A SMALL PRINT FARM PRODUCED 120 DRONE FRAMES IN 24 HOURS AND MOST PEOPLE STILL THINK 3D PRINTERS ARE A HOBBY
A few years ago building a hardware company meant factories, tooling, overseas suppliers, warehouses, and millions in upfront costs
Now a room full of printers can manufacture drone frames around the clock with almost no human involvement. Print, remove, repeat. The machines don't stop when the team goes home
The crazy part isn't the drone
It's that manufacturing is becoming software
One design update can instantly change the next 120 units. No factory retooling. No waiting months for suppliers. No minimum order quantities
Most people still see plastic toys and desk decorations
The people paying attention see decentralized factories appearing in garages, warehouses, and spare bedrooms all over the world
The barrier to building hardware just got a lot smaller
