Feedback 26/04

We got feedback from Mr. Detand this week (26/04). He made some useful suggestions for our design:

- He suggested using the system of an ironing board cloth to attach our textile to our bottom plate.
- The flexible material we use for the handle, doesn't have to be a useful part for the table, but it has to be attached to it. It has to be in both configurations, but he doesn't find it useful to attach it to the legs of the table. It won't give much more stability to it, and it would make it a lot more difficult for the user to know how to assemble it to the legs (difficult handling).
- The textile is almost ok, for the final product we can ask someone professional to make it for us, so it has a nice look. The gaps where we insert the wooden plates would be better if it's not on the edge of the textile (difficult to find out for the user), but it would be better if it's in the middle and very clear that it can be opened.
- He also gave some useful advise for our investment plan. He suggested making it in Excel instead of Word, so we could just give in another amount of tables we want to make in a year, and the file will calculate the rest for us. We need to make a difference in fixed costs vs. variable costs, a comparison if we buy other machines (more expensive ones for high volume production), we should also calculate the cost per piece if we produce 500, 1000, 2000, ...
