Things I Learned Outsourcing My Parts (feat. @XometryHQ )

For years now, I’ve had ideas to create a series of workholding accessories for the PocketNC. The problem was always my free time, or lack thereof. When Xometry reached out to me about collaborating on a project, I knew this would be the perfect way to kick-start the WWU - Winston Workholding Universe. Xometry is an on-demand manufacturing service offers a wide range of capabilities with nearly instant quoting via an advanced, AI-driven pricing engine. For this project, they would handle getting my parts made, while I focused on the design. In this video, I’ll go over the things I learned in designing my parts, having them prototyped out-of-house, and putting it all together.
