I have learned a variety of valuable lessons about design, manufacturing, and even working with customers. One that stands out is how your first idea often times won't be the best idea. Sitting down with a team of engineers to discuss solutions is always beneficial, and even if you have an idea that may work, continuing to brainstorm can lead to a much more developed idea, and maybe a much better solution.
