I am currently attempting to get the funds needed to assemble the prototype.
Should I manage this, I will be more then happy to allow it to be poked and
prodded as needed.
At this point about all that can stop me is lack of funds. Unfortunately
this has been the downfall of all my previous projects...
As for production, I imagine a full scale setup would be unimaginably costly
and time consuming.
To begin with I plan to approach a local company that is already set up
designing and building similar machines.
If dreams can come true then the Newton 2900 shall be built, one way or the
other.
At the very least there will likely be a very interesting prototype showing
up on ebay, similar to the bunn warmer...
I make no plans of failing or running away with investor's money. However,
few people dream of failure...
With that in mind, most of the money to be potentially lost will likely be
my own at first.
I cant expect to be handed my dreams on a plate.
Sitting around doing nothing but moan about the possibility of losing out
wont get a Newton built.
