When do I get my download?
We are hard at work finalizing our portfolio of drawings so they can be replicated anywhere. This process takes time! We are aiming for an early June release of Package #1. The boom dolly technology package is slated for the fall.
How do I buy this? Is it available after the campaign ends?
Simply fill out the interest form! We will respond with an invoice that can be paid online or simply send in a check. We will confirm your order and contact information. When the time comes, we will send you a link to download the package you ordered. The package of technology will be available after the campaign ends, but at a higher price.
Is TransWorld still in business?
Yes! We still own our IP for boom launchers, schnabels, and heavy haul steerable trailers. We will continue to work with you to design custom products, including boom dolly towers. We offer design, engineering and heavy duty fabrication consulting services. We can help you source material and components, and build this portfolio of products with as much involvement as you are comfortable with .
Where can I have this fabricated?
We are working on a list of preferred suppliers. Shops we’ve vetted that can produce the various products. Ideally, we work closely with a couple regional shops for each type of product. If you are a shop that would like to be considered, please reach out to us!
What is Open Source?
By sharing our technology, we aim to embody principles of collaboration, transparency, and empowerment. Together we can be a fundamental driver of innovation and progress in the digital age. In our open source initiative, we aim to foster:
Collaboration and Innovation: Open source fosters collaboration among a diverse community of designers, builders and users. This collaborative environment encourages innovation as contributors can build upon each other’s work, leading to rapid advancements and improvements.
Transparency and Security: With open source, the inner workings of technology are transparent and accessible to anyone. This transparency helps identify and address vulnerabilities more effectively, as the community can collectively review and audit the technology for potential weaknesses.
Flexibility and Customization: Open source technology provides users with the freedom to customize and tailor solutions to meet their specific needs. The flexibility offered by open source empowers individuals and organizations to create solutions that align perfectly with their requirements.
Cost-Effectiveness: By leveraging open source technology, businesses can significantly reduce their reliance on proprietary technology. Having the ability to make these products on your own means lower upfront expenses and offer long-term cost savings through reduced maintenance and support expenses.
Community Support and Sustainability: Open source projects thrive on the support of a passionate community of contributors and users. This vibrant ecosystem ensures the longevity and sustainability of projects, as issues are addressed collaboratively, and knowledge is shared freely.
