Bomb Your Shell - A Hackers Approach to Manufacturing
summary
A Seattle microfactory prints and sews spandex leggings on demand, turning scanned art into garments via an Adobe Illustrator template, digital fabric printing and 3D game-model previews so a design goes from file to photo-real mockup to finished product in days. The operation makes one or a thousand at the same unit cost, pays local seamstresses roughly 100× what Bangladeshi factory workers earn, and crowdsources art so artists upload designs for on-demand printed leggings.
