The expression “the blacksmith’s secret” is often used to convey the same meaning as the Dutch expression “het geheim van de smid.”
Both expressions refer to a secret or a special technique that is known only to the person or people who practice a particular craft or profession.
The idea is that just as a blacksmith has his own unique methods and tricks for working with metal, so too might someone in another profession have their own secrets for achieving success.
You don’t have to invent the wheel, but you might want to be the company that invents the rims.

“You don’t have to invent the wheel, but you might want to be the company that invents the rims,” suggests that while you don’t need to create the most basic or foundational idea (the wheel), you can find success by innovating or improving upon existing concepts (the rims).
This highlights the value of enhancing or adding value to what already exists rather than trying to start from scratch.
It encourages creativity and improvement within established frameworks, showing that innovation can come from making existing things better or more specialized.
Je hoeft het wiel niet uit te vinden, maar je kunt wel het bedrijf zijn dat de velgen uitvindt.
MC Hammer
“Je hoeft het wiel niet uit te vinden, maar je wilt misschien wel het bedrijf zijn dat de velgen uitvindt”, suggereert dat je weliswaar niet het meest basale of fundamentele idee (het wiel) hoeft te creëren, maar dat je succes kunt vinden door bestaande concepten (de velgen) te innoveren of te verbeteren.
Dit benadrukt de waarde van het verbeteren of toevoegen van waarde aan wat al bestaat in plaats van te proberen vanaf nul te beginnen.
Het moedigt creativiteit en verbetering binnen gevestigde kaders aan en laat zien dat innovatie kan voortkomen uit het beter of gespecialiseerder maken van bestaande dingen.

Shoppers at the mall are asked to keep an eye on a fresh cheese stand, when two cheeses suddenly hop off the table and start running all over the place. But the cheeses aren’t possessed…sticking out of the delicious cheese wheels are long, disgusting rat tails! The cheeses make noise and squeak as they scamper off to find a rat hole to hide in.
