I thought my boss was nuts for wanting a full 3D model of a simple bracket, but it saved a $15,000 mistake.

How many times has something like that happened? I had a project lead insist on a full stress sim for a plastic clip that looked fine. The model showed it would crack after fifty uses, which was exactly the warranty period. We changed the design for maybe two hundred bucks in engineering time.

But what if the sim had been wrong?
