I'm in,,,,

I have no idea what you're talking about, you generally don't either,

I'm not sure what you're marketing, have no idea how much you need,

You're posting on the campfire forum, which can often have the maturity level one step above Mr. Rogers Neighborhood.

I see no problems here whatsoever,,,,,,I'm in.

3. How do you plan to use it?

In addition, you just solicited an investment across state lines. These activities are regulated under the Securities and Exchange Acts of 1933, and 1934. Have you discussed this with your lawyer so that you know you are staying legal?

the plan is to get 2 of the new protos (10-20 units each) made all identical to show that i can reproduce these with consistency and take them to some major retailers and talk shop..... all by the end of this year.

it will take seed money. base the amount off the valuation of the company. say 30-40% of the worth....?

Stay clean and sober for 2 years and then ask somebody to trust you with money.

Do you have a patent for the boiler, or any of the other products? It looks like a $150.00 stainless coffee can. I don't see how you can protect this as intellectual property. That would be the first thing I'd want to know before discussing money or production.

no patents. i don't believe in them really. it is a stainless can but with some manufactured mods including tig welding. anyone can imitate but i will always be the first as the photo on the site shows.... these are my designs and there are plenty more where those came from.

Ok, while you are doing that, you also need to talk with your lawyer about trademarks to start protecting your product names.

In addition, patents lead to additional revenue strategies such as licensing etc.

Do you have a business plan?

Do you have any experience with them?

You would need to bring something pretty significant to the table is you intended to support a $2.5mm market price. With no intellectual properties and less then 4k page views per month, you have some work to do.
