Replying to @noxmetals
@noxmetals absolutely goated, all this for $200 is crazy, would be paying close to $400 from the supplier my lab's shop uses for all this, but hey almost all of the aluminum stock for the CNC lathe otw now!

Beckhoff CX1020 machine controller: 1 CPU core, 256MB RAM M1 iPad Air: 8 CPU cores, 8GB RAM
Nox Metals has to be the top consumer of M1 iPad Airs from Back Market. Suspiciously cheap. Every human-machine interface needs to be performant and responsive. A fresh box comes in every week.

So verticalized that we print our own robotic arm wrist-cam mounts because our vendor doesn’t include them

Critical path to automate bar saw tending: Remove piece from saw -> Deburr -> Clean -> Quality check -> Pack Our saw programs often last >1hr, cutting dozens of pieces out of a single raw bar. Fail to automate any one of these tending steps- and you need a human at the saw the entire time. Appreciate Ryan and Swapnil for showing us progress on our automated cutting cell. This will free up our technicians to do more value added work, increasing capacity and driving down costs for our customers further. Stoked to share time lapses shortly of fully autonomous cutting/packing.

Mystery solved. It was the awesome crew the Savills who have been a great help with our westward expansion
To my mysterious benefactor who shipped us ~300 cans of white monster with no name or return address… you have accelerated reindustrialization. Thank you

This is an amazing tool by the @uptool_ai team. I highly recommend people try it for metal procurement.
We built the Google Flights of Metal - a free tool that scans availability and pricing across a dozen online metal distributors in one click. We hope it saves you time and money. Let us know what you think: uptool.com/materials @noxmetals @zanehengsperger

Hearing about these sold out showings for You Can See Everything in the bay. I watched it in a nearly empty theater here in Detroit and have no one to talk about it with at work

Don’t call or text. Deploying the systems to scale this another couple orders of magnitude without a proportional increase in overhead
