Wow this guy is definitely changing my life read his book , and let me tell you it hit hard , thank you for sharing I started 2 weeks ago , I know I wanna continue learning this and implementing.
I have definitely not studied the lean methodology but i think this way naturally.
This is just my natural thinking process on steroids.
Thanks for sharing all this wisdom Paul as i want to master this way of doing everything and pass it on to my daughter.
Repetition of a thought or idea makes it come alive. I am glad I saw this video!
Thanks Warren!
Wonderful video Paul, thanks for taking us all on great tours like this! You're changing the way I think, my whole life, and I'm loving it!
JohnGrimsmo Thanks John, you made my day@@@
Hi Paul, you are my inspiration, im just getting into lean and all your materials an book are suh a help to get understanding what it is all about, thank you
Another Great video!
hey Paul, very nice..... we have a shop here in Brazil, and we got very inspired with this video! thanks a lot for your time to show us this! cheers mate!
Caio.
+Cruz na Ilha That is great to hear. That is why I make these videos. When you start making before/after videos, I would love to see them. Here is a link to my website where there is a lot more information available on lean. 2secondlean.com/
Where can we get the Thank You Stickers? Such a great idea!!
This is awesome!
I couldn't agree with your more. They are lean standouts!!! Paul
Paul, I love your videos, you are a great teacher. Could you do a video to explain the other lean stuff like Kanban, Kaizan, takt time & Value stream mapping? Keep up the great work. Putting FastCap on my bucket list. - Mark
Navisworker Thanks Mark!!! Here is a link to a show I did on Kanbans (th-cam.com/video/z38Zo76KmO0/w-d-xo.html). Also, there are several others. Just search kanban in my channel. We aren't doing Value Stream Mapping any more. We have reduced lean to just a few things. Know the EIGHT WASTES (th-cam.com/video/ykVGi5dlb2k/w-d-xo.html). Then you can see wastes everywhere. If you can see wastes in everything, you should be able to see the value activity without formally doing Value Stream Mapping. Keep in simple (and fun!). Paul
Hole saw trick: bend a couple of the teeth inwards so it cuts the plug slightly undersized. Two opposite teeth will work well and not impinge removal too much.
@10:00 I wonder why the plug that he supposedly just cut out of a wood textured board has white laminate on it... and it burns because the teeth are not sharpened for wood cross cutting and the teeth stagger is not sufficient for wood, I stagger them more even for metal and it allows a bit free-er cutting
Paul, you'll have to come back to Suzhou and see the Pants Building that is now complete and the centre piece of the largest shopping mall in Asia.
I would love to do that. Give me a location address so I can look on Google maps so I know where I need to go the next time I’m there! Please get ahold of me via Voxer or WhatsApp (+13609413748). That is how I like to communicate. Paul
If FastCap is going to open a factory or an office in China, please hire me. I love this inspiring company.
Yongfu Zhang I will be in China on 9/10/15 in the Ningbo area and we are seriously considering opening a plant. I would like to meet you. Contact me at paul@fastcap.com
Paul, will you divulge the secret to the hole saw? Is it being redesigned and for sale soon at Fastcap?
Bend a couple teeth inwards so it cuts the plug undersized
@@JesseHughson Are they being sold by Fastcap yet?
WHERE DO I GET THAT TAPE DISPENSER TOOL? 1:25
+nineballcornerpocket I checked with Greg. They modified a 3M model 310 dispenser.
Ok, whats the secret with the holesaw?
Bend a couple teeth inwards so it cuts the plug undersized
Unless they have a paid lunch time they violate federal law. The employee is entotled to leave the work site...
Robert your ridiculous you don’t get it the purpose of this video is to show how they’re building a team not for you to nitpick the details that the owner of the company is perfectly aware of.
Unless you've worked in an absolute rat-hole of a company, it's really difficult to fully appreciate these interviews.
Another Great video!
Thanks a lot!!! Paul
