Day one.

I’m sure this is going to be a slow and disappointing start. It could be a month or more before I really have people bidding on my auctions. It’s going to take time to get the PaulKrush.com site up and running and to get the right people to notice these auctions. For now I am going to start with one wax auction a day. Starting at a penny, I might have some that end under a dollar. I know the going rate is $50 for a wax like this, but I don’t care, it’s going to be that way for months. I bet one person wins over half of them because he is the only person that understands what I am doing. I’m sure most of the auctions will be won, but the winning bidder will not submit a file to be cut for whatever reason. After a while the right hobbyists will find my offering and take me up.

This is not a halfhearted attempt; I’m in this for the long run. I am planning on the site to handle thousands of models a month, most of which I will not handle physically. I see arrays of double spindle CNC mills pumping out buckets of waxes or even finished metal parts an hour. I can’t think small. In fact I am thinking about a goal of one million parts made from our systems in 2009.
