those are some people smugglin boxes
First order of business is making them survive drop tests - then weāll see if we can prettify them a bit.
Gosh, I didnāt realise the Glowforge was that light. He makes picking it up look so easy!
LIght? Hmm, I wonāt be able to lift it (safely) alone.
Iām with you, Rebecca. Iāve known the weight from the very beginning and will make plans to have someone be here to assist me. (I hope). My husband will be unable to help. I suppose I could just kick it into the house and across a few rooms. After all, they ARE testing it for possible damage, right?
Interesting. The company we used to test packaging always wanted the final ver. for testing for certification. shrug Really itās about structural integrity not esthetics.
Sorry, I probably should have ended my previous comment with /joke
Edit: whoops, formatting
What are you doing with the units you drop? Sending them out!?
More stress testing
An acquaintance of mine tests packaging using a large vibration table. He says itās both educational and hilarious watching things shake apart.
Itās amazing how some internal componentās mass can shake loose and pinball internally without leaving any external suggestions of the sad state within.
And, thereās this classic, enjoy:
Reminds me of a washer we had when rooming with some friends. Every time it kicked into high speed spin it would shake the trailer. Someone would always say in their best Mr Scott voice, āIf we keep this up captain sheāll fly apart.ā
The previous tenants had issues with the heater not lightingā¦ one of them attempted to re-light it & got blown into the wall, which separated from the floor, which we discovered because of the washer.
This was first-pass. We have more tests ahead.
Another one!
GO TO BED DAN, we need you rested and alert.
That was incredible. I was mesmerized by the front panel staying attached as long as it did. Iāve got to share this
Takes a licking but keeps on ticking!
Canāt I just shine a laser light near my door and have it air dropped with precision?
Thatās cruel.
