    If you have a product in hand, and you know the product name and brand name, then you can simply find and use the same manufacturer. if you haven't used this process yet, here is a KZread video on how to do it kzread.info/dash/bejne/mXyFw7Cpfru8YZM.html

    Hello Derek and thanks for the insight and great video. I have been working on building a device that rids hair and dirt from fabrics in clothing and upholstery. I just got out of a contract with a professional mechanical designer who got me some cad files and simulated movements of how I see this hand held rechargeable portable fabric cleaner to look and operate. This is my first product and I feel the next step for me is to get some mechanical engineers (experts in the field who ideally work in labs or manufacturing facilitates who make gadget electronics daily and regularly, and some PhD professors who can help with design and functionality). Ideally I have a series of cleaning heads on there that move in a start stop pattern but lost motors will not be able to handle this much frequency accelerating and everlasting constantly so a mechanical ⚙️ system built around the correct motor needs to be designed or innovated). From here we build the motor from the ground up all while wiring on the correct design and function of the cleaning head mechanism. I feel I need a solid team of EE’s & ME’s working side by side designing, prototyping then testing and repeating This process. I am confident I can raise funds form outside investors but I need to show them that this frequency can be built and last over 5 years and that I have a team in place to perform this out for me. Please lmk if you can help. Thanks, Bonafide

    1. Search Thomasnet.com is the best start in the US. Otherwise 2. Google search your product name with "Manufacturer" after it. You still have to weed out a lot that aren't actually mfgs. 3. Whatever mfg process your product is, search that word + "Manufacturer". 4. Hire a US based sourcing agent such as myself to do it for you.

    A story that needed to be told. Vidal and I started at the Coroner's approximately at the same time. He was from East of the river and I the west. He is Brown and I am Black. Our working with the dead and dealing with their grieving families caused us to reflect deeply on what we could do to improve the conditions of our individual communities . I watched Vidal struggle with his physical, emotional and economic situations. I became a Gang Intervention specialist after suffering an emotional breakdown after five years on the job. I was not well suited for the work I am happy to see him become a success in his business endeavors. He earned and deserves everything that came to him. Way to go "Vital", wishing you and the family the very best of everything for many years to come. Black Flagg, another survivor of the L.A. County Coroner's office.
