Seeking Donations….

 

We’ve been working since last October to build the “Gravity Bowl” (or alternatively the “DogDish”). 

 

Progress thus far has been great.  The car’s frame is complete, the mechanical in place, the motor controllers have be designed and are currently being printed.  We are now at the point of finishing up the car adding seats, lights, a shade umbrella, etc. 

 

Unfortunately we underestimated the cost of this project.  Despite getting financial assistance from Burning Man and putting in 10k of our own money, we are now at a difficult decision point.  We’d prefer not to pass on including comfortable seating, lights and shade, but we’ve already tapped our personal resources.

 

We discussed the idea of trying to put on a fundraiser but realized that that would take too much time away from finishing the actual car, and fundraisers often only break even.  As an alternative, we were hoping that maybe members of our community might be willing to make small donations to help us complete the car.  (You would of course be guaranteed a ride on playa!)

 

If you are interested in helping out, please:

Thank you.
