D3D Pro Collaborator Invitation Email
Hi -
Thanks for the order - as that will get you trained up in design and prototyping - so hopefully you can contribute to our efforts as well in the future.
We can schedule a webinar once you receive your kit - so no problem as we will run a webinar every month. Does that work for you?
In the meantime - we'll get the kit out to you within 3 weeks - but need your address. Please go to our form and submit your address information. If you can share a post on FB or social media regarding your kit - we can also attract more people - so if you can do so - please do and tag me - https://www.facebook.com/marcin.jakubowski.378. All the info is in the Form.
As you notice - this is all about collaborative design - so once you build out your kit - there will be other ways you can collaborate. That may include producing parts, participating in design/build Incentive Challenges, joining our Dev Team, prototyping, and more. As we said in our product description -
"We can train you to produce 3D printed parts for D3D Pro for us – using this very same D3D Pro printer. If you learn our distributed quality control procedures – we can certify you to be an authorized part supplier – and we will buy parts from you at the same full-accounting cost that it would take us to produce the parts in house. We are interested in win-win situations where open source economics become a de-facto standard – just like open source software has now become a de-facto standard. You can help us get there. We can also train you to produce the 3D printers themselves – either independently or certified under the OSE brand."
What is a Product Collaborator? It's a person that we cultivate. Someone who supports our work by getting their hands on our machines - where it is likely that by using our machines, you will be encouraged to learn, build your skill set, contribute to open source designs of real products, and join an effort much greater than yourself to usher in a collaborative economy. This is true to our mission: "Collaborative Design for a transparent and inclusive economy of abundance" - a win-win for all. It's up to you how much you engage in collaborating with us - the opportunity is clearly there.
Anyway - thanks for your support - and please fill this Product Collaborator Form with your address and a couple of other details.
