@thepeelpodcast: A manufacturing founder explains how he bootstrapped a hardware startup with a 50,000-pound fiber laser — no VC needed. Amada's in-house bank offered him 5% down, 5% interest, 5 years. The catch? They sent a sales rep on-site first to make sure he wasn't a fraud. The rep's verdict: "You're a software guy with soft hands… but I like you." #venturecapital #startups #manufacturing #bootstrapped #founders
