    My day job is as an entrepreneur!

    I run my own custom suiting and shirt company in New Zealand: devonche.com

    Now my passion project is to do extraordinary blazers/sports jackets for the North American Market!

    Regards,
    Dev

    I traditionally work in hospitality and sales. I enjoy them for their customer interaction, I am very good at making friends in 5 minutes! People can be absolutely fascinating and I love meeting them. Unfortunately right now I live in Ecuador and, if you don't speak any Spanish, those career paths are kind of locked off to me! That is why I have started an indiegogo, to try and do something I am passionate about in a country where my skillset is basically useless until I learn Spanish lol!
    My campaign is up! Win or lose, my life has changed forever. Please take a look and consider supporting with a pledge :) And please share! https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the- ... 16662230#/

    Sorry to do this but I don't have any choice - there is no obvious link anywhere.
    How do you create a new topic????
    Once you create a project on kick starter, how do you get back into it?
    There is no obvious link on this page to allow you to do so: https://www.kickstarter.com/

    Good user interface design would dictate that you have an option at the top of this page next to 'Start a project' called 'Edit a project'.....or something like that. But apparently the designers of this web page have buried any such link, which make things bloody painful for newbies like me.

    I'm Dan and by day I work at the local library as a Librarian Assistant and I volunteer at a local hobby game store running events.

    However, a few high school buddies and I have started up a board game company as a side project and we are using Kickstarter to get off the ground.

    Heard about this community while trying to find ways to make our time more worthwhile.

    I am lucky enough to have found my passion project within my day job. I work as a teacher and researcher and I could not be happier in both roles!

    Hi Guys,

    I'm from Manchester UK, (and yes it is raining!!)

    Hope you're all good out there.
    We're about to launch a new funky portable barbecue called 'Uber-Q'
    It also has a rotisserie application that is connected to an app that tells you when the food is cooked and ready to eat.

    We are still in the KS review period but I would really appreciate some feedback prior to launch. All comments well recieved.

    Cheers

    Good job Leigh with the draft, when will you launch?

    My comments would be not to focus on the App in the title, rather the portability/folding aspects of the BBQ. I've worked on overfunded folding bikes, canoes and scooters - could we get in touch and help too? Feel free to message.
