Any good recommended books on how to build a scalable product and team? I'm looking for recommendations for two areas: 1) in general laying the groundwork in a startup to have the tools and especially processes in place to scale, and 2) tactical focus on building a SaaS project. I've been promoted into a management role from Dev roots, so need to learn more PM processes to be an effective manager in day job, plus would like to start building my own SaaS solution.

Minor project, but this board has been quiet lately. Amp chassis holder. Articulates to let you work on a chassis at a variety of angles. An amp chassis weighs a decent amount once you bolt all the transformers to it, and manipulating the chassis to solder inside it is a challenge. Hopefully this fixes that issue.
