Did you ever have an idea for an invention, but for lack of resources and time, you were unable to persue it?

Are you kidding?  I had a million of them!  The only three I can recall now, however, are bulbs that glow in the dark (I was going to call them Dark Destroyers), shoes with little wheels attached to the sides of them (I chose the name Go Go Galoshes) and a sundial that would make a distinct sound when the shadow reached a certain hour (the Wake-O-Rama).  I could have been a billionaire!!!

I was thinking having a drawer on the floorboard in the back seat of cars, o when stuff went down in the seat we would have a way to get them back.

*pursue*

Gosh El........SHAZAM!

I have ideas "all" the time.  If I only had a microscope and a lab to work in, If I only had another musical instrument.  If I only had a quick-fire kiln and all the accessories.  If I only had fragile tissue paper, in silver white and gold and various sizes and canvas. If I only had high end photography equipment. If I only had a place to store used car parts for my art, blow torch etc,  If I only had.......yadda yada yada.  I've learned about tools only being able to afford the cheap ones until I had an opportunity to use the good ones.  Forget the project unless you can get the best or better than usual.  The end results will reflect the difference and the better tools gives you freedom to try the unexpected. 
Part of the problem is particular inspiration may only come by once and then it is gone.  I wonder how many people have had life and world changing ideas but without a way to bring it into fruition it becomes lost until the next person comes along and hopefully has better resources or luck.
