Back in the day, designers, engineers and shop workers were forced into the same open environment. Essentially, design and manufacturing teams were tightly coupled so folks who drew could see how their ideas translated. Necessary changes were made on the spot. My question is: Is there anything for virtual teams that accomplish the same idea?

Your identity that you claim is quite frankly who you'll be. Claim your identity and show up. For me it has been: 1 / Scientist. Of the heavens, of the body, of the mind, whatever on our planet and in the universe that can be better understood. 2 / Builder. Of technologies, of businesses, of teams. 3 / Family person. Son, father, grandfather, brother, cousin, nephew. 4 / Patriot. Of the greatest country that has given me opportunity to do all of the above. I was lucky enough to know from a young age the identity I wanted to claim, because it made it easier to show up. I know it's a luxury that a lot of people don't have but it may be a worthwhile exercise to get to clarity and then... SHOW UP! Thoughts???

The magic of what we do is that we roll up our sleeves every day to change the outcome of a pursuit destined for failure. 1 / Most people do the opposite. Don't be the type of person who wakes up with the mindset that you'll fail at something destined for success. 2 / Both paths are up to you. It's all invented anyway. 3 / Good morning all! Let's get to work. Sincerely, Dan

Have been discussing additive manufacturing with a friend. His argument was that additive manufacturing can't handle every process. If I’m not concerned about the surface finish, I could use additive manufacturing. However, if surface finish is a priority, it may not be the right tool. For instance, CNC machining can achieve a surface roughness between one-tenth to one-fiftieth of a millimeter. Imagine making a shaft that needs to spin smoothly. It may often be cheaper to produce that part using a CNC machine. Another problem is the occasional presence of tiny bubbles in the material, which can create stress concentrations. For example, in a copper thrust chamber, these bubbles could affect conduction and potentially fail under stress. As a manufacturing engineer, it’s essential to look at the whole picture. You need to be a well-rounded, 360-degree engineer. Thoughts???
