[hackerspaces] Start a Kickstarter for Your Laser Cutter Today

[Tim Saylor]

Well, the worst that will happen is you won't have a laser cutter but you've
already cashed in your chips with whoever you convinced to go "donate" once
and now they'll be less inclined to "donate" for your second try even though
they haven't really donated yet.  Kickstarter is a great tool but you should
put some thought into your proposal before kicking it off.
