Something he forgot to mention: ALWAYS make sure to calibrate your scale before you weigh anything if the measurements are supposed to be precises. Use lab grade weights to ensure that your scale can accurately measure weight down to the tenth, hundredth, and possibly thousands depending on the product. The worst thing you could do is have a good relation with a manufacturer, decided to test their product some day and your scale not be calibrated properly. Causing some sort of dispute over who’s equipment is properly calibrated and if one party is getting screwed over. Which could possibly lead to a strained relationship between the manufacturer and seller. Always calibrate your scales guys regardless of the business:)
@@hx7004Zeroing and calibration are different. Zeroing just tells the scale "there's nothing here so you should read zero" Calibration is putting precise, lab-grade weights on the scale to see if it reads how it should.
Thanks for the explanation about GSM. When I go shopping with my wife, I would hold the fabric up to the lighting to see through it. When you are looking for something warm you don't want to see light through the fabric.
Right; I'm confused about why I'm cutting holes in clothes to determine the GSM. I'm going tell my manufacturer what GSM I wish to order. Once received if it's not the same product or to my liking; I will return it. I don't know what the purpose of cutting the fabric is. 😭😭😭
Back in the day I had a Johnny Blaze hoodie and I swear that hoodie was the heaviest thickest fabric I have ever seen. I’ve yet to come across a manufacturer that sells a hoodie that thick.
I think ppl were understand your question incorrectly. Are you asking how you "initiate" the conversation regarding tolerance/ how to get an agreement regarding tolerance/ how to have a contract regarding your product to be within X % spec. Typically when you deal with a manufacturer you have a basic outline. Let's say Shirts / Hoodies. Manufacturer will give a price for say 500 Hoodies. However if you order 1000 the price per unit drops by a certain percentage. Say you buy 2000 pieces ...price should decrease. Typically manufacturers have a range 1 piece - 100 is X per item. 101-499 500-999 and so on. Once you have how many pieces ... then comes what those pieces entails. Manufacturers charge depending if it's 1 color vs multiple in the design. Once all the nuts and bolts are agreed upon- then comes the added details. Product must be within WHAT YOU AND THE MANUFACTURER feel is reasonable regarding % of tolerance. How much you're willing to be comfortable with if X y z is slightly off. If they say this hoodie is good for one thousand washes and gets ruined after 6 ...we have a tolerance issue. Button up EVERY SINGLE DETAIL. Explain to the manufacturer you trust them which is why you 🤝 to work together. But you also have to deliver a product to YOUR CUSTOMERS and they have expectations to. And by having this in place ensures that everybody is accountable- and if there's ever an issue it allows for better quality control on both ends. Save samples so if there's issues down the line from 1 product to another you can see if there's a difference. And this goes for any and all fields. Your contract [even though most overseascourts don't give a fuck about an agreement in the US unless A MAJOR COMPANY] should still outline everything. Every single step should be covered. How many. How much. Deliver Date. Staggered Payment schedule. Shipping 411. Tolerances. Expectations. Material quality. Some want materials sourced from X so proof of sourcing materials with validation. ☆ I deal with web design and merchandise .... I've seen a MAJOR SHIFT where China whom was once a leader in making products for US sellers has now gone to India. There's an actual battle between China / India fighting for source material to slow the other from producing everything from clothing to fn salt lamps! This has had a significant affect on China economy wise. Pakistan and Africa are also playing a role. I have a feeling India will eventually take over China as the dominant manufacturer....but the quality won't be as good. China has perfected and streamlined most manufacturing .... has qcc checks. We give China shit for being "cheap " but they're efficient and hardworking.
As a person who just started following you i would like to see the quality of your products that's on the website, been thinking about King the lifetime membership you offer just your website don't gone all the content of what you describe in your video's, sizing some don't say gsm, i spills like to learn more about yall products to sum it up.
True that but I think this is just an industry standard method with the specific cutter and scales. Stops any sneaks doing a fabric swap if you take the sample from the final product as well.
Easier yet is just cut a 10 by 10 cm cut, and weight that. You can take that from the garment as any garment will have enough fabric for such a cut. Weight it and just multiply what you get by a hundred, as what you cut is 100 square cm while square meter is 10,000 square cm... So if your 10 by 10 cm weighs 2.3 gr, the fabric is 230 gsm...
I'm not sure what the exact diameter of the cutting circle is but it looks like it could be between 11 and 12 cm. By using the pi x radius squared formula, you can work out the area of the fabric as 100 centimetres squared which equates to a square with the dimensions of 10cm x 10cm or 10 square centimetres (note the difference between "square centimetres" vs "centimetres squared". "Square centimetres" relates to dimensions, i.e., the number of squares of a given size that occupy the length and height of a bigger square. This tells us the sized of the bigger square. Versus "centimetres squared" which relates area. This tells us the total number of squares of a given size required to fill the total area of a bigger square). If we take this 10cm x 10cm square as our basic unit of area, we could fit 100 of these basic square units into a square with the dimensions of 1metre high x 1metre wide. Therefore, if we know the weight of the basic unit of fabric in grams, we can simply find out what the grams per square metre (gsm) of a 1metre x 1metre fabric is, by just multiplying the weight of the basic unit by the number of basic units that will fit into the bigger 1metre x 1metre square. In this example, we'd multiply it by 100. The thing that will throw most people is the usage of square meters/centimetres/millimetres etc and meters/centimetres/millimetres squared. But it is important to understand the differences and when and why these terms should be used. Hope that helped.
You really couldn’t wait 15 minutes for homie to finish his lunch before you filmed 😅
😂😂 he don’t seem to give a damn
Bro time never stops, the money always flows and the side gig for that extra bag keeps you afloat. Keep the side hustle goin
He aint fazed either.
It all kinda adds to the friendly and family grassroots business vibe

Good thought my friend that's all that matters.

@@hx7004 He mentioned zeroing your scale, not calibrating it.
@vert740 He called it TAR not TARE. Say you don't know anything about a scale without saying it. 😂

The guy in the background just doesn’t care about you talking nor does he care about the camera he’s just enjoying his food have a good one 😂
My guy you are dope for doing this cause I figured it out after I asked...salute my guy well done
Now that i know the gsm of them, what do i do the holes in all my clothes?!
Right; I'm confused about why I'm cutting holes in clothes to determine the GSM. I'm going tell my manufacturer what GSM I wish to order. Once received if it's not the same product or to my liking; I will return it. I don't know what the purpose of cutting the fabric is. 😭😭😭
5-10% tolerance, 25g fits in there closer to the 5% on a 400Gsm fabric
lmao i just saw your tiktok did not know what gsm is came to youtube and so happened to click on your vid😂
Just discovered your channel, Instant subscription
Starting a business myself and I enjoyed this content, keep up the well informed work

Bro is funny and also gives good information 10/10 video 🔥🔥🙏
GSM is used in paper stock aswell.
how do i explain to a manufacturer about tolerance though?
They the ones have to do the explaining 😂
If you have to explain to a manufacturer about tolerances, it probably isn’t that professional to begin with. Pros know all of this stuff.
@@vicchaos-pz2okYea honestly if you have to explain to a manufacturer what tolerances are, you need to find a new manufacturer asap
Definitely get a new manu😂

Fantastic. Thank you.
Brodie is just mowing down on the chicken sandwich 😂
Great video thanks man
Diamond seed you say?? Can I get those in the plant section?
Someone say that the circles can weight different depending on the part of the hoodie, is it true?
This was very helpful
What factories? Where are these factories you're talking about?
500 GSM set, rate 1-10 on how good the quality/Heaviness should be?
lmao Ive bought many hoodies and till this day the best blank was some dhgate SI rep for like $30, heavy 100%cotton double layered hood and all that
10% is a lot on 420 gsm though right? thats 42gsm lighter would you say thats a noticable difference?
For the higher GSM you take a lower percentage. So for 420 you probably go for 5%
I guess I have to watch this video again to see the lunch that everybody is talking about in the comments
U don’t need the machine, just measure the fabric with ruler, 1 m x 1 m = 1 m square, and weigh it with standar scale
True that but I think this is just an industry standard method with the specific cutter and scales.
Stops any sneaks doing a fabric swap if you take the sample from the final product as well.

Dude eating at the table like dude come on it's lunch time.
I’m no geometrical genius but a square meter is best illustrated as a square. That’s a circle. I don’t think you’d ever get an integer from a circle.
did you forgetting about the pi formula? lol
@@presizz7883please explain.
Damn bro PowerPoint in the middle of dude's lunch? Lmao
feeling like chick fil a for dinner tonight
Talk about counterfeit products
A good suite should be in the range 240 - 270 GSM.
I started cutting holes in my brothers clothes to say i was trsting the gsm 😂😂
I’m confused bc that’s not a square meter
It's 100 sq cm, so you can multiply the weight by 100 (move the decimal place by 2) to see grams per sq m. 😊
I'm not sure what the exact diameter of the cutting circle is but it looks like it could be between 11 and 12 cm. By using the pi x radius squared formula, you can work out the area of the fabric as 100 centimetres squared which equates to a square with the dimensions of 10cm x 10cm or 10 square centimetres (note the difference between "square centimetres" vs "centimetres squared".

What’s the average GSM for a drop shoulder/oversized t-shirt??
230 GSM is pretty standard.
If y’all really that distracted by dude eating lunch then you need to learn how to focus

Me too
I cant focus on GSM with that food im hungry
