Some personal stuff - and prototypes building!

[jutleys]

When Pyra enters mass production how many built per week i know the days of when Craig was around they were banging out around 250 units pw then that went up.

They're supposed to be slightly easier to assemble, with no light pipes to worry about, which should speed things up. But at the end of the day, it depends on the number of people assembling units, and their experience in doing it. 50 units a day sounds achievable after a little practice to me, but I don't really know.

Oh man... there I am out with the flu for 3 weeks, and all the stuff is happening!

So to start off: my condolences for your loss.
Second: very nice news so far and a cool video of the first parts

Keep up and go to sleep from time to time

soooooo did the glue dry

 

[Coupo]

The glue is dry, when I say... no wait... It is done when its... dry... glue...done...

Stop confusing me

 

[docbroke]

Which glue you are talking about ?

 

[crazyhorse]

The glue on the assembled prototype cases

 

[EvilDragon]

The glue did dry and I even continued to assemble prototypes and make pictures (the full lid is assembled), but I still seem to need a bit more sleep than usual, so I didn't post anything here yet.
The fact that our hockey team has reached the semi-finals right now doesn't help (as it means I need to do a lot of video stuff as well right now), but I'm still moving along

Meanwhile, here is another video from the testrun at the new company:

A few more parts have been produced. I should receive a black set soon

I have no glue (I hope this is a joke because I’m not that good in English )

A new term came to mind when I saw that pair of nubs on a sprue at the end of the clip. Nubcaps.

nubs on a stick

Did anyone ever make a render of what a Pyra would look like if every individual plastic piece were a different color? Not that I really want one built that way, but it would be a good tool to show what the parts assembly looks like.

Nubs on a stick! Come getcha nubs on a stick! At these prices I'm really cutting my own throat etc...

Tha was about previous three posts ( in reference to flu (with running nose) and glu ). Yes it was a joke.

Nice to see this company is showing bits of the proces

 

[EvilDragon]

Yes, now that their big project with the deadline (and penalty payment if not met) is over, they actively work on the Pyra
What's scary: Once the cases are done and okay, they can produce them within two weeks :O

 

[ClockworkCoder]

Looks like you may be needing some help @EvilDragon !

 

[Hồng Thất Công]

This one on the left...

Can anyone else visualize that as a fire breathing dragon with a long tail sitting up on his haunches facing left...?

Should've used this as the official Pyra logo...

The shape reminds me in the little animals which had to be rescued in Cosmic Ark

2 weeks ???? No way!

It's two months or the highway!
