>> Hi everyone!!

>> My name is Luke Taylor and I am new to the group.

>> If you are interested I would welcome any advice you might have on my

>> invention to the next step.
>>
>> I have an invention idea for a "method of propulsion." The concept
>> includes pneumatics and magnets. My idea is different from anything
>> currently on the market. I have had 3 consultations with engineers or
>> experts and they have all have told me that the invention will not work
>> and contradicts basic physics. I disagree and now that I have clearly
>> identified why they say that idea won't work, I would like to build a
>> basic prototype to demonstrate that the idea will work. I am done
>> designing the idea conceptually, and I know think that I need to move
>> to actual physically making the prototype. I plan to design the
>> prototype on the Autocad Inventor Series and then used a 3D printer to
>> print out the design. Here is the ballpark $5,000 budget:
>>
>> Research via Google Answers $200
>> Text books (in order to research/purchase specific components) $200
>> Desktop computer optimized for Autocad $1500
>> LCD flat screen $500
>> Components of prototype $170
>> Autocad Inventor software $500
>> 3D Printing of prototype $750
>> Misc. costs $200
>> Autocad Instruction Class $750
>>
>> If the prototype works it would create significant leverage to develop
>> a real prototype instead of just a basic conceptual prototype. At
>> that time I would like to hire a team including mechanical engineers,
>> etc.= whose expertise will be invaluable in developing a real
>> prototype. If the basic prototype doesn't work than I know that idea
>> will not work in its present state.
>>
>> What do you think? Any advice? Any idea of how to find financial
>> resources ($5,000)?
