So, when they have some new idea, or just want to have some machine built to their own specifications, or even build some tool for their favourite Hobby, they get stuck.

It should be more obvious now, with so many "How I've built my own (whatever)" Internet pages and articles, that simple and easy solutions are at hand.

Also, just as when you sketch before you paint, you should build early mock-ups, and initial no-nonsense versions, before you invest your hard-earned cash on Professional Prototype and Model Makers: Most of them don't care about anything else than charging you big time... And at the slightest change needed, you have to order another time, another fortune!

There are lots of ways to make your Gizmo:

You can make it all by yourself;

Assemble it from Kits;

Get Lego or others to send you a box with only the pieces necessary for the thing you have in mind;

Order Mechanical or Electronic pieces to some Internet Companies;

Some more keep showing up, and you can have a combination of any of the above!

Or maybe you've got it all figured out EXCEPT for that piece or part you don't have a clue about how to get?

Well, a trip to Instructables.com could solve your case, if not, as I've given and collected solutions, around the Net, like a pack rat, you can go to my Site:

Build your own Prototypes

You have, of course, to look through the 40 plus pages, and see what's the ticket for you, sometimes it's one of the How-tos there, sometimes it's links to other peoiple's How-tos, sometimes there's resources you can find, and there's one Site or another there's a Link to there that, seen with perseverance, will be a real E-Learning experience.

Supposing you Invention/Gizmo/Experience/Toy involves gears and levers, for example, if you go HERE:

Reuleaux, learn from the masters!

You will find some Hundred simple machines of all kinds, catalogued and presented by kind and complexity.

Some of them can solve a problem you thought it took installing a Robot to solve.

Don't believe me?

See the Geneva escapement, for turning a continuous rotation into a set of sudden steps.

But, whatever you do, do not assume you cannot do it right away... You'd be surprised to see what you already know, and can use to do most anything reasonable, and some things not so reasonable at all!

Remember, think, search, and be persistent, nay, stubborn!
