I think that’s a great story to read about. I’m sure his parents are proud of him. The device is not complex and other configurations would have worked just as well, but this boy has refined and PATENTED this idea. Everyone says to themselves: Oh, I could have done that same thing.” but they didn’t, while he did.
The piece is made from biodegradable matter. That will be a big selling point in this part of the country.
A year or two from now, when The Virus is all but forgotten, these items will also be forgotten or discarded, but right now, the market for such devices is hot and getting hotter.
I don’t understand some here calling it ‘fraud or fake news’.
What is being faked?
It says the boy has patented this item. Last time I checked, I thought it was a pretty big expense getting a patent. I had invented a couple items I thought might sell, but was held back because of the cost of the patent. There are those companies that advertise they will buy your inventions, but what I can see, don’t even waste your time with these, unless your invention is patented.....and then, only then, maybe.
I could have “invented” the Pet Rock...but I didn’t.
