Very Black Store makes training equipment from plywood

Very Black Store makes equipment for crossfit, gymnastics and training from plywood using the Yeti Smart Bench. It is one part of their business, which centres on selling high-quality equipment of all kinds for functional training and strength work. Their plyo boxes are made on the Yeti.

Production needed more capacity — the Yeti's price and features felt exactly right

As the order book grew, a need arose to increase production capacity. After first looking at table saws, the idea of a CNC machine came up. The Yeti Smart Bench seemed the best fit for the need.

The Yeti Smart Bench improved quality and sped up production by freeing hands from basic machining

The plyo boxes had previously been made by hand, which demanded care and precision. Bringing the CNC machine into production added accuracy, which meant better product quality, and freed hands for other productive work. What remained was mainly finishing and assembly.

Expectations were exceeded — the machine worked better and was easier to use than expected

The Yeti Smart Bench can be operated by anyone who can use a smartphone. CNC work is quickly mastered too, once you understand the basics of woodworking, for instance when it comes to fits.
