  1. Deep Thoughts By:Chock-full-o-nutz Larry Kreger JD Miknis Lance Hagerman Nicole Szekeres Josh Matz

  2. Suppliers • Must maintain contact • Allow enough time to reorder if the initial shipment is wrong • Be assertive and ask for what you want, not what they have • Remember price is negotiable

  3. Manufacturing • Have a backup plan • Remember to leave at least one hour for setup on CNC machines • Expect to get frustrated • Plan for the process to take longer than expected • Don’t manufacture during hunting season when living in Pennsylvania

  4. Manufacturing • Stock extra material so that the production run is complete INCLUDING defects • Be creative with fixturing, don’t rely on other’s work (i.e. vacuum plate) • Don’t hang on to bad ideas • Design for adaptability

  5. Design Changes • Again, don’t hang on to bad ideas • Take all advice seriously • Consider all options BEFORE making a decision • Know when to call for no more changes • The best aesthetics may not be the most manufacturable • Depend on nobody except yourself

  6. Overall We Learned… • Patience • Focusing • How to work with others • How to consider all options objectively • How to work with time constraints

  7. Overall We Learned… • Communication • Documentation of work (i.e. who you talked to and when) • Public speaking • Cost justification • Licensing issues and how to work with business associates

  8. Professors Ideas Hands on experience Concept to production Developed “soft skills” Integration of business and engineering Lack of structured syllabus Fuzzy expectations Final design approval scheduled too late in the semester Course Positives/Negatives Pros Cons
