3D Printing*The Future is now*

Donation protected
Hi, My name is Robert Radabaugh.  I served our country for five years in the United States Marine Corps.  After serving, I went to school for Robotics Engineering and continued my education at University of Pittsburgh. I then took three years of my life to help my father through the hardest times of all of our family’s lives before he passed away from brain cancer. Ever since I was young, I have always been interested in working with Robotics and Computer Programming.  I now have decided to put my talents to work and start my own business.  After doing hours and hours of research, I learned that I will need a little bit of money to start my business and be successful.  

So now here I am.  I am going finally open my own 3D Printing Business named Techne 3D Technologies. The name has a lot of meaning behind it. "Techne" is a term, etmologically derived from the Greek word that is translated as "craftsmanship", "craft", or "art". The 3D printing business is not going away anytime soon.  The best part about it is that most businesses have limits to what they can do with it.  In the 3D Printing world, the sky is the limit.  You are able to print prototypes for people, make parts for other business's that cannot find the part they need or even make toys for your loved one and all this at a fraction of the price. It is a very exciting time to be opening this type of business. 

My company that I will be opening will be very unique and will be able to offer the customer a range of customized 3D prints they want.  Unlike other companies that are doing 3D printing, I will be able to offer you anything you want or if you want me to design it, I will be able to do that as well.  Overtime, I will also have the option to take designs that are already made and let the customer modify it how they want to right on the webpage.  As I said, the sky is the limit.  

Also the footprint for a company like mine is very small.  In a world that we live in, with companies making products, there is a lot of waste, waste that goes into our environment.  My company will be environmental friendly because of the small amounts of waste that is use by producing a product.
As my company grows, I will be able to hire more people to work for me which will be giving jobs to people HERE in the United States. All the products will be made here in the United States. So you will not only be supporting a business that are giving job opportunities to people that need it but also have parts that are made here in the Unites States of America. It is a win-win situation.

This is really important to me because I have always had an inventive mind and always wanted to own a business that I can provide customer with what they want.  Every day I run into companies that only want your business and they don't really care about their customer.  I want to change that.  Customer service is always number one.  Making sure the customer is happy with what they want along with outstanding customer service is how a company should be run.  I am a strong believer in this concept.

Please help me and support me in starting my business and I will promise you as a donor, I will not forget anyone of you.  I will be sure to print a custom piece of work that you want and can have.  You can use it as a gift to someone or maybe you want a special picture frame for a special moment.  Whatever it is, I will give back for helping me start my dream.  Thank you. 

PS.

Most importantly, I want to make my father proud of what I am doing.  He is not with us any longer and I know this is something that he would always see me doing.  Again thank you.
