When I originally designed the DUST DOZER I figured if I was to get a few people interested in it I would spend the money, apply for a patent and have a manufacturer make the necessary tooling to make a few prototypes. People I showed my super crude design to were interested. Very interested. Even my archaic first sample worked pretty well. So I hired a patent attorney to write the patent application and started to approach manufacturers. I settled with a company in Chicago. I paid for the tooling and low and behold produced a working first prototype/final product. I instantly began to shop around the Dust Dozer to potential markets. The response has been overwhelming. QVC, HSN (Home shopping network) Menards, True Value, as well as many independent retailers like it. A lot.

This was fantastic, but at the same time not so good. The Design of the Dust Dozer as it stands is labor intensive to manufacture. Not so bad if you're talking about a few stores. But HSN alone requires 25,000 units. WE HAD TO CHANGE THE DESIGN! The $45,000 I spent on the tooling basically made me what is now a prototype. I hired an engineering firm to redesign the Dust Dozer. (As seen in the photo's) The NEW tooling is going to cost another $40,000. I have just about emptied my bank accounts. I refuse to go on Shark Tank. LOL!

I am so close. If I an get the new molds made I'll be able to produce the Dust Dozer in very large quantities efficiently and at a much lower cost. Everything in the retail world nowadays, especially with the big box stores, is price, price, price and stockable inventories. The manufacturing company I hired is willing to help me out. They want to make it. They'll willing to put up $15,000 no strings attached if I can raise $25,000. That's why I'm asking for $25,000 in funding.

I'm well aware that nothing is guaranteed. However with me spearheading this project without having to give up a huge percentage of interest in the Dust Dozer will only help make this project a rags to riches success story.
