I have had an idea for a while, but now I want to actually create it. It is a tangible product, and it wouldn't cost much to produce. Can someone explain to me the best way of starting this up? I know I'd have to pick a material and dimensions but who do I go to in order to actually produce this? What do I need to do in order to create this.

U/snuggletough sounds like a veteran beast.

Great advice.

In today’s age of 3D printing you can get someone to fab a prototype mock of it if that fits. Then shop that around to see the feasibility and cost of production.

In the meantime marketing and use case is huge. Gather and network and dig yourself deep into the world of who this is serving.

You’re not selling the product. You’re selling a solution to the problem. That usually means you are selling the problem first and offering a solution.

Working that angle usually helps refine the actual product as well as easily sell it.

Good luck man!
