Hi there, congrats on finishing while having a full time job! As someone who recently used SurveyMonkey and hated it, I really wanted to like it, but it was bit laggy and the UI was confusing at times. Also allowing only 10 responses in free trial makes it very limiting.

Thank you! I originally had the video in the hero, but few non tech people gave me feedback that it was confusing, so I put list of holders on top. Any thoughts on how I spruce it up?
Hi HN,
Six months ago, I quit my corporate job to work on ToolWall. I was tired of the bureaucracy and frankly, a bit burnt out. I was doing woodworking in my free time, so it was a natural progression to build something related to woodworking and tech.
When I first setup my garage workshop, I spent a lot of time organizing it instead of working on fun projects. The other woodworkers, leatherworkers, mechanics, and makers that I talked to had the same problem. They all want an easy, cheap and sturdy solution for organization. I believe https://toolwallhq.com is that solution.
The biggest advantage that ToolWall has over existing solutions in the market is the online visual artboard where you can organize your tools and their holders before purchasing the latter. It uses Canvas and SVGs to represent the tools. (I eventually want to build a AR app which detects the tools you own from uploaded pictures and auto suggests how to organize them).
Couple days ago, I launched the beta and have been looking to get feedback on the site and the product. I would love to hear what you think.
Thank you for your time.
PS: If you have a CNC and are willing to test out some of my beta designs, I'll send you the Fusion files for free. You can reach me at me@toolwallhq.com.

Interesting project. Couple questions:
1. What separates you from Spree which recently started offering a headless platform as well?
2. Do you support Tax/Shipping calculations?
3. Where can I see a list of all supported integrations?
4. Do you offer deployment options?

I'm currently the Director of Engineering for WCo (subsidiary of P&G); responsible for two DTC websites: getbevel.com and formbeauty.com. Responsibilities include hitting revenues goals for two brands, leading engineering team (of 4), coordinating with other product, finance and marketing teams etc.
Also helped with the acquisition process by P&G. My role is majority management these days than coding. Looking for a similar role in DTC company.
This is similar to what I've been doing on and off for nearly 5 years now: https://gist.github.com/sent-hil/3444793, except on paper.

Anyone near SF want to pair program?
