 100, and extends for each step increase in magnitude".

Wesley hi...I just wanted to say that your whole attitude, skill set , dry wit and attitude is breathtaking. I'm a 60 year old guy with a dream.. after (and still) owning a precision engineering company here in the UK, I'm looking for a 180 degrees change in life direction..so I brought a large property with outbuildings in Tuscany and looking to start a laser cutting and engraving company there...sort of have a plan...loving the omtech lasers.. After seeing you and your enthusiasm has given me that extra bit of drive...thank you.. Alfie

I was smiling nonstop as I received and unpacked my "print" of the B model. Looks absolutely fantastic, and I was really impressed with the care you took in packaging it just as meticulously as it was manufactured. Love your work and your videos and my print will be hanging someplace I will get to look at it every day. This behind the scenes look was just as fun as the original project video. Thanks for sharing!

@brianatbtacprod1989 10 месяцев назад

Very well done. It's always good idea to think about what happens if something you design actually sells, and I have to make a bunch of them. CNC, and laser engravers are a huge improvement these days too over the ways we did things in the past.

@barrishautomotive 10 месяцев назад

I received mine and it looks great. The loose hardware did slightly chip one edge of the acrylic in shipping though. Might be a good idea to secure the hardware a little better for shipping. Regardless, I love it!

@WesleyTreat 10 месяцев назад

Oh no! I'm sorry about that. No hardware should not have been loose in the package. I received one other report that the little bag split, so I imagine that's what happened here, too. I'm already looking at alternatives. Contact me through my website and I can replace the acrylic. 👍‍‍

@barrishautomotive 10 месяцев назад

@WesleyTreat Thanks Wesley. The chip is so minor that it doesn't bother me at all. I just wanted to offer that feedback so you can improve your processes.

@randallmasoner 10 месяцев назад

@WesleyTreat when I saw the screws go in the bag I thought they would split. May I suggest plastic packaging tubes, hope it helps.

What an ingenious yet rare collectible really

@korukoru2010 7 месяцев назад

Since you have the equipment maybe you could make a little cardboard insert with a cutout that runs the length of the bottom of the panel that you could slip the hardware into, It's another process but it would eliminate the hardware from moving.
