Pakatas development

At last I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel with regard to the Pakatas Project. Prof MiS has made a wire prototype that seems to work. We had a meeting this morning where we tested the prototype. The filter paper held well and the contraption is compact and simple enough made from a single length of wire. There is room for embellishment but the necessary critical part of the prototype has been met. We discussed a little how to possibly market it or what group to tap for its mass production. But bottomline, we are happy with what we have got so far. Hope that we can carry it through to the finish line which is now in sight.



In photo - Early pakatas prototype made from bamboo. Created by Prof MeS. While it seems bulky, I am happy to note that there are now some people actually using it. Beside the bamboo pakatas is a wire study (already abandoned) by Prof MiS.
