Submit your invention to Project Side Project.

Got a great idea? Or an invention that simply must be created? Then have we got a contest for you! littleBits, Shapeways, and a host of other communities have teamed up to help get your side project off the shelf and into the real world.  From music to hardware and writing to visual arts and more, everyone has a great idea or a passion project they’ve dreamed of doing.

The 12 most-voted projects will get hands-on mentorship from the Kickstarter team. The grand prize winner will be selected by a panel of judges and gets $2,000 in backing and a suite of maker tools worth $3,000.
