“The biggest challenge I faced was in finding a mechanic to make the first prototype of the machine after which I took the help of a carpenter and designed a wooden prototype and only after an article appeared in the local newspaper about the machine, did people started to have faith in me and the device and started extended help.”
Next we asked him about his plans for the future with regards to the device, to which he replied by saying, “The banana machine is based on very simple concept and is very easy to use and can be operated by even un-educated persons. I would like to collaborate with a firm who want to develop their business in the textile field because; I definitely feel that that this machine has the capacity to create a revolution in the field of textiles.”
