Although limited tablespace may not have been a complete downside - it also ment
that in almost all cases, the part you needed was somewhere within reach.

Our final build, was very easy, because we all knew what
parts were required, and how things fit.
|
We also knew where the parts were likely to be even without sorting. Our layout
for people remained the same for the last two builds, which ment that the likely
layout for parts (i.e.- what bag got to what part of the table) was
semi-consistant. I would strongly suggest splitting the friction pins and the
blue “stud” pins at the start roughly evenly between the folks building the
frame and the folks building the lower bridge.

Several of the teams we went against did a wonderful job of
sorting pieces.

The thing that slowed us the most was the lower bridge & it’s
kibble. That was the last thing complete on every build.
We had two builders on that, and it still ran slow. Maybe
three would be good.

Honestly, that may also have to do with the builders in question (I was one
of them, so I feel I can speak on this). Finding parts for the lower bridge was
tough at times, and the kibble can’t easily be built in advance (it’s all
different, and on different pages). You *can* parallel the process a good bit:
there are a number of independant (& mirrored) sub-sections that can be built
ahead of the main lower bridge core, which *could* speed up the process
considerably. We tried this on the first build, and I still think it’s a good
approach... but not on a single 4x8 foot table, which is why we switched.
