(NEW LOWER PRICE!) Either a 5"x7" color photo of the hovercraft or a hand drawing of the craft by yours truly. The photo will be the default option, but if you want a drawing just send me a message. If you want anything special in the drawing just let me know and I'll see what I can do.
Pledge $10 or more Pledge $10 or more
(NEW LOWER PRICE!) A CD of my friends' music which has inspired me to take on this project. Having such talented and creative friends was a big factor in pushing me into this project and I have always planned on using the hovercraft to promote their great tunes. (See my video for some samples of the music, or click the links at the end of my project description to listen to some of the songs!)

(NEW LOWER PRICE!) A mason jar containing some "magical" magnetic liquid and a magnet. It's a really awesome mad-scientist-y thing to have around. Endless fun can be had using the magnet to warp the fluid and send spikes of fluid hovering up in the air! See my pitch video for a visual demonstration!

(NEW LOWER PRICE!) A ride in my Delorean Hovercraft. This might be a little difficult to organize because it will require you to meet me and we will need calm winds and safe hovering conditions. This gift is best chosen by people who will be in the San Francisco Bay Area in the next year or so. I will do my best to take you on a ride for at least 5-10 minutes.

I'm offering my new wetsuit as a gift. It is a Xcel Infinity Drylock Mens 5/4 Medium Tall Hooded (it's for Men 5'11" to 6'1" and 165-180 lbs). I've only used it twice and I don't surf enough to justify such an expensive wetsuit (it's an award-winning, too-of-the-line model) This is a 2009 model, and they cost over $400 new. I will send it to you for a $250 donation!

All of the above gifts, but the ride in the hovercraft will be at least 30 minutes and I will try to teach you how to drive it! Again, the ride will require you to meet me and also requires good weather conditions, so patience is necessary when organizing the time and location.

I'm a 26 year old graduate student living in San Francisco. I grew up in Santa Rosa, CA. I really like surfing, traveling, cave spelunking, and making things. If my Delorean hovercraft project works out, I'd like to start a business building custom hovercrafts.
