The Shop Floor
The evergreen method library. Tactical pieces on AI, operations, and structure for small manufacturers, organized by topic. No schedule — published when there's something worth keeping.
Substrate and Renders
The 47 spreadsheets are renders of objects you never built — so they drift. Consolidating just makes sheet #48. Find the five or six real objects your shop runs on, build those, and let the sheets become disposable views you generate and throw away. Why that just got cheap enough to do.
Ownership and Lock-in
The website is the small, visible version. Every SaaS tool you pay for runs the same play — holds your source, rents you back the render. How to own your source instead, why that flipped from expensive to cheap this year, and where to start. The tactical companion to Standing Next to the Shaft.
Records and Structure
What a shared customer record actually is, what goes in it, and how to stand one up this week. The tactical companion to The Mahindra Call.
