Oh, and i made this. A Gate Activated Touch Entry Personal Assistant Lever, as i mockingly refer to it, or 'gatepal' for short. I'm looking to build many more and sell them in 3 months - 40 years time, after much more exhaustive testing/designing and wet weather trials, obviously.

No more awkwardly leaning over trying to open the gate! Thumbs UpVery Happy

A physical prototype and footage of the product in action?

I think, given you've fast tracked several months ahead of schedule, you need to take a break and continuously update various websites with no actual proof of advancement while gathering funds.

Too much actual work to be part of pal & co.

Tell you what. Take my money now as it sounds as if it's available already. Blank cheque in the post.

In the meantime, you spend your time having a look see if there's any far flung place you can fck off to when it all goes tits up.

PS as it's been over 12 hours, please update your opening post with some pointless or random edits.

Put one on the other gate as well, set them at bumper height and you could sell it to car drivers who don't want to get out of their cars to open the gate. Thumbs Up

Remember my input when I'm begging at the gate to your millionaires mansion please Praying

I just sit on the drive revving the shit out of the Spacker until the wife comes out and opens the gate. Wink
I also get to shag my gate opener. Thumbs Up

I'm tempted to ride up to Grr666s house when he's at work
and rev the bike to see if I get lucky.
Anyone know where he lives?

Gatepal.

Good start but needs a wiper on the bottom to sweep leaves, crisp packets and such away
An optional water spray too would help maintain clear vision of
the driveway

bluetoof operated too

This is rather a cool little invention you got there...

Mockery aside, seriously consider patenting it. Because its a novel simple idea thats bound to get stolen and marketed now...

I like the idea of just bumping into it with the front wheel and it swinging open... Its neat.
