142m² assembly space
Just some tiny news inbetween, but some very important ones
Finally, I have found new rooms to rent which will be used to assemble the Pyra (and other products like Retrodes, ColUSB, MegaDrive and SNES games, etc.).
It wasn't easy finding one that is big and not too expensive, but I now have additional 142m² just for that purpose.
I already have the keys and access to the rooms. I'll start moving everything over next week as I have to handle some installations (replacing the old lights with LED panels, etc.) first.
This is a very important step in increasing assembly speed for the next units.
You can be sure I'll post pictures of the new rooms when there's something to see
Case updates
All changes that improve the case and especially make it easier (and faster) to assemble the units in the future have been applied and samples will be shipped to me soon.
Additionally, we found out that the former company used a bit different type of plastic which doesn't shrink as much. That would explain why our case felt too tight overall and needed some more manual modifications.
These updated cases, together with the missing space to assemble everything properly was the biggest slowdown in assembly right now.
So while the new cases still need to be produced and we need to move everything into the new rooms, this should speed up thing tremendously when we're done.
That's it for now. Short news - but important ones
