Thinking ahead, for my saber hilt, I thought I would overcome the fact that my design would literally be a capped steel tube with a hole drilled in one end by buying an actual lightsaber, the Wicked Lasers S3. I was thinking the Arctic, but I won't lie, the Krypton's a real me-pleaser too.
To fund it, I was thinking about reaching out to the community here. I'm very fortunate to have the type of job where I have no upper limit on how much money I make, and supporting me costs nothing. To make this happen if I decide to formally ask the community for help, the only thing participants would need to do is go to my page, click on an ad, and back out of it. It might take all of 20 seconds. If they're feeling super generous, they can visit my YouTube channel, watch my videos, like them, favorite them, comment on them, and subscribe to my channel. All of that might take as long as 15 minutes. If you do it once a day for the parts you can repeat, I still get paid for each repeat.
If every single member supported me in that, repeating roughly daily I'd make enough money to buy out Wicked Lasers, bring it to America, and just mail S3s out to everyone who makes Padawan, with enough left over to build physical Temples in every state in the US and another 30 in Sweden.
To use a more realistic projection, if 5% of you helped me out in that once or spottily, it'd bankroll a Krypton and a donation to the Temple of the leftovers.
Thinking into the far future, this concept might be used in a lot of other ways to benefit the Temple, but first, let's see if we can make this happen.
So I want your thoughts. If I asked this, and gave the information, would you donate a little of your time to help me, if not daily, then even once? Would you be interested in a partnership with the Temple and my own projects to benefit both? Is this a totally stupid idea you'd never ever support in a billionfinity years? Let me know.
