put this large block onto the machine
put this large block onto the machine and the machine then mills or cuts away

created pad drawings and 3d models so from those car drawings the treaty
from those car drawings the treaty
from those car drawings the treaty models the next step was to get a

working prototype and what was important
working prototype and what was important for a working prototype is that the

previously mentioned we were able to
previously mentioned we were able to hand sand Prime and spray so that we can
hand sand Prime and spray so that we can
hand sand Prime and spray so that we can achieve a finished product and this is
achieve a finished product and this is
achieve a finished product and this is honestly a working prototype but still
honestly a working prototype but still
honestly a working prototype but still working today over eight months and
working today over eight months and
working today over eight months and we’re very very proud of it we didn’t
we’re very very proud of it we didn’t
we’re very very proud of it we didn’t just use 3d printing in the final design
just use 3d printing in the final design
just use 3d printing in the final design we also used it through the evolution of
we also used it through the evolution of
we also used it through the evolution of the product itself so here you can see

mist so we went from very rudimentary
mist so we went from very rudimentary shapes all the way down to a smaller
shapes all the way down to a smaller

a Dutch company started up by three
a Dutch company started up by three young designers straight out of college
young designers straight out of college
young designers straight out of college so their aim was to design a set of

had never designed for mass
had never designed for mass manufacturing they didn’t have the

have the funding or money to pay for these upfront costs that the Chinese
these upfront costs that the Chinese
these upfront costs that the Chinese manufacturers ask which can be between
manufacturers ask which can be between
manufacturers ask which can be between 5,000 to 20,000 for a mold or for a part
5,000 to 20,000 for a mold or for a part
5,000 to 20,000 for a mold or for a part so what they did was they set out to
so what they did was they set out to
so what they did was they set out to design a 3d printable a headset that
design a 3d printable a headset that
design a 3d printable a headset that they can send to users to print at home
they can send to users to print at home
they can send to users to print at home what’s amazing about this is they were
what’s amazing about this is they were
what’s amazing about this is they were able to then from a product that would
able to then from a product that would
able to then from a product that would probably be between 14 to 16 parts in
probably be between 14 to 16 parts in
probably be between 14 to 16 parts in there they were able to narrow it down
there they were able to narrow it down
there they were able to narrow it down into simply six so this allowed them to
into simply six so this allowed them to
into simply six so this allowed them to focus on the electronics rather than the
focus on the electronics rather than the
focus on the electronics rather than the hardware by doing so they were able to
hardware by doing so they were able to
hardware by doing so they were able to put more money and time into electronics
put more money and time into electronics
put more money and time into electronics and able to produce electronics that you
and able to produce electronics that you
and able to produce electronics that you would expect from a high-end
would expect from a high-end
would expect from a high-end manufacturer such as Bang and Olsen or
manufacturer such as Bang and Olsen or
manufacturer such as Bang and Olsen or boss so as I say here know molding costs
boss so as I say here know molding costs
boss so as I say here know molding costs no plastic manufacture needed and in
no plastic manufacture needed and in
no plastic manufacture needed and in fact a more simplified assembly these
fact a more simplified assembly these
fact a more simplified assembly these are huge saving costs the next is the
are huge saving costs the next is the
are huge saving costs the next is the customization so for as a customer
customization so for as a customer
customization so for as a customer you’re get you get the hardware sent to
you’re get you get the hardware sent to
you’re get you get the hardware sent to you and you print it at home this allows
you and you print it at home this allows
you and you print it at home this allows you to design how you want you can
you to design how you want you can
you to design how you want you can change the color you can change the
change the color you can change the
change the color you can change the design to how you feel on the day this
design to how you feel on the day this
design to how you feel on the day this is a huge huge possibility for customers
is a huge huge possibility for customers
is a huge huge possibility for customers the next is the package is smaller its
the next is the package is smaller its
the next is the package is smaller its lighter
lighter
lighter so therefore the delivery cost is lower
so therefore the delivery cost is lower
so therefore the delivery cost is lower from factory to factory overseas and
from factory to factory overseas and
from factory to factory overseas and domestic this is a game
domestic this is a game
domestic this is a game further saving pasta and it’s absolutely
further saving pasta and it’s absolutely
further saving pasta and it’s absolutely vital printout replacement parts for
vital printout replacement parts for
vital printout replacement parts for customers who may break the headset
customers who may break the headset
customers who may break the headset that’s a nightmare to try go through the
that’s a nightmare to try go through the
that’s a nightmare to try go through the normal process of working with customer
normal process of working with customer
normal process of working with customer service in this factor you’re able to
service in this factor you’re able to
service in this factor you’re able to treaty print your own replacement parts
treaty print your own replacement parts
treaty print your own replacement parts and finally all these saving costs are
and finally all these saving costs are
and finally all these saving costs are passed on to their customers so they’re
passed on to their customers so they’re
passed on to their customers so they’re able to produce these at twenty two
able to produce these at twenty two
able to produce these at twenty two dollars rather than a hundred and forty
dollars rather than a hundred and forty
dollars rather than a hundred and forty dollars so anyway I hope that shows you
dollars so anyway I hope that shows you
dollars so anyway I hope that shows you how well 3d printing can be brought into
how well 3d printing can be brought into
how well 3d printing can be brought into your workflow and I hope you enjoy the
