FictivMade | Episode 1 - Design to Prototype

We’re putting the Fictiv platform to the test by designing our very own custom multi-tool, taking it from concept all the way to production.

In the first episode of the #FictivMade series, Fictiv’s David Willson shares how he narrowed down the concept, sketched out ideas, and built the CAD model using Onshape. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at his early design decisions and considerations for production manufacturing.

From clean skeleton sketches to planning injection molding, this episode is about laying a strong design foundation before the first prototype takes shape.

💡 Stay tuned for the next episode—where the prototypes start coming to life!
