Assembling the First Batch

by Jacqueline L

Hello again!

This will be a shorter than usual update, since we’re currently up to our necks in work. Specifically -

Assembly Has Started!

Our shipment of cases arrived on time, and so we’ve launched right into assembling the first production batch of Tangaras!

At time of writing, we’ve just wrapped up our first half-week of assembling units, with 34 fully assembled, flashed, tested, and packaged. This is a slower pace than what we need to be hitting, but this is largely as expected since this first week has been focused on ramping up on our assembly process. We’ve been fine-tuning our jigs, working out efficient sub-assembly stages, and better organising ourselves and our stock.

The next step from here is assembling more units. Then, we’ll be assembling more units. Wish us luck!
