The $39 Mustache Comb: The Start-Up Guide to Manufacturing

CONGRATULATIONS You've crafted the finest (and only ) Internet-connected mustache comb. And you've managed to put together an awesome prototype that works every time. Then you built three more just to prove you could do it. If you had to, you could probably build twenty of them. But could you build a thousand? How about one hundred thousand?
To reach the low price that consumers have come to expect, you must produce a large quantity of your product in an efficient way so that the individual price becomes low. To set up efficient production you must design your product with care, select the right materials, choose appropriate fabrication processes, and invest in expensive tooling. Is this easy? No, but it is possible.

THE $39 MUSTACHE COMB is your guide to navigating the manufacturing jungle so that you can bring your revolutionary product to life. In this step-by-step guide, you will learn about:

- Manufacturing Processes
- Design for Manufacturing
- Tooling Costs and Budgeting
- 3D Printing and Prototyping
- Schedules and Timeline
- Documentation and Drawings
- Vendor Selection
- And the ridiculous story of the $39 mustache comb
