Final Decision Maker: Carpentry Contractors

The PCW or Portable Carpentry Workshop is the new generation of job site workshops.  "Roll it up, Plug it in, BANG IT OUT!" That's all there is to it.

Once your PCW arrives, you will mount your portable tablesaw, mitersaw and router in their places. (It's designed to fit most makes of tools - Rolling Trades Inc. can also outfit your PCW with tools if requested) Once mounted, your tools will not need to be moved or swapped again. Only one cord to plug in and your tools are always ready to work when you are.
The benefits are:

-No more costly set up and dismantling time.

-Work safer because the tools are mounted rather than working on the floor or makeshift tables.

-Tools last longer due to less wear and tear transporting from job to job. 

-Replaces several pieces of equipment with its all-in-one space saving design.  With less equipment to move around and everything you need at arms length, you will become more efficient therefore increasing productivity.

-Eliminates the need for a second person when cutting sheet goods and long lengths of lumber. Lumber is fully supported with our sliding configurations and extensions.  If you could lift it alone then you can cut it alone. 

-Plenty of lockable storage keeps your personal tools, equipment and hardware safe.

- Forklift ready for easy transporting.  Built commercial grade, you will need one of the following: a ramp, forklift, loading dock, trailer with a ramp or a lift gate on the rear of the truck to transport the PCW.

-Once it's off the truck, its compact size fits through standard doorways and in elevators.        

All of the above will save your company hours of labor on a daily basis and save lots of real estate on the job, in trucking and in the warehouse.
     
Invented, designed and built by a carpenter / foreman in the business for over 20 yrs. Granted a design patent and honored with the Grand Prize and a Gold Medal in the Construction category at INPEX 2008, Invention and New Product Expo.  Featured in trade magazines and also on the hit show "Under Construction" seen on the DIY Network. (Do It Yourself) Licensed contractors and tv hosts John DeSilvia and John Palanca say"This is the real deal, a brilliant concept that is well thought out by a carpenter / contractor"

Data Source or Basis for Assumptions
# of Possible Final Decision Makers 300,000 40% Est. $30B in const. spending in NYC in 2010. Now include all other markets & the need to find products that cut costs. PCW was invented on a commercial jobsite.(#'s from ref. data) 
Revenue per First Purchase $3,500.00 40% Most jobs have 2-6 teams of carpenters. If a new tool is requested, the company would buy 1 item the 1st time and test it. If liked, they would purchase for the other teams. 
% that will Repeat 10% 30% Most jobsites have several teams of carpenters and most construction companies have more that one job going at the same time. If they like the product and service,they will repeat! 
Number of Annual Repeats 1 30% At this point I would say it depends on the size of the company. Smaller companies may need 1-5 PCW's. Larger companies spanning all markets may purchase 1-20+ PCW's. 
Revenue per Repeat Purchase $10,500.00 30% This is a guess that some larger companies will purchase several units. They have many jobs all over the country and worldwide. They may make larger purchases if they like the prod

Producer Profit (EBITD) 18% 30% Based on preliminary discussions with manufacturers and no legitimate quotes at this time, the numbers above are my best prediction along with help from the reference data supplied

Successful Prototypes
-1st Successful prototype with consumer testing -Re-engineered drawings for manufacturers - no quotes yet -Granted Design Patent & Utility Patent -Sold 1st PCW 7/09
Cost to First Sale (remaining) $100k-$1M 40% I built myself and made my 1st sale. Drawings were re-engineered and ready for manufacturer quotes. Manufacturer must build 1st unit, test, re-work and begin mass production.
Time to First Sale (remaining) 1-2 yrs 40% My experience is in a fabrication shop. I built my prototype and first sale myself. I'm pretty confident once drawings are reviewed, a manufacturer can tool up within 3-6 months 
Confidence in Concept Claims made in description 60% A full size working prototype has appeared at trade shows, filmed for t.v. and used on the job daily. Many carpenters have used and tested the PCW on the job with great results.

"Roll it up, Plug it in, BANG IT OUT!" Your tools are always ready to work when you are but you can also slide them out of the way and use the workbench to get the job done!
Inventor(s) Commentary:
Final decision maker-Carpentry Contractor. The construction industry is huge in the USA & worldwide. The PCW will reduce bottom lines and at $3500 it's a great value considering the time and labor savings involved. At 28"Wx66"Lx55"H save on real estate as well. Also consider the accessories offered and service provided (outfiting the PCW with tools) can generate big profits. I have received great reviews from industry professionals at trades shows and product testing from carpenters on the jo
