ExampleA metal worker became fed up with walking what seemed to be half-way around the machine room just to build a metal box. With help from the works facilitator, he measured the distance he traveled to build one box, using a pinboard and scale map of his workshop area, as below. Using this, he simply moved the machines into a U-shape. the result was an easier and faster process, which also used less floor space.
