Hey guys

I thought I would be cheeky and send a single email to you guys, you won't get another :)

I've been working on a project for a while now and I'm wondering if anyone wants to help.

It's a motion simulator for the Oculus Rift and it's pretty cool.

I have a website, a fairly complete design, plenty of interest online, some quotes for parts and a pretty good plan for getting it made but only so many hours in the day... I'm working towards a Kickstarter soon to fund the prototype.

Check it out : www.feelthree.com

There's no money in it.... yet, but we can share equity as per slicing pie : www.slicingpie.com

So when Facebook buys us out too, your 1% could make you a millionaire!! :p

Drop me a message if you're interested in getting involved and if you like I can come up to the Hackspace on Tuesday and talk about it in person.

Thanks for your time

Mark

Mark,

Seems like a really interesting project.

I'd love to organise a talk/presentation from you at the hackspace in the very near future if that's OK?

We're really keen to get some events setup to keep the ball rolling.

I can see that this might be mutually beneficial.

Would you be interested?

Thanks.

Seems like an interesting idea, but it sounds big, in both size and ambition.

But if you've already gone down the road for getting quotes then I'm assuming you know what materials to use and how its going to fit together?
