Shouldn't We Reinvent the Pizza Cutter?
Pizza cutter
A few weeks ago, I used to be wanting to use one of these cheapo one-dollar type store pizza cutters, you understand the ones; stamped "made in China" to them, with a corrugated pizza blade cutting wheel. Well, to make a long frustrating story short, this didn't cut well in my thick crust pizzas. This was upsetting since i really do not each much pizza today, but my personal favorite two teams were playing during the NCAA March Madness championship games. So, I invited my local friends over as well as, you realize, you have to order several pizzas, because that is the traditional action to take.

Okay so, the pizza cutter failed the taste test, miserably or distastefully I might add. And another my buddies said; "You are always trying to build a better mouse trap at your think tank, why not once and for all design a decent pizza cutter?" Ah, nothing like an actual live prototype challenge right? Sure, and that he was right. Throughout the half-time break we have got in to a small brainstorming like session, completely random, and everyone was throwing ideas around about making a much better pizza cutter. Most of the ideas had to do with the handle along with a approach to put more leverage on it having to break or bending the rotating blade.
Other ideas had to do with a better chopping system, or even a secondary blade, or perhaps a tandem axle pizza cutter, when you can that is amazing in your head. Then, one of my pals started sketching out a different concept. Only then do we proceeded to Google to look up "new pizza cutter designs" where there were a ton of interesting patents this was filed, a few of which were the ideas we'd come up with inside our brainstorming session. Obviously it doesn't sound right to launch any patents on any ideas which may have already previously been looked at.
We wondered if we could easily get your hands on some of the people pizza cutters, try every one of them out, and put dozens of prototypes with the test. Some we have seen in the stores, others we haven't, but still others we do not have any idea should they ever got made, quite simply they may not be accessible in real life. This is a work for 3-D printing, and a lot of pizzas and welcoming a ton of friends up to test various new pizza cutter prototypes on different size crusts (eating the slices as we go), and even, we'd have to order different pizzas from different companies.
Trust me after i inform you building the most effective mousetrap, or even a better one, or anything else will always be difficult.
Obviously, that is why innovators, entrepreneurs, and inventors press on. I propose they never give up, which they strive for perfection, and something day, sometime in the near future, someone will have invented a pizza cutter which really works and is also affordable, and mass-produced and easily obtainable to the current pizza consuming public. Please consider all of this and think about it.
