Liquid Instruments- Daniel Shaddock – Ep 125

Liquid Instruments- Daniel Shaddock – Ep 125  Daniel Shaddock is the CEO and Founder of Liquid Instruments (LI). LI makes high precision scientific equipment.  They take the complexity of the physical world and push it into the digital world using software and high powered computers.  Some of their devices are used by NASA on the space shuttle. They are measuring changes along the lines of a nanometer over the distance of a mile in space.  Even though they have some very high-tech tools, they are also making simpler measurement tools used at the university level. One of their more popular tools is the Moku Go.   Number one tip: Things will take longer than you expect but don’t lose hope. Set agressive goals, its better to set aggressive goals and miss by 20% than set easy goals you will hit.

With Onshape, you no longer need an expensive workstation - all of the heavy lifting is done in the cloud - things like rendering and creating large assemblies can be done on inexpensive devices.  Onshape is a professional tool like Solidworks. It was actually created by the same founders as Solidworks.   I have used Onshape and if feels just like Solidworks, with all the same commands. So, if you are a current Solidworks user, it’s a very easy transition.   I highly recommend the engineers and product developers listening to consider using Onshape for their businesses.  You can try it for free at Onshape.pro/EngineeringEntrepreneurPodcast or click the link in the description.  The Engineering Entrepreneur Podcast is produced by Scott Tarcy, President of CADdesignhelp.com. You can reach me at [email protected].

Hi this is Scott Tarcy and welcome to the Engineering Entrepreneur Podcast I’m a mechanical engineer and the president of CADdesignhelp.com. My company does CAD work and prototyping. I love designing and inventing products and creating businesses around that activity. There are many podcasts out there about entrepreneurship and a few about inventing, but I have yet to find a podcast specifically about the engineering and technical side of entrepreneurship Since I couldn’t find the exact podcast that interests me as a design engineer and entrepreneur, I decided to go out and create it myself My strategy with this podcast is to interview engineers, designers and inventors who have created businesses around their inventions and products I specifically want to focus on the engineering and design side of their products and inventions
