I Tried to IMPROVE My Product… Then Built THIS! - Disc Dyeries

The Spin Dye Jig Rig has been one of my best-selling products for years… but also one of the most misunderstood. So I decided to redesign it. What started as a few small improvements quickly turned into a deep dive into 3D printing, product design, failed prototypes, print issues, ergonomics, tolerances, and eventually… a completely new system built from the ground up. In this video, I walk through: • Why I redesigned Dave's Spin Dye Jig Rig • The problems with the original version • What I learned from years of 3D printing • How I improved the design while using LESS material • The story behind the new D.A.V.E.’S system • The expanding pulley mechanism that inspired it • And where this project is headed next D.A.V.E.’S stands for: Dave’s Automatic Variable Expander System It’s a new auto-centering disc dyeing jig that uses an expanding pulley mechanism to grip either the inner or outer rim of a disc. And honestly… this might just be the beginning. Would love to hear your thoughts in the comments. What would YOU want in the ultimate disc dyeing jig? If you’re a Dyers Guild member, I’ll be opening prototype access before the public release because I want real feedback from real disc dyers before this thing officially launches. https://dyersguild.co/product/daves-s... ⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘⫘ If today’s video inspired you to start your own disc dyeing journey, don’t forget—you can find everything you’d ever need over at the Dyers Guild website, where we’ve made disc dyeing easy.
