If you've ever heard of a company called 'Shelter Box', then their approach is highly successful; people donate money to them as they are a charity, and then they buy (in bulk) items of survival kit and shelter equipment that goes into a big box and gets shipped off to 3rd world countries or disaster areas (think earth quakes, floods, refugee camps etc). You could setup the chairs as a charity and then as people donate, you can buy all the parts needed to complete a single chair, and package them up as a kit and ship them out, to be assembled at their new home (clear pictoral instructions would be included along with glue and a tube of grease for the wheel bearings etc).

That approach would be good, or worth thinking about I reckon.

Hey Neil.. thanks for stopping bye and leaving comments.. (appreciate it!) I’ve never heard of the “shelter box” but I’m looking into it just because it sound great and defetnly worth looking into it..

Thanks again for stopping by sir and have a great week

you all want my opinion on how to make 5 illion dollars in 10 years, have a wife who is a minority, get a busniess loan in her name, Fanny MAy/Freddy Mac used to be the key players but we all know how that is now. Just get the woman owned minority license, you get acess to government bidding for computers, ic ie servers, friggin memory, laptops etc you will get at least 1 sick deal in a year, enough to feed africa or be a filthy american, or live poor never working again

Hey Jay…

Thanks for commenting on the information sir.. I changed the wording up a little (but) if your up for re-write Please feel free..LOL.LOL.. HHHaaahahaaa that great regarding the Donald Trump and grab the gonads.. Hhahahaaa.. thanks for the smile.. I hear what you saying regarding the woman owed / minority but that would mean that I the wife needs to get involved and I don’t think that’s going to happen, she’s been dogging me this intire build and thinks I’m just wasting money and time..But after 18 + years together I leunded a long time ago to stop listening.. LOL.LOL..

Have a great one Sir and thank again for your time

This is your project and you have the final say so. I also just tried to email the new address that is listed in your contact for the site, and it is undeliverable according to Yahoomail.

Awesome.. thanks Jerry!... I really appreciate the thought, the second set of eyes and the re-write…

Have a great one Sir..

If you want, I can copy and paste the wording into WORD (or program of your choice) and provide the fixes - but I didn't know if you were already going to do that.

On a technical side. I noticed in some of the pictures that the front caster mounts are not normal to the ground. This will result in the wheel tending to remain with the caster lead (distance between the centerline of the wheel and the centerline of the swivel) facing toward the front of the chair (did that make any sense???). Did you notice that at all with your testing?

Thank you for stopping by and leaving comments, I’m trying to get more pictures up but I’m having issues with the program.. I’m trying to YES I do need a word smith.. LOL.LOL.. if you have the time and would like to do a page or two that would be WAY COOL..

On the technical side: regarding the front casters I’m not following you ?? I’m sorry!, the front wheels swivel 360 degrees forward moment pushes the front wheels backward, backward movement swivels the caster forward and same goes when turning left or rite.. I’m missing something here I just know??

Thanks again for stopping bye and leaving comments / offering to help!.. YES I’ll take it if you find yourself with some free time..

Have a great weekend SIR..

Shaun.

Have you thought about how you will get the word out? Going through "appropriate channels" as reccomended by the suits may be effective, but I really think a personal campaign will yeild more public and private donations making a greater "gift" , rather than turning your baby over to the corporate machine and stepping back. Rage against the machine, Shaun!

Hahahahaaaaa that’s great I need anal now.. LOL.LOL.. thanks for looking at it Harold.. please feel free to forward comments back regarding what you noticed was incorrect…

In regards to getting to the word out, well once my website is up and presentable to the masses I’ll send out the press release to the local news & papers and see if / how far I can go with that, I’m also righting letters now to my favorite originations as well as making a list of marketing directors within other orgs to see if they can help me spread the word and seek sponsor ship, I’m also go to look into what Neil said . I’m also planning on applying for a government grant (hopping for 100K) LOL… not holding my breath but hey it’s worth the shoot.. if I cant get it moving with the next few months then I’ll change course and give it a way, but for now I’m going to see what I can and cant do..

Again… thank you so much for your time Harold I deeply appreciate it!...

Have a great one

Shaun.
