My biz partner and I found the perfect product for value skewing.. Its a fantastic idea, but the design has flaws, and the creator has done 0 marketing.. We were in the middle of designing and 3D printing our concept (Engineers by trade) and, working on some promo material to start going "Door to Door" next week.. Only to discover the creator actually does in fact have patent, even though it was never mentioned in his material. Sucks! For the first time in our lives we tasted the Fastlane, and want it.. Bad.. Any advice? (Our product will unfortunately fulfill ALL the claims mentioned on the patent but the design and materials used will change for the better. Thanks!!! @MJ DeMarco @Andy Black @LightHouse

Patent is here: Patent Public Search | USPTO (Patent No: 10495345)
