About this project
I want to use the funds to start my own business mass producing and modifying tectonic hybrids in the future while distributing them to the public. I will need a lot of money to start this off... a lot. My first prototype was incredibly difficult to make, but now that I successfully made one, I'm hoping to receive enough money to modify it and create more; that's my goal. To start a business doing this I will need your help. I invested so many resources with this first prototype. With your help I can start manufacturing much more and get a company growing. So far, I can only create tectonic hybrids by hand. I don't have the money to manufacture copies. That can all change with you.
Please Note: The Tectonic Hybrid is intended primarily for people with disabilities to walk. A walking stick is not always portable, so the tectonic hybrid has a portability feature for that. This is a medical device.
Risks and challenges
The risks come with prolonged use of the tectonic hybrid jamming once in a while. That hasn't happened after I made adjustments a month ago, so I don't believe it will be a problem. Another problem is that it may rust after a year's use; nevertheless, if such an event occurs simply apply vinegar to the metal to dissolve the rust. I've been starting to use chromium on some of my prototypes so that this doesn't occur. If there's ever a problem with the tectonic hybrid, I'll take note and invest my time to fix it with diligence.
