Default Re: Advice needed with funding

From personal experience, patent applications don't come cheap. Back in 1976 we shelved our idea after we'd shelled out just on $4000 and it looked like it could go even higher than that. We ended up making items to order until we'd recouped our costs.

But, having said that, depending on the future supply and demand, a patent is a sound idea.
