Website 2014 - Become a True Fan
We kicked off the 1000 True Fans funding campaign in 2009 - [1] - soon after we built the first prototypes of the brick press and tractor. This was a time when we operated on no budget - and put all resources into critical machines. in order to continue our work and do it full time, we asked people to support us for 24 months at $10 per month.

We have ALSO added donation amounts up to $100 per month. All the True Fans funds go to prototyping - and your support allows us to operate at a basic level even when there are no other resources.
