#4How much did these trays cost?
We were optimizing for speed so didn't really shoot for optimizing costs as much. It cost us about $6.61 in material costs and $5.25 in laser cutting time.

#5I don't get how this was such a last-minute, all-nighters-all-round thing. Would it really have been so bad to take 4 weeks and do it properly?

#6Cool insight, thanks for that.
How long (on average) does a delivery take once you pickup the processed order from Starbucks? Have you guys measured any significant differences in temperature?

I don't think one more week would have made that much of a difference (rather than, say, a couple of months). Seems like they came up with a solid solution anyway.

This is complete speculation, but I'm guessing that the Starbucks deal happened late (as does any deal between higher executives that don't have to implement it), and the dealmakers wanted it running as soon as possible.

#10Feels like it should be 5 five cups, with another one in the center. Unless you know you need to keep them a fixed distance from the perimeter.
