We are only a week late posting day 2 of OpenSauce

Between the copious amounts of inspiration and the excitement to sleep in our own beds, it’s been a busy week.

Thank you to OPENSAUCE and all the fellow nerds for the great experience.
It was truly incredible meeting so many brilliant brains and seeing their ideas come to life.
A true nerds wonderland.

After being inspired by @supervaliddesigns

I fully recognize that is no longer Christmas 😂. But all of our prototype animated Christmas lights survived their first season without a single failure…. So we’re launching preorders for next season. And some of these lights have a very cool all season use that we will show off soon 🤓.

Tiny parts... big problems... this 502 nozzle was plugged by a 0201 component. Yes, that tiny spec on the end of the wire is a part. A 0.1uf capacitor to be precise.
