You screwed up, don't blame it on others, learn from it.

I'm not interested in your politics, you wrote:

1. I would like some money. I am tired of being broke.
2. I would like to be energy independent or as close as I can get. It's
reasonable that others want this also.

3. I would like some help with building. My equipment consists of a table
saw and a drill press plus some hand tools.

4. I would like some help with design. I can't afford to make too many
mistakes.

Engineering isn't running a saw in a garage, it is understanding and
applying physics in a cost effective way. Diesel understood Boyle's
law when he designed his successful engine, Concorde was a financial
disaster because it cost to much to run, yet it was a fantastic plane.
Even if you build a working model, and you probably can, that doesn't
make it an overnight commercial success.
I'm not trying to discourage you, I wish you every success, but
you need to learn reality. Power a wheelchair or a bicycle with it,
people will still want the luxury of power within their budget, not
novelty.

Thank you. I understand. A saying comes to mind: When in Rome, do as the
Romans do.
