13. Why so hard? {The short story} Buy premade Limited – many/most just not available to purchase! usually expensive + delivery$$ + WAIT Make it yourself – challenging to very difficult! Find supplier of every part

14. Why so hard? {The short story} Buy premade Limited – many/most just not available to purchase! usually expensive + delivery$$ + WAIT Make it yourself – challenging to very difficult! Find supplier of every part Verify footprints–does each part physically fit PCB?

15. Why so hard? {The short story} Buy premade Limited – many/most just not available to purchase! usually expensive + delivery$$ + WAIT Make it yourself – challenging to very difficult! Find supplier of every part Verify footprints–does each part physically fit PCB? Purchase + multiple delivery$$

26. Simple! The project is now available as a 'kit'! … except the PCB :( … and only at this one supplier But it is a GOOD start! People ARE creating these carts Other People ARE BUYING from the carts! Opportunity for profit sharing!

29. Emerging 2. Hackerspaces Many hackespaces already assemble/sell kits and run workshops on assembly = Great! But most hackerspaces limited – to 'full prices' But in China – parts at CHEAP prices and some other countries Plus excelent distribution networks

30. Instant project to kit conversion Many possibilites sell direct Swap/sell (bulk) kits to other hackerspaces Start/partner commercial operation Partner with existing Taobao agent/s Botique services for special orders …...
