I was thinking the same thing, I thought “What about me? I want one!” What a cool product!

Coming across this website filled those voids. Hats off to you for being entrepreneurial.
Now that I know it has something to do with a mobile phone it triggered me to relate to something similar. A hingeless hinge phone. You may be interested to view it. Good to know.

I also look forward to something but never got clearly but I will not give up. It would be so helpful if you could encourage or can give some more briefing about it. I read your article in the Medium app and got to your website.

Haha love it. Thanks for the kind words, Dylan! Yep, this was a hell of a learning experience.

Keep taking small steps towards building something you’re proud of every day, man. Nothing great is built overnight, so keep working at it. Feel free to ping me here if there’s anything I can ever help with! I’m ryan@ryrob.com.

When I was younger I was obsessed with inventing something. I was almost positive that I was going to invent something that would be a wild success. I came up with multiple ideas on my own and would brainstorm for hours with my friend but nothing ever really came of it, just some fun.

Really cool that you actually followed through with a product idea and got to hold that idea in your hands. That must have been a great feeling. The fact that you knew someone with connections to manufacturers really opens my eyes to how important building a network is. That’s something I need to work on massively, but I feel like I’m so busy working on my online business that I can’t find time to network. I also just don’t know where to network or how to get started.

By the way, the fact that the product was made to be a subtle stash for weed is just hilarious and awesome. I’ve definitely thought of similar products before while walking through concert security, but a fake iPhone stash, that’s genius.

Anyway, I’m definitely going to try reading through more of your stuff. I feel like we have a similar mindset but you’re way ahead of me in experience so I could learn a lot from you. Thanks for the content.
