With the boom of Arduino and 3D printing, adult dreams to invent and build a useful product could never be easier. Sites such as: Thingiverse, Instructables and Make turbo-charge DIY makers with tools, blueprints and instructions to build creations in their own home. While DIY.org gives child gadget inventors the chance to share and sell their creations, Tindie on the other hand lets those that built products using the technologies of their choice to sell home-made products that appeal to adults.
