Help Revolutionize Firefighting Technology with the Blay's Lay Spool
Hello! My name is John Calkins, and I recently graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Outdoor Products Engineering from OSU-Cascades. During my time as a student and now as an entrepreneur, I’ve been dedicated to solving critical challenges faced by firefighters and emergency response teams.
I’m thrilled to introduce you to my patented invention: the Blay's Lay Spool. This groundbreaking technology, developed under my company Fire Science Solutions, is set to revolutionize fire hose deployment systems. The Blay's Lay Spool addresses key inefficiencies in traditional fire suppression by saving water, time, and manpower—resources that are absolutely critical in fighting fires that threaten lives, property, and ecosystems.
To date, I’ve invested significant time, resources, and effort to bring this idea to life. I have a provisional patent in place, a proof-of-concept prototype, and an exciting vision for how this innovation can make a real-world impact.
Now, I need your help to take the next steps:
Advanced R&D: Refining and testing the Blay's Lay Spool to ensure peak performance.
Patent Filings: Securing additional patents to protect the technology.
Production: Moving towards a market-ready MVP (Minimum Viable Product) to begin saving lives and resources in the field.
Your support will directly fund these critical milestones and help position Fire Science Solutions as a leader in firefighting technology. With your generosity, we can accelerate our efforts to provide first responders with the tools they need to combat fires more effectively.
Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to making this innovation a reality. Thank you for believing in this mission and helping us bring the Blay's Lay Spool to the frontlines of fire suppression.
Together, we can make a difference.
