Hi all,

I am wondering does anybody have any experience commercialising DIY
inventions.

My background is Mechanical Engineering and Product design. I have an
idea which I have checked out the Patent for it (Haven't filed yet, not
ready to start that 12 month thing), Designed it, prototyped it etc.
And it works.

It is really geared at the hobbyist sector and people that work alot in
workshops.

I would be very interested to talk to anyone that has commercialised or
nearly commercialised a previous invention.

I do not know much about the DIY / Hobbyist market sector. I have
carried out a lot of secondary research mainly through acquiring
industry reports and it seems a good time to enter this market.

Thanks

Steve
