Why I Started Inventing P-2

This is Part 2 of what got me started on the whole inventing and patenting thing. My quest to find a solution for a problem I was having to stop paper artworks from warping after framing and hanging on a customers walls. It required me to study everything that had been written on the subject, but since no-one had faced the problem or written about it, I set out to develop my our solution. Once i solved the problem, the issue became, how could I be assured that other framers would at least follow the best practices to maintain a consistent level of quality. Patenting was the only way of doing that. In this video, I use a framed silk screen and a framed logo to demonstrate the problem and the solutions, even though it took over twenty years to develop the missing part.
