Make this change to the RPM on the SMC

As you all know by now, the first 10 proud owners of the Shukuma dolly received their units and started playing with their kits.  We have a few small glitches that crept in but NOTHING that can not be fixed or overcome.

The first suggestion I have for you all is to change the RPM of the motor!

Small glitch with limit switch

Unforeseen issue

I picked up a small problem with some of the limit switches that's already been mailed / delivered.  All of them have been tested before packaging but it seems like a small problem still creeped in, despite the successful testing.  Some seems to not function properly.

This is taking up way more time than I thought it would so it's slow going, but it looks nice!

It’s hard getting things of this caliber done in South Africa

R200.00 does not equal R350.00 - Or does it :-(

It has been a rough of couple of days and it still is! I must be honest and say that last week I thought I would have to break the news to everyone who ordered a Shukuma dolly... I really thought that the predetermined delivery date of 31 Aug 2012 will not be met. Luckily it doesn't seem like I have to postpone the date.

From playing with dollies to producing a product

The dream becomes a business

I am soooo exited to see the progress of the Shukuma DOLLIES!!

It's been a couple of weeks since the engineer started with the CNC work on the dollies and the motor block and motor cover is now complete.  All I can say is WOW!
