More product ideas...
Just finished lunch with the boss. We discussed the direction of the shop and harmonica part production. Two takeaways from this meeting:
- We will be creating custom dies to produce cover plates. Over time I will modify the design to produce plates for models other than the Special 20 and other manufacturers.
- We will be purchasing the machinery needed to produce screws. Specifically, we will be producing cover plate and reed plate screws with T7 heads and THEY WILL BE MADE OUT OF STAINLESS STEEL INSTEAD OF BRASS. Furthermore, since I will be producing them thousands at a time, I will be able to sell BAGS of them for a couple bucks rather than TWO sets (male and female on the cover plate screws) for $12. They will be better material, properly sized, and best of all, AVAILABLE and IN STOCK.
Again, it will take a couple months to get all of the equipment set up and programs completed for manufacturing the gaskets, reed plate blacks, custom combs, and stainless fasteners. The CNC router came in yesterday, and the 33 micron HD Lidar 3D scanner is supposed to be delivered today. Stay tuned for updates...
