Update MEDIUM production

A problem we saw was that thee elastics, when applied, go around the bended edge so if the toolbox stands on the ground, the elastics can get damaged.
So we made the edges shorter so the elastics can pass by easily.


A next problem was the sharp edge in- en outside the hole in the metal that could damage the elastics.
So we added eyelets that fits in the holes of the panel, but have a bigger outer diameter that the diameter of the ronded shape of the corner.

Consult 16/05 Material MASS production

- Buy the ball --> can be very cheap, negotiation with companies for like the half of the price
- Compare PP, PC and ABS. Make the decision of making a quality product or a cheap one --> ALEX
- Compare the price of massproduction for injection molding and sheetmetal --> ALEX
-  Lasercut --> not the fablab! Use a professional company

Davy:
- Test how many plates you use with the tools you want to take with you
--> See if it is necessary to add a second handle or to look for a realy cheap solution for it
- Diy transport is not necessary
- How many of the attaching pieces and elastics you give to the user? --> TEST IT!!
- Cost calculation
- We are on track (y)

Jan:
