"It fits." — Michael Opitz, pointing at the back of a mega trailer. He's right. It does. Just barely. The TINY SPACE G3 was designed to travel without its own trailer. Four units per truck. That's 75% fewer transport runs. That's the whole pitch. And the loading works. We've done it. The spacers are in. The straps are set. Nothing moves that shouldn't. What nobody told us — because nobody had done it before us — is that "it fits" is only the beginning of the sentence. The full sentence is: "It fits, and you'll need to shim every unit, account for transit loads you underestimated, and build a loading process that takes longer than you planned." That's the fine print of building something new. This Friday: 60 units, biggest event we've ever done. 31 go up via mega trailer. 29 the old-school way — one trailer, one unit, one truck. Both systems in parallel. We'll see what we learn. What's a gap between "it works" and "it works reliably" that surprised you? #TinySpace #MadeInBerlin #BuildingInPublic #ProductInTheWild #FounderLife #StartupLife #Logistics #MobileWorkspace #Entrepreneurship #Berlin
