Updates on Roc Camera - We're close to manufacturing. By 'Manufacturing' we consider it to be 2 parts: Printing & Assembly - Integration / QA is gating printing / assembly - one of the decisions we made early on was to not do QA at the very end, but try to do it through the entire process. You can't improve quality when the product is coming off the line (Thanks W. Edwards Deming) - We've assembled ~3 beta devices so far - We've recently made some improvements to our latest v0.8.10 hardware - which improves the way in which we manufacture / assemble our devices - But until those hardware changes are re-tested again through our printer settings, we're not ready to start the production prints - We thankfully sourced almost all our components before the tariffs hit - so we're good there - End of this month / early next month is when we are shooting for some of our first Roc Cameras coming off the assembly line - And by assembly line I mean my garage - Thank you for your patience - Can't wait to get you one

Curious; if components are fixed (you mentioned having them all ready) what other levers for production can be worked on apart from printing settings?

Mostly - it's changes around the CAD model to make it easier to manufacture. the components are fixed, but there's still hardware harnessing, procedures, soldering, assembly etc. that can be made easier - and we're trying to cut down the time / effort it takes to assemble one device

Nice, sounds like vibe manufacturing is still a bit of a way off !
