Plant assistant mockup: operator, management, sales
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 24s
docs/plant-assistant.html (test site /demos/plant-assistant/): the plant assistant on vinyl-ai as three roles see it. Operator at the C1 press kiosk in Thai or English with push to talk (non-fill rejects explained from cycle rows, lot change and press hall humidity, the stamper change procedure quoted from the approved version, a lot on hold, a refused price question, a safety question answered word for word); management at a desk (output and yield per press against the plan basis, steam per record against scale.md, orders at risk, the weekly note, payroll refused); sales on a phone (order status and ship window, repress feasibility from archived mothers and the standby calendar, repress leads, a test pressing status, fans' addresses refused). Each answer carries numbered sources; the side panel shows the tool calls (ERPNext as the asker's role, the PostgreSQL replica, VictoriaMetrics, documents, event log) on premises with the internet not used; action buttons create drafts only. Deep links #role=<role>&q=<id>, light and dark theme. Invented data; names match the factory console demo. plant-assistant.md: mockup link; sales and customer service row in "Who asks what"; sales drafts (quotation, CRM opportunity, message). README, site index and site/build.sh link and publish the page. |

Own catalogue in a second company; models self-hosted on premises
Decisions (Alexander, 26 Oct 2026): a second company, not the plant company, holds the catalogue; it owns and licenses titles; language models are self-hosted on premises. catalogue-intelligence.md reworked: the catalogue company is a customer of the plant at arm's length (orders through intake and portal, the plant's price list, standby pressing offered to every customer, no moved dates, no data either way, metal in the archive on customer terms; Revenue Code section 71 bis, 200M THB disclosure threshold per the OECD profile), its own ERPNext site, the run-size rule on the plant's price instead of its direct cost, its own advisor instance on hardware it controls, phasing, cost borne by it, risks, open decisions (shareholders and Poy Records, working capital, standby terms, where its systems run). Mirrors: README (planning bullet, project status), roadmap item 28, digital-factory (tool rule, language-model row in the open-source table), artist-platform (standby pressing proposal, pre-orders), production-timeline, revenue-model, plant-assistant (self-hosted on premises; catalogue data removed; advisor as a separate instance). |

Plant assistant: one agent management and operators can ask
New docs/plant-assistant.md (decision, Alexander, 26 Oct 2026): an assistant for the whole plant, asked in Thai or English at kiosks, desks and phones, answering from the knowledge base (SOPs as ERPNext Quality Procedures, vendor manuals on the Assets, recipes and limits, this repository, lessons learned) and from ERPNext and the machine-data store, with sources on every answer. Roles and questions, what it does (explain, trace, summarise, alert context, plan vs actual, drafts) and never does (machines, submitting, safety improvisation, seeing more than the asker, rating operators, needing the internet). Built on Typhoon 2.5 (open weights, Apache-2.0, CPU trial first), Typhoon ASR for optional voice, pgvector retrieval, MCP tools in cnx-factory through the one integration layer and the PostgreSQL replica; vinyl-ai GPU server only if needed (~250k to 300k THB, RTX 5090 Thai retail Oct 2026). Test set per role, phasing, cost, risks, open decisions. Mirrors: digital-factory systems and machines tables, rough cost note; catalogue advisor becomes a role of the assistant; worker-safety training; roadmap item 18; README bullet and layout. |

Own catalogue: sales map, demand model and market advisor (plan)
New docs/catalogue-intelligence.md for Alexander's idea of a catalogue the plant presses for itself. Why (idle Classic hours ~60k to 160k records a year at 60 % specials on the doc basis; two-week represses from the metal archive; Thai catalogue sells in Japan, EM Records, ZudRangMa), scope (Poy Records as seed; customers' data and press dates protected), data sources with access terms (Bandcamp ship-to fields, distributor sell-through clauses, opt-in record passport registrations, Spotify for Artists, Discogs CC0 dumps; Discogs API marketplace and want data restricted), ERPNext touchpoints (Licence, Channel Sales Report, Catalogue Recommendation, geocoded addresses, CRM), PDPA rules for the map, dashboard views on an open-source map stack, a staged demand model with a stocking rule for run size, a propose-only advisor on an open-weights model, phasing, cost estimates, risks and open decisions. Backlinks: README (planning documents, layout), roadmap item 28, digital-factory tool rule, artist-platform repress pre-orders, production-timeline repress, revenue-model ResurRec Japan. |

ResurRec Japan: demand in Japan and whether it serves all of Asia
Revenue model, ResurRec Japan section: RIAJ 2025 vinyl production (3.38M records, 8.4bn yen, fifth year of growth), short domestic supply (6 to 12 month lead times at Toyo Kasei and Sony per P-Vine, orders placed abroad via brokers), the photographed presses at about a fifth of Japan's volume on one shift. No published Asia-wide intent; the rest of Asia has local plants, so Japan-from-Japan and SEA-from-Bangkok is our reading. Consequence for CNX's ~0.74M regional demand (roadmap item 1). |

ResurRec Japan: press capacity of the three AD12s in the photo
Revenue model, ResurRec Japan section: ~2,000 to 2,500 records a day, ~0.6 to 0.76M a year on one shift, ~1.2 to 1.5M on two (Pheenix 24 to 26 s cycle, the table's 60 to 70 % effectiveness, 300 days), about CNX's launch plant at 60 % specials. Black and solid colours only; splatter runs semi-automatic on the AD12 with no published cycle time. |

ResurRec Japan: photos of the new plant, presses read as new Pheenix AD12s
Four photos of ResurRec's new Japan plant (October 2026) filed in docs/finance/resurrec-japan/. Revenue model gets a "ResurRec Japan" section: what the photos show (visitor window, automatic presses in aluminium cabinets that Alexander identifies as a new red AD12 generation, ceiling services, air-conditioned room, no plating in view), what it changes (scaling abroad, Japan export wedge narrows, Classic vs AD12 evidence, collaboration depends on their metal path) and open questions. Also notes a directory listing naming an M-Tech Allegro II in Bangkok against the tour's Newbilt Classic. Mirrors: Pheenix sections in vendor-landscape, exhibitor questions and supplier map; pressing-line AD12 paragraph; roadmap item 5; visitor corridor in crane-workshop-tours; README status and layout. |

All-equity funding: shareholders fund the whole plant
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 1m0s
User, 20 Oct 2026: the plan is that the shareholders fund the whole
plant and get shares for that (no bank loan).
- total-investment.md "Two plans": Funding paragraph: Plan B's ~217M
THB paid in as share capital; the lead investor's 60 % at least ~130M,
the 40 % at most ~87M (~121M / ~81M before the reserve; Plan A ~109M /
~73M); capital registered in full and called in instalments against
the tranches; BOI's 3:1 met with no debt; nothing pledged.
- boi.md, README Project Status and the share-price bullet follow.
- Business plan A and B: the ask, the decisions, section 12.2 (funding
bullet replaces the 3:1 equity floor), section 14 and the BOI
requirements paragraph; "not in this plan" now names bank debt; both
rebuilt (63 pages, checked).
- share-price.md re-based: 2,170,000 shares of 100 THB, the 40 % ~86.8M
THB; illustrative calls 25/40/20/15 % against the tranches; premium
rows on 217M; value per share once running with no debt (adverse 11 to
42 THB, central 80 to 314, favourable 176 to 688 per 100 THB paid);
VC method and CAPM recomputed; the calculator's ~22 % IRR is now the
shareholders' pre-tax return (~18 % after tax, rough); missed-call
rules (CCC 1120 to 1125); the levered case kept as "if a loan were
added later".
- Deck: slide 12 (all equity, 60/40 bar ~130M / ~87M, none pledged,
share capital called in instalments), slide 13 (re-based table, chart,
premium cards, VC line), slide 17 (co-investor card, calls) and notes
("lenders" -> "investors"); both PDFs rebuilt; deck verify clean.

User, 20 Oct 2026: add a page about possible share prices, do some calculation on normal market data. - docs/finance/share-price.md (new): market data with sources and dates (Damodaran January 2026 EV/EBITDA, P/E and betas for emerging markets and global; Thailand ERP 6.18 % (July 2026); ThaiBMA 10-year 2.30 % (19 Oct 2026); illiquidity discount 20 to 35 %; venture target returns by stage; SET peers SCGP, TPAC, SITHAI, GRAMMY; Thai Civil and Commercial Code on par value and premiums). - Results, all estimates: A founding round at par, pari passu: 542,500 shares of 100 THB at Plan B's 54.25M equity floor, the 40 % ~21.7M THB; B a premium only for documented pre-round costs (102 to 137 THB); C value per share once running at ~163M THB debt: adverse ~0, central 126 to 1,016 THB, favourable 508 to 2,512 THB; D a financial investor today 18 to 236 THB (central); E calculator cross-check. Recommendation: par for the founding round; pre-emption and information rights for the 40 %. - Deck: new slide 13 "Share price: what the 40 % could cost" in both themes, with notes; the ask slide points to it; 17 slides, both PDFs rebuilt; site slide notes trimmed. - README bullet, layout line and Project Status link; total-investment shareholding paragraph links the page. |

Payap still an option: rezoning route; order example opaque
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 2m40s
User, 20 Oct 2026: Payap University claims they can rezone the land; update the deck to show it is still an option. And: do not use a transparent vinyl as the example in the order tool screenshot. - land-listings/payap/rezoning-2026-10-20.md (new): what a rezoning is under the Town Planning Act B.E. 2562 (section 35 amendment started by DPT or the local official, Town Planning Commission, 30-day posting with objections, Ministry of Interior notification via Cabinet and the Royal Gazette; a landowner can ask, not rezone), the DPT's own work plan (~70 weeks without objections, ~82 with: ~16 to 19 months), the schedule effect (roughly a year on first production unless the request starts now; estimate) and what to ask Payap. DPT procedure PDF filed. - site-candidates.md: Payap "still an option" in the table, rezoning paragraph with an Open action, check 1 and the re-siting rule; zoning record, payap-partnership.md and README point to it. - Business plan 6.1, risk table and critical path: Payap's rezoning claim and its ~16 to 19 months; A and B rebuilt (63 pages, checked). - Deck: site slide names Payap as an option once rezoned, notes and source line; risk row updated. - order.html: the "Splatter 12"" preset now has a white base instead of clear; deck platform screenshots re-shot in both themes (numbers unchanged: 100 fans, break-even 46, ~480 THB kept). Order checks 96/96, fan parity 206/206; deck verify clean in both themes, PDFs rebuilt. |

Order tool: fan funding; deck: light and dark, 60/40 shareholding
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 1m2s
User, 20 Oct 2026: can the deck also be made in a light and dark mode; the new order tool should also offer fan funding, so the platform screenshots match and use the same calculator; the main investor holds at least 60 %, so 40 % is for sale. Order tool (docs/order.html, /demos/order/): - New step 15 "How to pay": pay the plant directly (deposit) or let fans fund it; step 16 becomes "Review & launch" with the campaign simulation and its three outcomes. - Campaign maths ported from make-a-record (fan price, length, cap, own copies, VAT; fans needed = max(100, break-even); keep at the goal and with more fans; price hint); R gains fee (3.5 %), VAT and campaign length with sources; no price changed. - Quote card shows fan price, fans needed and the artist's keep on the fan route; route and campaign in the #q= hash; deep links #s=<step>&p=<preset>&route=fans. - Parity with make-a-record: 206/206 checks over 40 configurations; default quotes unchanged (37,836 / 217 / 102,936 THB; partner mastering 43,676). Investor deck (docs/pitch/): - Light and dark theme like the other site pages (cnx-theme, T key and button), presenter and overview follow; charts from CSS variables; text pairs at WCAG AA in both themes; tool screenshots in both themes. - Two PDFs: dark and light (print-friendly), each ~1.5 MB. - Platform slide: both pictures from the order tool (Splatter 12" order step and its fan-funding view: 100 fans at 1,200 THB, break-even 46, ~480 THB a copy kept). - BOI and financing slide: shareholding bar, lead investor at least 60 %, at most 40 % for co-investors (~32M / ~22M THB at the ~54M equity floor, arithmetic only); the ask offers up to 40 %.

Shareholding: main investor holds at least 60 %, 40 % for sale
User, 20 Oct 2026: the main investor W wants to hold at least 60 % of the company (the BOI-promoted company), so only 40 % is for sale. - total-investment.md "Two plans": the 60/40 rule; Ploy Printing's stake, founders' shares and any further co-investor come out of the 40 %; at Plan B's ~54M THB equity floor (3:1) and one share price that is at least ~32M / at most ~22M THB (arithmetic only; share price, valuation and in-kind shares not agreed). - README Project Status and boi.md (foreign-ownership privilege) point to it. - Business plan: section 12.2 states the split (A: ~28M / ~18M, B: ~32M / ~22M at the equity floor, arithmetic), the co-investment bullet and the decisions list name the 40 %; A and B rebuilt (63 pages each, TOC and em-dash check clean). |

Optical QC: plate every 5 records, how plates avoid scratching
User, 19 Oct 2026: one plate every 5 records; how do we make sure the plates don't scratch the records. - Plate every 5 (10 per 50-record stack, ~15 kg a stack). - Scratch rules: groove-guard profile keeps grooves off the plate (QRP); plate flat, larger than the record (306 to 310 mm), deburred; clear anodised (cost estimate, CNY 16 to 28/m2 China reference); vertical handling only; no grit (trimmer extraction, ionised blow-off and wipe on return, covered carts and racks); numbered plates, monthly check; station compares scratches on plate faces vs record faces. - About 700 plates for a 24 h queue (25 sheets, THB 245k to 315k cut, + 35k to 105k anodising, estimates); 200 to 260 for 8 h. - Plate trial adds bare vs anodised and the scratch comparison. |

Optical QC: STO servo version looked at, stay with 100 W
User, 18 Oct 2026, asked about the A6-EC400H2B1-M17-STO (400 W, STO, brake, USD 157.91). STO comes only from 400 W; its manual gives no SIL or PL and no certificate, so it cannot replace the contactor; the brake holds nothing on a horizontal axis. Recommendation recorded: keep the 100 W kit; if a rated STO is confirmed in writing, take the brake-less A6-EC400H2A1-M17-STO (USD 129.60) on both axes, 1:2 to 1:3 belt, no contactor. |

User, 18 Oct 2026: use an EtherCAT based system. - Spindle and conveyor on the StepperOnline A6-EC100L2A1-M17 kit (100 W, A6-200EC drive, USD 123.29), spindle through a 1:6 belt in cyclic synchronous position, conveyor in cyclic synchronous velocity. - The A6-EC drive has no divided encoder output, so an RS-422 incremental encoder on the spindle shaft clocks both line-scans; its index goes to the drive touch probe for one angle reference. - Station controller: fanless N100 mini PC with 2x Intel i226, NixOS PREEMPT_RT, EtherCAT master EtherCrab (Rust, MIT/Apache) first, IgH (nixpkgs, igc native driver on 6.12 LTS) as fallback; no PLC. - EtherCAT I/O: EK1100, EL1809, EL2809, EL3102 (warp lasers sampled with the spindle position, ~1,000 points a turn at 1 ms). - Safety stays hardwired (safety relay, contactor; no STO at 100 W). - Edge PC with the GPU stays off the real-time loop. - BOM: drives, encoder, controller and I/O lines with sources; total USD 16,112 to 32,938 (THB 0.53M to 1.09M). Next step: EtherCAT bench. - Investor render: cabinet and outfeed labels. |

Optical QC: spindle servo, 100 W StepperOnline A6-RS kit
User, 18 Oct 2026, asked about the StepperOnline A6-EC100L2A1-M17 (100 W EtherCAT kit). - The motor fits: torque about 0.02 N m needed at the motor through a 1:6 belt (0.32 rated); the belt brings the load inertia (about 25 to 35 kg cm2, estimate; record 20.5) to about 28x the 0.03 kg cm2 rotor. - Take the pulse/RS-485 twin A6-RS100L2A1-M17 (USD 108.78): its drive outputs the encoder as divided A/B/Z pulses for the line-scans and takes pulse/direction from the planned PLC. The EtherCAT drive has no divided output (A6-EC manual, CN1: 5 DI, 3 DO) and needs an EtherCAT master. - inline-optical-qc.md: spindle servo paragraph, sensor table, BOM group; BOM line 109 to 250 (was 300 to 700). Total USD 16,073 to 32,734, THB 0.53M to 1.08M. |

Optical QC: one station for both presses, after the cooling racks
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 55s
User, 18 Oct 2026: for now one QC station for both machines; let the records cool in a queue before testing them. - inline-optical-qc.md "Where it sits": launch setup. Spindle stacks from the Duplex system and the Classic, labelled at the press (press, stamper set, first and last cycle), cool in FIFO racks (24 h accepted practice, 8 h at the shortest, Stamper Discs; about one day of output, 2,800 to 3,100 records); the finishing operator feeds the station from the cooled stacks. Gains: warp and centring measured on settled records (the release value), one station instead of two, no Classic unloader change, no warm-record sag or thermal camera. Cost: defects found hours later, covered by the Duplex operator, per-cycle telemetry and an early lane for the first records of each run and after stamper changes. Record key from the stack label and stack position, checked against the run-out stamper number. Capacity 10 to 12 a minute against 5 to 6: one station to about two Duplex systems and two Classics. A station at each press stays the later option. Cost table, open points, infeed row, thermal camera note and the Newbilt question follow. - Fleet calculator: the per-press stations and the release station are gone; the finishing block shows the cooling racks with record stacks and the one optical station by the corridor glass; tooltips, corridor and conveyor texts; machine park back to its legend, finishing box "cooling, QC, packing". - quality-automation.md layer 1, digital-factory.md QC row, process-flow.md stage 6, site-candidates.md block ground floor, crane-workshop-tours.md tour stop 6. - Investor render: infeed label "the operator sets each cooled record down". Checks: node --check; pw_bp_calc.py 0 fails; pw_iso_view_check.py OK; info for every data-id at all presets, levels and rotations; GF nodes 2,414 at the full preset; zoomed shots in two rotations. |

Plant view: inline optical QC station at every press
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 58s
User, 18 Oct 2026: add the new inline inspection machine to the factory. - Fleet calculator, isometric plant view: qcStation() draws the concept station (1.9 x 0.65 x 1.5 m: aluminium conveyor table with the two rim belts, light-tight tunnel, stack light, record on the infeed, reject bin) in front of the operator in every Duplex cell (after the trimmer) and at the unload side of every Classic, in the hall and in phase 2; own ids qc-duplex-n / qc-classic-n with tooltips from inline-optical-qc.md (Classic hand-off open with Newbilt). Cell floor extended to take the bin. - The finishing block's end-of-line optical station becomes the release inspection: the same station measuring cooled samples (records settle ~24 h); corridor, block and conveyor tooltips reworded. - Machine park schematic: a QC bar in every Duplex cell and Classic, an "inline QC" legend entry; the legend moved to the bottom of the hall box (it collided with the hall heading). - Docs: inline-optical-qc.md (release station location, plant view), site-candidates.md block ground floor, crane-workshop-tours.md tour stop 6. Checks: node --check on all scripts; pw_bp_calc.py 0 fails; pw_iso_view_check.py OK; every data-id has info at all presets, levels and rotations; legend clear of cells and heading up to 30M records; zoomed shots in both themes and two rotations. GF node count at the full preset 2,523 (was 2,388), 8M records ~2,980; rebuild under 60 ms. |

Fleet calculator: plant view starts from the front, drag pans at any zoom
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 55s
User, 18 Oct 2026: show the factory from the front at start, and make the view movable always, not only after the first zoom. - CNXIso default rotation 1 (from the south-west: office, car park and gate face the viewer) instead of 3; documented setRotation in the header. The business plan renders pin setRotation(1) already. - Drag pans at fit as well (was only when zoomed in); grab cursor at every zoom, grabbing while dragging. On touch screens the fitted view keeps vertical swipes for page scrolling (touch-action pan-y), so a horizontal drag pans; once zoomed in every direction pans, as before. |

Inline QC station: real 40x40 profiles, labelled investor render
User, 18 Oct 2026: use real 40x40 profiles, make a render with text pointing out the parts to show the investor; the ring lights looked like they were floating. - build_station.py: frame drawn from the real 8-slot 40 series section (profile_shape: slots, centre bore, corner cavities; 40x80 with centre cavity) and 24 cast angle brackets; top beams now butt between the uprights; label-camera posts moved beside the cameras so both ring lights clamp straight to them; top line-scan on a side post with visible camera plate and light hangers; slide strips on carrier angles, pulley axles, end-stop posts, presence-sensor brackets, backlight post, cabinet on base crosses, chute on two supports and clear of the rail, pneumatics rail, stack light on the back upright, touch screen on the front end upright. A connectivity check at the end lists any part that does not reach the floor through touching parts: none. - render_annotated.py (FreeCAD): front three-quarter view, camera backed off so nothing is clipped, no navigation cube or preselection, label positions projected from the camera and checked with marker renders. - annotate_render.py (Pillow): title, 16 labels in two columns, leaders assigned so none cross -> inline-qc-station-annotated.png. - render_station.py: same camera and preselection fixes; all six views re-rendered. - BOM: 32 m of 40x40 in 45 pieces; total still USD 16k to 33k. - inline-optical-qc.md and README updated; .gitignore for the render intermediates. |

Biomass steam in both plans, PV on the factory roof only
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 49s
User, 17 Oct 2026: "only put solar on the factory, prepare the other buildings for solar, option a and b should operate on biomass". - Steam: two 500 kg/h biomass modules (Getabec class, 6M to 10M THB) plus a fuel store and handling block (1M to 2M, estimate) in both plans; the electric bank becomes the alternative. ~0.67M THB of fuel a year against ~4.9M for electric steam; grid demand ~264 kW instead of ~980 kW. - Solar: ~520 kWp on the factory roof (the biomass-case optimum is ~500 to 550 kWp, hourly sketch in sustainability.md "PV size with biomass steam"); office roof and parking canopies built PV-ready (~120 kWp later). ~87 % used on site, ~61 % of the plant's electricity. - Calculator: biomass default, bFuel row, pvKWp 520, pvSelf 87, iso fills the factory roof first and shows the other roofs as PV-ready. - Numbers: launch plant ~168M / 232M / 296M with contingency; Plan A ~182M (~2M above 180M: the Chinese-route lever priced only electric boilers; a Chinese biomass quote is the way back), Plan B ~217M (label ~215M), ~35M more. Calculator EBITDA A 2.17M, B 2.23M USD. - CSV, total-investment, revenue-model, sustainability, scale, biomass, site-candidates, boi, steam-cooling, construction RFQ (canopies PV-ready), README, roadmap; business plan draft 0.3 rebuilt (A and B 63 pages) with new renders. |

Solar on every roof, BOI solar correction, open source section
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 54s
Solar (user, 17 Oct 2026: "use as much roof space as possible") - PV on every roof and canopy: ~640 kWp on the Payap scenario plot (factory roof ~523, canopies ~54, flat office roof ~65 kWp around the AC units); ~300 kWp on the Mueang Chi hall. Calculator: pvKWp 640, new pvSelf 85 % (zero export, hourly sketch), PV cost per kWp times the array, office-roof PV in the iso view, roofs drawn full. - 12.8M to 16.6M THB at 20 to 26 THB/W; CSV baseline 34.37M to 56.34M; launch plant ~168M / 231M / 294M THB with contingency; Plan B ~216M (label ~215M), ~39M above Plan A; Plan A unchanged (it leases the array), its solar lever ~17.5M. PV payback ~4.2 to 5.9 years. - Permits (rooftop solar no factory licence since 28 Dec 2024, ERC exemption under 1,000 kVA, PEA zero export) and PPA discounts sourced in sustainability.md. BOI correction - Announcement 3/2568 (in force 1 July 2025) ended BOI promotion for solar installations; only the battery may qualify (12M THB per MW cap). Removed the "BOI solar measure" from boi.md, total-investment, revenue-model, sustainability, site-candidates and both plan versions; Plan B's case for owning the array is the PPA bill it avoids (~0.07M USD a year). Open source (user, 17 Oct 2026) - digital-factory.md "Open source throughout, and working with other plants": everything we run and build is open source on NixOS, our code published (licence to decide), vendor firmware the stated exception; later the stack and factory-automation services for other pressing plants, not in the revenue. - Business plan section 5.6 plus an executive-summary bullet, reading guide and not-modelled mentions; draft 0.3 rebuilt (A 60, B 61 pages), renders re-made with the roofs full. |

Sources in the utilities CSV: DEDE Thailand PV Status report (Mahidol survey: 22 to 25 THB/W for factory systems of 10 kW to 1 MW, 2023), CapSolar 2026 (20 to 25 under 1 MWp), Saimai Solar's list (300 kW for 5.4M THB), Deye hybrid inverter retail (160,500 THB per 50 kW). - Battery 271 kWh, now installed: 2.0M to 3.5M THB (was the bare Gobel list price, 1.4M to 2.0M, which matches DEDE's 5,000 to 7,000 THB/kWh for LiFePO4); adds enclosure, fire protection, controls and installation, below CapSolar's 12,000 to 15,000 THB/kWh for a fully installed factory BESS because the hybrid inverters do the conversion (estimate). - Utilities baseline 27.57M to 47.50M THB; launch plant ~160M / 222M / 283M THB with contingency; Plan B ~208M (~149M to 266M), ~31M more than Plan A; Plan A's total unchanged, its solar lever ~9.7M. PV payback ~3.8 to 5.4 years (sustainability.md). Calculator, README, roadmap, revenue model and both business plan versions (renders included) updated. |

The FreeCAD aerial render, the Mueang Chi site plan and the hall layout sketch are no longer in the plan; the captions say the calculator draws the Payap scenario model while the 6.2 text and zone table are the Mueang Chi hall. - New section 5.5 "The software: plant overview, factory console and artist platform" with six screenshots of the demos: the plant overview (simulated SCADA), the factory console press floor and its ERPNext link, the artist ordering offer, fan funding and the record passport. Simulated data is marked as such; the platform name stays undecided. - Figures renumbered (budget card 11, cash 12) and named in the section 15 source table.

- One build makes both documents: plan_variant.py switches the plan-specific text (pick / is_a / label); build_plan.py writes CNX-Vinyl-Business-Plan-A and -B (docx), export_pdf.py exports both PDFs with the table of contents filled in. Draft 0.2 (single launch-plant plan with contingency) is removed; it stays in the history. - Plan A: the launch plant with every machine and six cost levers, ~177M THB with the ramp-up reserve, no contingency. Plan B: the second Duplex at launch, five presses, ~224M THB on the same basis. Each version reads as a complete plan with one table comparing it with the other; the 216M investor-question text is gone, Pheenix is priced at OMS's reference plus 20 %. - Calculator renders in both documents, each from its own preset: the plant at a glance (Figure 4), the budget check (Figure 5) and ten years of cash (Figure 6), in docs/renders/calculator/. - Calculator budget card: the verdict and third KPI now name the tightest budget the midpoint fits (Plan A: 3.3M to spare under 180M; Plan B: 0.8M under 225M) instead of always 225M. - Fixes: CD replication cross-references point to section 4.10; the blended price in section 3.3 and roadmap item 1 is 3.76 to 5.27 USD at 60 % specials (3.50 to 4.60 at a standard-heavy mix). |

User (October 2026): price the Pheenix galvanics line at OMS's reference plus 20 %, and work on a new business plan in two versions, one at roughly 180M THB and one at +25 %; the plans do not include contingency; Plan A keeps every machine and uses cost levers only. - total-investment.md: Pheenix block 324k to 445k USD (OMS 4-cell wet room with know-how transfer, EUR 234k to 321k, plus 20 %; was 320k to 650k estimate); launch plant now ~161M to 285M THB with contingency, midpoint ~223M. New section "Two plans": Plan A = launch plant with solar PPA, metrology launch tier, corridor later, cassette and CD-R later, rented crane, Chinese boilers and compressor: subtotal ~161.7M + ramp-up reserve 10 to 20M = ~177M THB (127M to 226M). Plan B = second Duplex at launch (five presses), everything in: subtotal ~209.2M + reserve = ~224M THB (162M to 286M). Contingency listed as not in either price (~24M / ~31M at 15 %). The 180M / 216M answer marked superseded. - revenue-model.md: operating pictures of both plans at 60 % specials. Plan A central EBITDA 1.73M USD, operating profit 1.34M, payback ~3.1 yr on the plan price; adverse loses money. Plan B (1.0 / 1.25 / 1.5M records) central EBITDA 3.14M, operating profit 2.63M, payback ~2.2 yr; adverse just covers depreciation; needs ~1.25M records sold. - Calculator: Pheenix price basis "OMS +20 %" and "OMS directly"; new contingency switch (in the total / shown separately); presets Plan A and Plan B (replace "investor levers" and "five-press"); budget card against 180M and 225M. - galvanics.md price note, README, roadmap.

User (October 2026): "lets say 60+% special prints" (the plant focuses on special prints, not mono colours). - Specials (splatter, marble, colour effects) run only on the Duplex systems, so at 60 % the Duplex sets the launch plant's output: ~0.58 / 0.74 / 0.90M records a year (was 0.71 / 0.84 / 0.97 at ~20 %), the Classic at about two thirds load. Full 60/40 hall: ~2.3 to 3.6M (Duplex -limited, Classics about half loaded); five-press fleet unchanged. A hall balanced by output at 60 % would give Duplex ~70 to 75 % of the floor (estimate; noted, not applied). - Blended price 3.76 / 4.49 / 5.27 USD (standard 3.40 / 3.80 / 4.25 plus the 0.60 / 1.15 / 1.70 specials premium on 60 %).

Press hall laid out 60/40 for Duplex systems (special pressings first)
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 46s
User (October 2026): "the factory should have more space for duplex setups than classic, we will mainly focus on special prints and not mono colours plan it to be 60/40 duplex classic". - Press hall (~870 m2) planned 60/40 by floor: four Duplex bays along the visitor corridor and six Classic positions in the second row (440 + 300 = ~740 m2 at 110 / 50 m2), the rest open for mould carts and staging; the launch plant fills one of each, growth adds Duplex systems first. Replaces "room for ten more Classics". - Full hall: 8 semi-automatic presses + 6 Classics, 57/43 by press count, ~1,250 to 1,410 records/h gross, ~3.6 to 4.7M a year on the scale.md basis (was 4.7 to 5.8M for 2 Duplex + 11 Classics); ~2.1 to 2.5 t/h steam and up to ~1.8 MW cooling, still a utility phase of its own. By hourly output the six automatic Classics still press more than the eight semi-automatic presses (estimate). - pressing-line.md, scale.md (capacity table, utilities), site-candidates .md, crane-workshop-tours.md, roadmap.md, README (the FreeCAD Payap model still draws the earlier layout; noted, not redrawn). - Calculator: preset "Full hall 60/40 (4 D + 6 C)", fleet ladder Duplex first (1+1, 2+1, 3+2, 4+3, 4+6) plus the same floor Classic-led (2+11) and Duplex-only (7+0) for comparison; plant view reserves 4 Duplex bays and 6 Classic positions. - Business plan draft 0.2 rebuilt (capacity table row, plot fit, layout). Checks: renderer 720 checks pass (node budget 2,700 for the Duplex-heavy stress preset, 60 fps), calculator regression 0 fails, level selector and page checks clean at 390 / 1024 / 1440 px dark and light; PDF 47 pages with a filled table of contents. |

Plant view: toilets in the factory, link lands on doors, no separate trimmer
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 45s
User feedback on the isometric view (October 2026): - "the production hall is missing toilets": two sets. At the staff entry: women 2 WC, men 1 WC and 1 urinal, an accessible WC, basins. At the east end of the back aisle in the finishing block: women 2 WC, men 1 WC and 1 urinal, basins (proposed, not yet in the parametric plans). site-candidates.md gets a Toilets bullet with the Thai minimum (Ministerial Regulation No. 39 B.E. 2537, table 2; separate toilets for men, women and disabled staff under the welfare regulation B.E. 2548). - "the door and the corridor is not aligned": the covered link now lands on doors at both ends, centred on it (factory entrance at the start of the visitor corridor, office lobby door on the north face, windows cleared); the corridor glass starts after the door; the stray staff door with no path is gone; the link deck ramps up to the factory floor. - "we also dont need a extra trimmer with the optical, this is included in the duplex and the classics": the finishing block keeps only the optical inspection station; site-candidates.md, the tour route and the process flow say the presses trim inline. Checks: renderer 720 checks and functional checks pass (max 2,485 SVG nodes); calculator regression 0 fails; level selector works in the page; no page errors or overflow at 390 / 1024 / 1440 px, dark and light. |

Plant view: GF / 1F / Roof levels, lamps off the drive areas, pipe bridges land on walls
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 48s
User feedback on the isometric view (October 2026):
- "a light pole in the middle of the truck apron": a PAVED list of the
drive areas (gate road, aprons, east road, lane, access road, car
park, yard); every lamp now stands on a kerb or verge (the apron lamp
to the south kerb, three more moved off drive areas, one added on the
east road); one LAMPS list feeds poles and light pools.
- "the office building also has 2 levels, can we make a selector for GF
1 2": the Roof / Inside toggle becomes GF | 1F | Roof. 1F shows the
office first floor (+4.0 m: offices, meeting and training, meeting
room, IT and server, toilets, pantry, flexible room, stair and lift)
and the finishing and print block's upper floor (+3.8 m: print room in
reserve, print stock, packaging materials, stair and goods lift), the
rest ghosted. Office ground floor re-split after the floor plans
(site-candidates.md). setMode('inside'/'roof') still works; new
setLevel / getLevel / onLevel; the level survives calculator updates.
- "the pipe bridge to the pump and HX room also stops mid air": both
pipe bridges now drop down the wall faces at the factory and at the
yard building to low-level wall sleeves, with a second support post.
Checks: renderer 720 checks (presets x GF/1F/Roof x 390/1024/1440 x
dark/light) and functional checks pass; calculator regression 0 fails;
level selector works in the page; screenshots reviewed in all rotations.

User feedback on the isometric view (October 2026): - "the cars are above the car park roof": cars and scooters were their own sprites and the depth sort put some above the canopy; they are now drawn inside the canopy sprite before the posts and the roof, so the roof always covers them in every rotation. - "a light pole in the middle of the yard": the two yard lamps at the service-lane edge (one in front of the boiler hall) move to the yard's back fence; one LAMPS list feeds both the poles and the light pools. - "add solar panels to the car park": the car and scooter canopies now take PV first (107 modules, ~48 kWp; construction RFQ has canopy PV), the factory roof the rest (560 of 667 modules at 300 kWp); canopy tooltips give their kWp. - "arrange the pvc storage outside to be black, red, yellow": the silos read black, black, red, yellow from the default north-east view. Renderer checks rerun (288 + functional, no failures); calculator regression 62 checks pass; 390 / 1024 / 1440 px, dark and light, no page errors or overflow. |

New card "The plant at a glance" at the top of the plant and business plan calculator: an isometric SVG scene (CNXIso, inlined with its iso- prefixed CSS) of the Payap-scenario site driven by the calculator state: Duplex systems and Classics (r.D, r.C; overflow into the phase 2 building), galvanics in-house or "stampers bought in", cutting in-house or "cut abroad", metrology tier, cassette and CD-R benches, solar buy / PPA / none (300 kWp, 271 kWh battery), electric or biomass steam (fuel store, chip pile, smoking stack), boiler and chiller modules out of the four positions each (r.nb, r.nc), crane, visitor corridor. Roof / Inside cutaway, four rotations with a north arrow, zoom, pan, pinch, tap for figures from the docs; dusk in the dark theme, day in the light theme; CSS-only animation that pauses off-screen and respects reduced motion. The scene only rebuilds when its config changes. Verified headless on Edge: 390 / 1024 / 1440 px, dark and light, no page errors, no overflow, presets map to the scene (lean, five-press, full hall); the calculator's 62-check regression still passes; node --check on all scripts.

Chinese suppliers for boilers, compressed air and hydraulics
Checked October 2026 on the investor's budget question. New docs/suppliers/china-utilities.md: boiler makers (ZOZEN, Sitong, Fangkuai, Taiguo, Yuanda, Yongxing, Taishan, Nobeth) with fit for 500 kg/h at 1.25 MPa, claimed certificates, Thai references and listing prices; the Thai rules for an imported boiler (MR and MOI notification B.E. 2549: ASME/JIS/EN or equivalent, certification-body verification, once-through relief does not reach 10.5 bar, licensed controller, annual inspection); compressor makers with Thai offices (Kaishan, Denair) and sizing; hydraulic pump sets and accumulators (Huade, Yuci, Hengli, WMD, Renowell, Inovance, NXQ makers), the shared-ring-main risks and Thai HPU builders; duty and freight; open RFQs. Result: about 2M THB at the midpoint (~2.5M with contingency), ~1 % of the 216M target, mostly the boilers; Newbilt aggregates stay Newbilt's. total-investment notes it and lists the uncosted central hydraulic plant; utilities CSV gets the Chinese candidates and route estimates; backlinks from equipment-suppliers, pressing-line, README. |

Launch plant roll-up and the investor's 180M THB question
Decided (user, October 2026): the plant launches with everything in one capital round, commissioned in sequence: one Newbilt Duplex system, one Classic, a Pheenix galvanics line with ZLD water, the Sibert line, a Sillitoe cutting room, and the modular steam and cooling plant (2 x 500 kg/h boilers, 2 x 250 kW chillers, rooms for four each). No bridge stampers, no outsourced cutting; cassette and CD-R stay; the second Duplex and further Classics are growth options, not in the investment. total-investment.md: new 'Launch plant' roll-up, 4.9M to 8.9M USD, 161M to 292M THB incl. 15 % contingency (midpoint ~227M), with what is left out (ramp-up reserve ~10-20M THB, CD replication, financing, FX, archive shelving) and the BOI assumption. The investor's question (180M THB, maybe +20 % = 216M): fits at the low end only; at the midpoint four levers that keep every machine (solar via PPA, metrology launch tier, galvanics near OMS's reference, visitor corridor later) give ~193M, plus reserve ~203-213M, inside 216M; 180M needs low quotes. The quotes that decide it: Newbilt (Duplex, Classic), Pheenix galvanics, building with soil test, metrology. Old full vision and phased entry marked superseded until the mirrors are re-based. Utilities CSV: chiller bank two modules (4.9-7.9M THB), boiler note for B-1 and B-2 at launch, ZLD and DI rows now launch scope (carried with galvanics); baseline 28.47M-48.73M THB. README project status. |

Order demos: spine choice, artwork templates, PDF and AI uploads
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 50s
User request (October 2026): the order tool needs a thin / thick spine selection, templates for the jacket and label upload, and must accept AI and PDF files. Both artist demos (artist-order, make-a-record): - Spine: thin 3 mm (one record) or thick 5 mm (two records, or a thick insert); a double album in a single jacket takes 5 mm, thin is then disabled; 7", gatefold (7 or 9 mm) and own jacket disable the row with the reason. Quote line 'Thick 5 mm spine' (R.spine 12 / 10 THB per copy, estimate from QRP 0.90 vs 0.55 USD and Kudos 137.50 GBP/order). Mock-up draws the spine edge to scale; caption names it. - Templates: vector PDFs written in the browser for the current choice: jacket spread (back, spine, front; 633/635 x 315 mm for 12" from Mighty Media Discs), gatefold with an inside page, labels with a page per side and the dinked hole; trim and bleed boxes set, 3 mm bleed, 5 mm safe area, folds, crop marks, guidance notes. - Uploads accept PDF, AI (PDF-compatible) and images. PDFs are read in the browser (object streams inflated with DecompressionStream): page boxes, pages, PDF/X, creator, colour spaces, font embedding; checks against the chosen spine (a 5 mm spread on a 3 mm order is flagged), bleed, CMYK, fonts; old PostScript-only AI files are refused with the fix. Image spreads are measured the same way. Preview via pdf.js (jsDelivr, loaded only when a PDF arrives); the front panel goes into the mock-up. artist-platform.md: new section 'Artwork templates and files' with the sources; preflight step links it; RI 'left out' list updated. README demo bullet. Checked headless on Edge: fixtures (3/5 mm spreads, no bleed, AI, legacy AI, front only, labels, 150 dpi PNG), downloaded templates parsed with PyMuPDF, 390/1024/1280 px no overflow, dark and light, no page errors; pw_mr_check --tour and pw_ri unchanged (37,836 / 232). |

Systems table, architecture labels, factory application section (modules as a table: records in ERPNext, what we build, machine data outside; our only tables are the machine-data ones), ownership table, integration rules 4 and 8, phasing and estimates (cnx_erp app 2 to 3 person-months; total 3.5 to 6). artist-platform.md: campaigns are an ERPNext document from launch, pledges post as advance payment entries; traceability, README, facility security (archive location on the serial number), production timeline (sets per mother on the mother's serial number), crane-workshop spares store, total-investment. Factory console: KPI row no longer touches the postings card (user screenshot); ERPNext page, order card, sidenote and ledger say every record lives in ERPNext and only machine data stays outside; new postings for artist gates, stamper metrology inspections, stamper set serial numbers (grown, retired with play count).

Archive the father as well as the mother; how many represses a mother carries
Decided (October 2026): the plant keeps the father and the mother of every side. production-timeline.md (repress section) records the decision and the rule of thumb with sources: about 10 stamper sets per mother before it degrades (Third Man Pressing FAQ, a Nashville plater via WPLN), fewer in quality-minded sources (5 VinyLab, 6 to 8 Stereo Review 1962); a father grows about 5 to 10 mothers. So a mother covers roughly ten represses (10,000 to 20,000 records a side) and a worn one is replaced from the archived father without a new cut. galvanics.md: 4 archived parts per title, ~1,200 to 2,400 a year; new open question to all galvanics candidates (sets per mother, mothers per father, storage). artist-platform.md repress paragraph. Demos: make-a-record and artist-order say father and mother are archived; factory console archives the father on represses too, counts stamper sets per mother (shown in the genealogy and the customer's metal card), and the metal archive counts fathers and mothers. |

Factory console: inspection feeds in fixed columns
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 45s
The live inspection feeds (floor, quality, press, customer's latest copies) were one run-on string, so a shorter press ID (C1 vs D1-A) shifted everything after it and the cycle time showed twice. Each row is now a grid of fixed columns sized in characters of the mono font: time, stamper, press, order, result, with a header row (the row keeps the mono font so its columns match; only the labels change font). On phones the order column (factory) or press column (customer) drops. The full record key stays in the stamper cell's tooltip. Work order cards: station chip left, work order ID right-aligned in the header, the assignee moves to the time line, so card headers no longer shift with the ID length. |

New "Work orders" section in the factory console (#work), derived from the same simulated records as the rest of the page, one work order per station and job: - order stages: mastering, lacquer cutting, electroforming, stamper prep, test pressings, press run, packing, dispatch - stamper changes (planned when a set nears its life, in progress during the change), fault clearing on a stopped press (maintenance) - material lab: lab gate per compound lot, release test pressing, and the held lot's re-dry and retest (button starts it) - audio QC: each sampled copy's listening check Board: In progress (press floor first) / Next up (planned press runs and stamper changes with time and press, jobs arriving at the next station) / Done today, filter per station, KPIs. Each work order opens a kiosk view: the steps an operator follows (badge in, scan what the step asks for, with the IDs to scan, confirm), confirmation times and who did it, the order, lot or press it belongs to, and what it writes to the log. Order detail lists the order's work orders by station. Mastering and cutting are booked to the engineers, the lab, QC and maintenance to technicians, the rest to numbered operators; jobs finishing at night are booked to the late shift. README, digital-factory.md demo paragraph and the landing page mention the work orders. |

Payap: the point given fails zoning (DPT, checked 14 October 2026)
Point 18.797678 N, 99.038272 E, queried on the DPT land-use plan map: Chiang Mai comprehensive city plan in force from 25 May 2026, zone ย.7-1, very high density residential. The zone prohibits every factory under the Factory Act except the types in the plan's annex, and prohibits warehouse and silo businesses. Annex for this zone: type 107 (CD production, whose definition names gramophone records and recorded tapes) is not permitted here, only in the low density residential, special industrial, agricultural land reform and rural and agricultural zones; type 72 (sound recording, record players, gramophone records) only for modification or repair; plastics products and metal plating are not on the list. A record pressing plant cannot get a factory licence at that point. Caveats recorded: point, not parcel; DPT data is preliminary, the provincial office confirms; the pharmaceutical neighbour may be in another zone or type. Since type 107 is permitted in the plan's low density residential and rural zones, other Payap land is worth checking before the lead is dropped. - docs/land-listings/payap/: source record (zone rules, annex rows, the 51 types permitted in the zone) and the Thai panel text. - site-candidates.md: plot point, zoning row, status, the result with caveats, check 1 marked failed for this point. - README: project status line, layout line for land-listings/. |

Feedwater heat recovery: economizer, condensate, then HP-1
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 48s
The order to investigate for a fired boiler (biomass such as rice husk, or LPG): first a flue-gas economizer, second as much clean, hot condensate back to T-1 as possible, third the heat pump HP-1 where the press return has enough heat and the combined heating and cooling economics justify it. - Diagram: new ECON-1 (option, fired boilers only) between the feed pumps and the boiler manifold, with a bypass for an electric bank and the flue-gas path from the boilers; feed in 90 to 95 C, outlet and stack temperature are vendor figures. HP-1 is now drawn as an option and labelled the third measure. AT conductivity on the condensate return to T-1; off-spec condensate goes to the warm tank. - Found in Newbilt's offer 240620-04: steam and cooling water share the mould channels, with one steam/water outlet valve and steam trap per mould, so the condensate is only as clean as the cooling loop. Noted in the T-1 detail, sustainability.md and as a Newbilt RFQ question. - With most condensate returned (about 15 % flashes at atmospheric pressure, estimate) the feed tank needs only a fraction of the ~70 kW that heating all make-up takes, so HP-1 may not pay. - RFQ: economizer outlet feed and stack temperature, corrosion limit, pressure drop; rice husk ash is high in silica and abrasive, so fouling, cleaning, wear protection and a bypass. - sustainability.md: the order, before the exclusions. biomass.md: new "Recovering heat at the boiler". Checked headless (scripts/pw_sc_check.py): 33 boxes, 20 tags, no overlap or overflow, no unstyled pipes, no card or page overflow at 1600, 1258 and 390 px in all four cases, every box opens its detail, no errors. |

Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 47s
Twenty temperature tags on the pipes, each styled by its basis: green border for a Newbilt figure, amber for a design target or estimate, dashed for a value the vendor or a measurement still has to set. - Newbilt: steam main 10 bar ~180 C, header to the presses ~180 C, press outlets ~60 C (one per press, dimmed with the press when it is not installed in the selected case), supply header 20 to 25 C, oil cooler return <= 35 C (supply plus max. 10 K). - Design target or estimate: raw water ~28 to 30 C (ground temperature), feed to the boilers 90 to 95 C, heat pump feed loop <= 95 C, condensate after the traps <= 100 C (atmospheric return), extruder returns <= 35 C (2 to 3 kW at 4 l/min), heat pump source in <= 60 C, return header up to ~60 C mixed, chiller loop to HX-1 ~18 to 23 C (~2 K approach). - To be set: heat pump source out, warm tank mixed temperature, chiller loop return. The clicked details say where each figure comes from, including that Newbilt's 180 C is saturation at 10 bar absolute (~184 C at 10 bar gauge, to confirm). Legend explains the three tag styles.

New page docs/steam-cooling.html (site /demos/steam-cooling/): the utility plant as a clickable process diagram. Steam side: raw water, softener and dosing, feed tank with heat-pump feedwater recovery, feed pumps, a bank of two 500 kg/h boilers (third for N+1 as an option), separator and metering, optional accumulator, blowdown, the 10 bar header with a valved, metered branch and trap per press, drip legs and condensate return. Cooling side: Newbilt's press outlets are open (max. 2 bar), so returns drain to a warm tank, pass the heat pump, an optional dry cooler and a plate heat exchanger to a cold buffer tank, and VFD pumps feed the 20 to 25 C header at ~10 bar to every press, the extruders and the central hydraulic oil cooler; the chiller loop (three 250 kW air-cooled modules at 40 C ambient, fourth as option) stays closed and clean. Galvanics cooling (12 to 20 C) is a separate circuit. Operating cases (launch, Duplex system 1, five presses, one module down) show demand against installed capacity; design basis with sources, equipment schedule, RFQ questions.

Plant overview: header bands follow the rounded box corners
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 44s
Every machine box has rounded corners (rx 4), but its header band was a square rect inset by 1, painted over the box. At both top corners the band's square corner covered the inside of the curved border, so the border looked thin and squared off there, most visibly on a selected box. The band is now a path with top corners of radius 3, concentric with the box. Measured on zoomed crops in headless Edge (light theme, selected border): border thickness along the 45-degree diagonal against the straight edge was 0.26 to 0.42 on the Traceability box, Classic C1 and the VEX 50; now 0.9 to 1.13.

Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 53s
The page spent most of each second laying out the SVG, not simulating: the simulation itself costs ~26 ms per simulated hour. Profiled headless on Edge (CDP metrics and a timeline trace with invalidation tracking): - tokens asked the DOM for getPointAtLength right after writing a transform, which forced a layout of the whole SVG for every token, every frame (540 to 630 ms/s); - ~55 CSS stroke-dashoffset animations repainted the drawing all the time; - the press platens were SVG rects moved every frame, and any geometry write re-lays-out the whole SVG with its 275 text labels. Now the SVG holds only the machines and labels. Pipes, flow dashes and the conveyor are drawn on a canvas under it; tokens, records, platens, cakes, the extruder screw and plating bubbles on a canvas over it, both with the SVG's own viewBox transform, so pan and zoom need nothing extra. Routes are measured polylines (ptAt) instead of DOM path queries, and the 5 Hz tag, lamp and KPI writes only touch the DOM when the value changes. Headless Edge, 1600 x 900, before -> after: 1x 26 -> 60 fps, layout 842 -> 26 ms/s, long tasks 19 -> 0 60x 19 -> 59 fps, layout 858 -> 29 ms/s 600x 18 -> 60 fps, layout 855 -> 30 ms/s 3600x 33 -> 60 fps, layout 726 -> 29 ms/s Behaviour unchanged: all press states seen at 3600x, 47 stations open their detail, steam dip holds and recovers, lot and repress log, no text overflow at 1600 x 900 and 1258 x 800, canvas and SVG agree within 0.2 px at fit, zoomed, 1258 x 800 and phone size, both themes, no errors. |

Kit at Strauss catalogue prices checked October 2026 (incl. 19 % German VAT, which drops out on export): production 3 trousers e.s.motion 2020, 3 polo shirts, 2 T-shirts, a sweatshirt, S1 safety shoes e.s. Vasegus II low, ~293 EUR before VAT, ~338 with embroidered logos (embroidery price an estimate); office 4 polos and a softshell jacket, ~127 EUR. Ordering: Strauss ships outside Germany where customs law allows, shipping quoted with the order, prepayment, duty and taxes charged to the recipient; Thai duty on work trousers 13.8 %, BOI does not cover clothing. About 9k USD (~0.3M THB) a year at the start fleet. Check lighter lines for the press hall heat with samples. - revenue-model.md: workwear noted on top of the x1.3. - Fleet calculator: workwear line under labour (production and office kits a year, shipping and Thai duty), six new assumptions; 8,573 USD a year at the defaults. |

BOI: machinery import duty and import VAT, PVC duty relief
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 35s
User, October 2026: take the BOI duty-free import and VAT exemption into consideration. - boi.md: import VAT goes with the BOI duty exemption (Revenue Department answer on the BOI OSOS FAQ, checked October 2026); what it is worth: ~2.75M USD of imported machinery at the start fleet (block midpoints) would otherwise carry ~5 % duty (Thai MFN averages 4.1 % on HS 8477, 0 to 10 % across HS 84; estimate until the HS codes are set), ~0.14M USD, and 7 % import VAT, ~0.2M paid at the border and recovered later as input tax, mostly as a refund claim since exports are zero-rated. - total-investment.md: the blocks are vendor prices without duty or import VAT, so the headline already assumes promotion. - Fleet calculator: BOI promoted / not promoted switch and export share. Not promoted adds the machinery duty to capex and depreciation, shows the import VAT as cash at the border, and charges duty on imported PVC compound; promoted exempts both, with no compound duty on exported records and 90 % off for domestic sales (sections 36(1) and 30). A note under the KPIs shows what promotion saves either way. Defaults: payback 3.1 years with BOI, 3.2 without; adverse case operating result -31k with BOI, -68k without. CIT and BOI CIT exemptions still not modelled. |

Labour from base salaries; health care with check-ups for all staff
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 34s
User, October 2026: option to enter base salaries; the company should provide proper extra health care with check-ups for all staff. - worker-safety.md: new "Health care for all staff" policy (decided October 2026): group health insurance (inpatient and outpatient) and a yearly check-up for everyone, office included, on top of social security; the occupational checks Thai law requires for risk-factor work (Ministerial Regulation B.E. 2547: within 30 days, then yearly, by an occupational physician, records kept 2 years after the job ends) for the press floor, galvanics and maintenance; planning costs with sources checked October 2026 (group insurance ~8,000 to 18,006 THB a head a year, plan ~15,000; Rajavej Chiang Mai check-ups 1,290 to 5,990 THB, plan ~2,500 plus ~1,500 risk-factor tests, estimates); social security 5 % up to the 17,500 THB ceiling since 1 January 2026. - revenue-model.md: cutting engineer 50,000 THB is base salary; health care on top of the x1.3 (~0.35M THB a year at the start fleet); what the x1.3 is made of. - Fleet calculator: base salaries per role (the revenue model loaded rates / 1.3; cutting engineer 50,000), employer social security 5 % capped at 17,500, 25 % overtime, bonus and PPE, health insurance and check-ups for all staff incl. 4 office staff (scale.md 3 to 5), risk- factor tests for the press floor, galvanics and maintenance; all as editable assumptions; people table gains office and all-staff rows. Defaults: labour 5.25M THB (was 4.67M loaded), direct cost 1.90 USD a record, EBITDA 2.19M USD. |

Lacquer blank 70 EUR and cutting engineer 50,000 THB a month
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 39s
Team figures, October 2026: - revenue-model.md: a lacquer blank costs about 70 EUR, one per side, so ~160 USD a two-sided title before recuts; a cutting engineer costs about 50,000 THB a month; - fleet calculator: the lacquer assumption is now in EUR (70, one per side, converted at 1.155 USD per EUR; styli and recuts not included) and the cutting engineer 50,000 THB a month, both marked as team figures instead of estimates. At the defaults lacquers come to ~54k USD a year and direct cost to 1.88 USD a record (was 1.86). |

Fleet calculator: material, energy and labour cost, revenue and P&L
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 36s
User, October 2026: add calculation for material cost, PVC, carton, chemicals, labour etc. and revenue from sales. New "Money a year" card (and a "Prices and money" input card): - revenue: standard records at the standard price, specials with the premium, title services per title (revenue-model.md 3.50 to 4.60 blended, +0.60 to 1.70, 580 to 1,730 USD a title); - materials and packaging: PVC from the compound tonnage (rejects in, trim back as regrind), labels per pressed record, inner sleeves, printed jackets, shrink wrap, shipping cartons (estimate), maintenance; - stamper making: lacquer blanks and styli per side (estimate), nickel, silver and chemistry per electroformed part (revenue model: 60 to 150 USD a three-generation set); - energy from the fleet: machines, chiller and compressors at the hours run plus an estimated base load, roof PV off, PEA 3.2.2 blended rate and demand charge; steam from the presses running time at the biomass heat price (biomass.md); the start fleet lands in scale.md 4.3 to 6.4M THB; - loaded labour per role (revenue-model.md wages; cutting engineer an estimate), headcount now also counts QC, maintenance and cutting; - overheads, EBITDA, depreciation of capex (total-investment.md start fleet plan plus or minus each Duplex system and Classic), operating profit, payback; per-record cost bar; - Adverse / Central / Favourable presets from the revenue model ranges, USD / THB / EUR display; ladder gains revenue and EBITDA columns. At the defaults (1 M records, 20 % specials): revenue 4.42M USD, direct cost 1.86 USD a record (revenue model central 1.94), EBITDA 2.23M. README bullet; revenue-model.md links the calculator from its operating picture. |

Fleet calculator: machine park schematic with the stamper line feeding it
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 34s
User, October 2026: add a visualization of the machine park and the connected stamper production to the tool. - New card "Machine park and stamper production": one live SVG that follows every input. Top: the stamper line, lathe, Pheenix PASU, PPPU, PDPU (2 cells), PMPB, Sibert VSF, VSP, VSC, each with its count, flow a day and how busy it is. Middle: the press hall, each Duplex cell drawn as in the cell sketch (presses either side of the operator, EX 50 and EX 35 behind, trimmer in front) and each Classic with its built-in extruder, wrapping into rows and scaling down for big fleets; compound in on the left, stamper rack in and finishing out on the right. Bottom: central hydraulics, boiler, cooling, air and electrical piped up into the hall, amber where they exceed the plant as planned today. - Stamper production is now counted per station from the cycle times in galvanics.md (silvering, pre-plate four at a time, father, mother, stamper plus handling per PDPU cell, PMPB, Sibert steps; usable share of the hours 80 %, estimate) instead of a flat 20 to 32 parts per PDPU. At the defaults: 1 PDPU at ~43 % busy, as galvanics.md concludes. New assumptions with sources; the lathe rate (8 sides a day) is an estimate. - Requirements table: per-station counts and load; the URL hash now also reloads in an open tab (hashchange). Checked headless in Edge, both themes: no JS errors, no text overlap or overflow in the schematic at the default, 8 M and 30 M records, no horizontal overflow at 390 px. |

Site: light and dark mode for the landing page, plant overview and fleet calculator
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 36s
User, October 2026: add bright/dark mode to the site for both tools. - Each page sets data-theme on <html> before first paint: the saved choice (localStorage "cnx-theme", shared by all cnxvinyl.lol pages) or, without one, the system setting (prefers-color-scheme), which it keeps following until the user picks a mode. Toggle: header button (sun / moon). - Plant overview: light overrides for every SVG class; pipe colours are now CSS variables (--p-*), used by the pipes and the legend, darkened in light mode where the dark-mode tints were too pale (DI water, granulate, stamper sets, cooling return); press state text and the VEX zone fills use variables instead of inline hex, so they flip with the theme. - Fleet calculator and landing page: light palettes; input, flag, badge and ladder-highlight colours moved to variables. Checked headless in Edge: both system schemes pick the right mode, the toggle persists across pages, computed colours flip (press text, zones, pipes, legend), no text overflow in either mode, no JS errors. |

Press fleet calculator: target output and specials share to fleet mix and needs
Deploy test site / deploy (push) Successful in 37s
User, October 2026: calculations for the later business plan, starting from 2 Duplex + 1 Classic at 3 records a minute per Duplex and 2 per Classic, as an interactive tool on the website: pick the yearly output and the share of splatter/specials, get the machine mix and all the requirements (people, hydraulics, power, ...). docs/fleet-calculator.html (single static page, no dependencies): - target mode sizes the fleet (specials only on Duplex with its EX 35; grow with Classics or with Duplex systems; start fleet as the floor); fleet mode takes a fleet and gives its output at the specials share; - output, capacity, utilisation and the mix bar per machine type; - needs: people per shift and in total, galvanics operators, machines, connected kVA and average kW, MWh/yr, central hydraulics (flow, motor, oil, accumulator), steam, cooling and cooling water, compressed air, press floor, room climate, compound, trim, titles, electroformed parts and plating units; checks against the 400 kg/h boiler, 250 kW chiller and the 870 m2 Payap press hall; - ladder from the start fleet to a full Payap press hall, click to load; - every assumption editable with its source (Newbilt Duplex site requirements V14 and offer 240620-04, scale.md, galvanics.md, revenue model, Payap model; estimates labelled), shareable link via the hash. The Classic counts as one HRP 12 press plus one extruder until Newbilt states figures (Toolex Alpha leaflet as a cross-check). Site: DEMOS entry (/demos/fleet-calculator/) and landing-page entry.

Payap model: main gate, guard house, boom barrier; truck paving cut down
User, October 2026: add the guard house and the gate; the truck apron is far too big. Model (changed live in FreeCAD 26.3): - main gate as in the phase 1 RFQ: piers and two 5 m sliding leaves (shown open, parked inside the wall), 10 m clear (gate_width 8 -> 10 m); - guard house as in the RFQ: 4 x 3 m (guard room 8.4 m2 + WC 3.6 m2), window wall to the gate, guard desk, on the gate's north-west side; - boom barrier just inside the gate (cars and trucks both pass it); - truck paving: the 42 x 101 m apron (~4,240 m2) replaced by an 8 m gate road (550 m2) and a 32 m deep apron and dock face (1,600 m2) that joins the east service road; new params apron_depth, road_w.

Payap model: Duplex cells at Newbilt sizes; fire water per facility-security
User, October 2026: the Duplex sketch is not to scale, check it against the documents; the fire water tank is too small. Model (changed live in the open FreeCAD 26.3 document): - both Duplex cells rebuilt in the sketched arrangement at the documented sizes: presses 0.95 m square (0.9 m2) turned 45 deg, EX 50 0.5 x 1.0 m (0.5 m2), EX 35 0.4 x 0.8 m and trimmer 0.6 x 0.6 m (estimates), operator position marked; 0.6 to 0.8 m between machines; - fire water: the ~25 m3 yard tank replaced by the facility-security planning tank, 9 m x 4 m (254 m3 gross, ~200 m3 usable), new params fw_dia, fw_h, fw_x, fw_y, at the front by the access road, outside the production yard, on a ring foundation, with a pump house (duty electric, standby diesel, jockey); the yard process water tank is now the 5 x 3 m raw water tank of the phase 1 RFQ. Docs: site-candidates (cell, raw water, fire water bullet), facility-security (the Payap model draws the tank; 6 m racking and twice the floor area make ~200 m3 a floor there). |

Duplex cell layout: one operator, presses turned towards him
User sketch, October 2026 (filed as docs/equipment/ duplex-cell-layout-sketch.png; arrangement only, the user notes it is not to scale): operator in the middle, the two presses either side turned 45 degrees towards him, EX 50 and EX 35 side by side behind him, one trimmer per cell in front on the left. Sized from the Newbilt site requirements p. 10 (press ~0.9 m2, extruder ~0.5 m2, hydraulic aggregate ~1.0 m2, walk-around space, >= 60 cm to walls, room height >= 2.5 m): cell ~5 x 3 m, 0.6 to 0.8 m between machines; EX 35 and trimmer footprints are estimates. The layout drawing the site requirements refer to on p. 11 is missing from our copy: ask for it with the re-quote. README layout line for the sketch. |

Compound storage for tens of colours; stamper prep open to galvanics
User, October 2026: special designs will need tens of colours, so the compound store needs far more space, with maybe a few silos for black and the standard colours; and the wall between stamper prep and galvanics is to go. - pressing-line: "Compound storage" bullet (colour store with pallet racking, ~100 positions in the Payap model, estimate; outdoor silos proposed; compound stays on the ground floor, ~160 to 270 t a year at the mature fleet; sacks vs big bags decides the silo filling). - galvanics: stamper prep open to galvanics, one clean zone. |

Payap model v2: bigger factory, shared plant room, separate water treatment
User, October 2026: the factory is too small and needs room to grow (possibly ten more Classics), one shared hydraulic and air supply, water treatment perhaps in a separate building connected to the galvanics lab, and a fully equipped workshop (maintenance tools, 3D printers, maybe a lathe and a small CNC mill). Model (rebuilt live in FreeCAD 26.3, BIM objects, Params-driven, parametric check plot 135->145 m and factory 112->120 m passed): - plot 135 m (11.4 rai) with a reserve; factory 112 x 25 m, 16 bays, 82 m visitor corridor, fire wall at 90 m; - press hall ~870 m2: two Duplex systems (EX 50 + EX 35), the Classic, ten future Classic positions in two rows on a service trench; - central hydraulics and compressed-air plant room (~62 m2); - water treatment building 12 x 10 m behind galvanics: buried duct (gravity from the +1.2 m floor), covered crossing 6 m clear; - workshop ~200 m2 with benches, tool cabinets, 3D printers, lathe, small CNC mill, drill, saw, welding bay, press, washer, measuring table. Docs: galvanics (water treatment building, proposed), crane doc (workshop fit-out; lathe and CNC mill not yet priced; corridor now 82 m), site-candidates Payap section rewritten, README bullet. |
