Worked with the mold builder on how to build the prototype mold to produce prototypes that Rada could use with focus groups to get true consumer feedback. Worked with the mold builder and molder to ensure that design for manufacturing was done. Recommended a finish that would have a higher quality feel, and molding texture for optimal grip, finish, mold release and mold repair capabilities.
