      Should the finish sprayers be wearing respirators? Yes. And actual goggles, not just impact=resistant safety glasses. Some of the finishers were complaining that these glasses didn't block the spray from hitting their eyes... These are some of the many violations pointed out in the comments of the Wyrmlife videos where Doug talked about hating safety regulations.

      @@TaikoNoTetsujin I have found that OSHA regulations are strict in many cases and surprisingly loose in others (it does not always make sense). I don’t know what the specific rules in this case would be… I am just speaking in broad terms from my experience with warehouse and factory work.
      It would be wise to require respirators though, even if it is not a specific rule, to prevent potential lawsuits in the future.
      All that said, we may have been getting a staged performance that did not require anything (to which it would have been wise to say so).

      In a world where the customer might need a replacement part or want an upgrade, this method is far better.
      Programmable machining SHOULD limit a lot of the variables that would be inevitable in a “by hand” production model (the quality of the machines will matter of course). Limiting those variables makes it a lot easier to get correct-fitting new accessories or replacement parts years after the initial purchase.
      That said, there is still a decent amount of “by hand” processes in the video, so it probably makes for a nice balance in the process.

    Remember a few years ago when they did the video where Doug et. al. were complaining about safety regulations? And the guy at the finishing booth was complaining that the safety goggles weren't stopping the spray from hitting his eyes? And so many commenters pointed out that he wasn't wearing safety goggles, he was wearing impact-resistant glasses which do absolutely nothing in regard to spray? I see not much has changed. (He wasn't wearing any kind of respirator either.)

    • @JerryCunningham-lx3lw

      In an industrial spray booth, respirators or not required or recommended. OSHA requires that the booth fan(s) move at least 100cfm of air per square foot of the filter plenum. They instantly remove any overspray and fumes from the booth. These booths suck out so much air, they actually need specialized HVAC called air make up units to pump fresh air back into the plant. Otherwise the negative pressure would be so great you couldn't open the doors.

      @@HonestAuntyElle Mortise and tenons can be pulled off with a table or miter saw with adjustable height, a drill press, and some wood chisels. They can be surprisingly labor intensive and getting a good fit requires some patience.
      If you don’t mind gluing your table frame together permanently, there are a few easier options that are not quite as strong, but should be strong enough.
      Pocket holes are relatively cheap, fast, and easy, but I would not use them if you are putting a lot of heavy stuff on your table (like tons of Dwaven Forge products). For general gameplay, they should be fine. Pocket holes require a pocket hole jig, specialized drill bits (that should come with your jig kit), and special screws.
      Dowels are a bit cheaper but require a bit more work to align than pocket holes (not terribly so)… they use glue and function very similar to a tenon joint, so they are stronger. Dowels will require a jig, dowels, and a normal drill bit.
      And actually, you can even use a combination of both pocket holes and dowels if you want to.

      Industrial engineering my dude! Usually you start with listing out the processes used to make the prototype, and assign an estimate of how long each process takes and what things can be done in what order. Then, by making a Gantt chart, you visually see where your time sinks are and can start making decisions on what processes can be improved with different machines, and if it makes sense for the volume of work. A lot of the machine decisions are based on your design and could end up changing that very design to accommodate machine limitations, but lots of iterations and planning. And money.... Lots of money lol

If I’m paying myself $20/hr, that $600 in labor. Add the 120 board-feet (and 20% waste) at about $550 and that leaves $850 for hardware, finishing, and inventory.

    Great video! I'm curious if the process is the same still. I'm very excited to get my table. I just wish I didn't have to wait 8 months to get it delivered...

    While I know not all of your products are so detailed in their creation, I would love to see more videos like this about your other products, pens, desks, accessories, dog beds ;)

    Would you show your man applying the seal coat some love and give him a mask, so doesn't inhale the aerosoles and get cancer or COPD!?
    Otherwise, loved the video! :)

    This whole video, I'm missing where the inside bed of the table is added. Where's the bottom that goes in between the Apron?

    No respirators for all the sanding/spraying?
