More from Wylen:
I didn’t set out to make “a” straw washer or a “great” straw washer. I set out to make the best straw washer… TheStrawWasher. I invented this machine to have the superior cleaning power.
1. Two ultrasonic cleaners that microscopically scrub and physically seperate any films and particles from the surface of the straw inside and out. These are positioned directly where people put their mouths on the straws, directing the cleaning power right on the most used part.
2. Four high-heat water jets that instantly hit the straws with a stream of hot/sanitizing water and double as a steamy bath to soak the straws throughout their wash cycle.
3. Two seprated tanks: the first being the ultra wash side that cleans and washes away the particles and liquids that sit on the straw. The second tank being the sanitizing side, fully sanitizing the straw and killing germs that might be left behind from the first tank.
4. And to finish it off, it has individual cleaning built into the design. Making sure the straws are separated while being processed inside the machine so they never touch and receive a COMPLETE wash.
I NEED YOUR SUPPORT
I’m a Young American Entrepreneur and I’ve nearly exhausted all of my money on prototyping costs, legal work, website fees, and everything I could possibly do at this point. I want to bring this product into the world but I can’t do it without you, the people of Facebook. I’d appreciate everything you can do, even if it is just a share!
HOW TO SUPPORT ME:
On JUNE 14th, 2022, my Kickstarter will launch. Kickstarter is a website that allows people to pledge their support and money to projects like mine. You can find the Kickstarter link on my website https://strawwashin.com/ or you can follow this Facebook page and I will post content, info, and updates (including a count down of 10 days until I launch the project). As of now, all I need is your help getting this idea out there and making it spread worldwide for these two months leading up to the launch. I’m also very open to podcasts, interviews, articles, or any other kind of opportunity, message me!
I’m asking for $142,800 to start my business. Once you start adding up costs, that is almost nothing in the business world. This will pay for tooling for injection molding, inventory, working space, starting extremely small, assembling the machine, and selling it all by myself. I’m only asking for what is necessary and I’ll work myself to death to make this business what it needs to be. I am all in. I’ve came too far to stop. If you all decide that you want to pledge more money than what I am asking then I would be incredibly grateful.
