You have obviously not seen the scene where Doug says that anyone drinking on the job would be instantly fired and Ian is passing by in the background with a bottle of beer...
I don't know why, but the transition from the guy using a mallet to Down With The Sickness with the end card made me just burst out laughing. Also, congrats Gates!
I love how Karen is like a background NPC right now, working away at something. You try to talk to her, but she's running calibrations on the main battery.
After having ran both a 3 and a 5 axis cnc machine for a living once upon a time, I absolutely loved that bit. There's nothing worse than starting a cut, having management come down and want to talk to you, and during that conversation they pull you away from the E-Stop and then the vacuum has a break somewhere. Then you have to run your butt off to try and save it before the spindle cuts through a loose piece of material and either does some serious damage to a part, or chucks it loose in a random direction at high speed. With my luck, that is what happened 90% of the time someone would come down from on high to ask me silly questions about our process. Once had a bit of Lexan fling itself through and embed itself seven inches into the metal siding of the building during one of these talks. Stay behind that cutting shield, stay beside that E-Stop. Weird things can happen when you spend your days operating a CNC. You'll either get so bored out of your mind you'll want to eat your own face, or you'll have interesting near death experiences to tell your children.
Not CNC, but similar experiences. I actually got fired from a job for telling upper management they would have to wait till the current run was completed.
That owed money is still owed money. When you complete your obligation of sending them the products they have ordered, they are obligated to pay it (within the terms of the invoice period such as 30/60/90 days). After that they are, in basic terms, defaulting on that credit you provided as that was the contractual arrangement. Only way they could maybe get out of it is by declaring bankruptcy, which even that does not outright wipe the debt they owe you. TLDR: You ship, they don't pay, then as doug might say..."GET FRANK ON THIS"
To add a view to the whole business to business, net 30 thing: If you (as a consumer/customer) use a credit card, it is basically the same thing, except the credit card company steps in an says "Ok we took care of the business, now you have 30 days to pay US instead".
Inject that NET30 talk directly into my veins. With B2B transactions, does WW/KS have an accounting/collections person to take care of those interactions? Because if a client isn’t paying, that is exactly what collections is for.
I started in a cabinet shop at the start of the year, primarily as a CNC operator, and it's hilarious to me how accurate some of these clips are. Yes a CNC is at least that loud, and many things in the shop are fixed by smacking the right part with a hammer. Love that the content here reflects what I see at work. Wyrmwood does look more fun though!
Congrats Gates and family! I really like how you have been featuring more people on the team, like Ian. It seems like you've really balanced out the amount of time you have Doug on, along with other members of the team.
My favorite is when it's net 30 but they don't start counting the 30 until they "process" the invoice which can take two weeks, and then after the 30 days you have to wait for their next "check run" to get paid. Suddenly all said and done your net 30 is more like 60 - 90 days.
Congrtats Gates! Those Dispel dice are looking GORGEOUS! That CNC convo was hilariously well-timed to censor the one guy we needed to listen to lmao. Oh, and Ian, you klutz! lmao
>_> I was expecting the post outro clip to be a JV check in, but Down with the sickness leading into Ian putting the 3 second rule to the test works too.
Your target dimension is .629”? If that’s the case, a “Go/No Go” gauge that runs the full width of your longest accessory may be your QA/QC personnel’s best friend. It would allow your operators to very quickly and easily verify, not only that the dimension is within tolerance, but also ensure that the piece hasn’t warped to such a degree that the “smile” prevents it from fitting properly. One gauge is built such that the gap is at the max allowable tolerance; if the piece doesn’t fit, take another pass through the sander. The other gauge is built so that the gap is .001” smaller than your minimum tolerance. If the piece fits, it’s garbage. Also, Christaldi said the cupholder was over by .005”. He said it was supposed to be .629” and his vernier caliper was readin .640”. Call me crazy, but that’s not a difference of five thou-that’s 11 thou. Five thou is the thickness of 1-2 pieces of copier paper (.125mm). Eleven thou is between 3-5 pieces of copier paper. That’s a big difference. I’d love to see a Wyrm Lyfe episode centered on your QA/QC Dept. I mean, if y’all are going to be operating at damn near “automotive” levels of precision, you’re going to have to plus up the QA/QC shop, your in-process checks, daily machine calibrations, and tooling inspections. Requiring operators to check each piece, or every ten pieces also allows operators to more easily identify the conditions under which shit starts going pear-shaped, so they can react to it immediately and get back on the straight and narrow, without having to call Ian or Cristaldi. The Japanese Auto Industry perfected something called “SPC” (Statistical Process Control). It uses data from random daily samples to build a picture that can help you know when to change a tool before it starts creating parts that are out of spec. It can also identify which operators require more training. It can tell you so much about every facet of your process, just using data collected by a dedicated and highly-trained QA/QC professional. All of that said, it’s easy as hell for me to sit here in my quiet house and armchair quarterback, knowing jack shit about your internal processes, budget constraints, or any other number of limiting factors. I’m only opening my big mouth because I just want to see you guys succeed-for the Massachusetts crew and for Keystone. Much love and respect, y’all John
considering he was at the machine that glues planks together, he was probably making sure that a piece is either secured or in a tighter fit by hammering in a piece or a wedge.
That guy going to town with the mallet makes me think of that Dewey Cox Scene scene when he's woodworking with Darlene during the "Let's Duet" song. And now I wonder why you guys haven't cut that up and thrown it in a video yet.
Not sure if this was already mentioned here, but in this movie theres a strange diagonal checkered pattern everytime the camera moves around. Other than that, keep it up, love this show!
Those that buy Wyrmwood furniture products need to pay what they owe! Also congrats to Gates and his wife!!!!!!! Name the baby Katalox. Suggestion made. I have spoken.
6:02 Mood. 😎💯 Congratulations to the new parents!! 🍾🥂 Gates baby names? Oh, so many to choose from... Pearl, Star, Castle, McFadden (Trek nerds will get it) Seriously? Name the baby after the favorite elder friend/relative. You don't want the young one getting harassed by some jerk's brat. It helps if you've got great stories about their namesake, so the young one knows it's a name to be proud of, so they can stand their ground against an infant Karen... Even if you do name her Bobbie.. 😉💖
Just send big Tony, he would win all intimidation checks, so you are fine. In case things get tough just give him a new T20, just in case. I swear, everyone will pay.
Paul: "This will be our most viewed clip yet" Bobbie: proceed to upload clip to yt Why Bobbie, one might get the idea you don't want twich to have any major exclusive announcements so that they won't surpass wyrmlyfe XD
