"Personally I would really consider if I even need all that stuff before storing it in you attic. 1. Most items that are precious are not suitable for attic spaces (wedding dress, photos..ect)2. If you don't have to open your attic hatch.. don't.  This is the most prone place (next to electrical outlets and lighting fixtures) where inside moist air will find  its way into the unconditioned space. The more you use the hatch, the greater the leakage over time. This reduces your home efficiency and could cause mould and rot problems down the road 3. It' becomes a fire hazard4. If its an older house, there  is a good change of  asbestos and other bad stuff in the insulation / dust5. Dependent on the insulation in the ceiling assembly, if its something like blown cellulose or  mineral wool, the weight of the insulation + attic garbage could exceed the limits of the ceiling structures members (especially if already compromised)"

"Interesting use of materials. Be sure to look at existing patents to see you are not infringing . I know from employment experience that there is a patent on a similar product - https://patents.google.com/patent/US20140075840A1/en"

"Meh! I have a lot of Ridgid tools but I'm hesitant with the tool tube  The first thing that I noticed about the tool tube is the attachment points of the handle and shoulder strap . The handle and and shoulder strap connect to the top half of the tool kit, rather than the bottom. This burdens the latches with the weight and jarring when being carried. If those latches where to break (and usually they do)  the tool box become pretty useless... it becomes a stationary tool chest. If they were connected to the bottom half , the latches could break but the handle and shoulder strap are still functional. The video mentions the latches are metal but its metal connected to plastic.. it is as strong as its weakest point."

"Nothing you said is realistic. I'm huge into gardening and have been starting my seeds indoors for the past 6 years. I did read the grabcad competition details. What I am critiquing is you product solution in relation to your product detail statement.1. The project description at the top of the page says otherwise: “Water is added through the top and drips onto the seedling below”.  If there is water sitting at the bottom then a cleaning solution is needed ( see #6)2. I didn't say that the system is permanently a closed system but in the beginning the seedlings are enclosed. There are seed starting kits on the market that work pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQNnmgB61jc.  And your question about how seeds grow in the wild… you’re not going seeds in the wild, you’re growing in your kitchen, the variables are different, and the types of seeds being planted do not necessarily correspond to the area you live in. I have a watermelon patch growing in Calgary with success (harvested 3 melons so far) but with a lot of intervention.3. Big Plants / Small plants doesn’t matter with the scale shown… and if you did increase the scale of the produce I don’t think the function would follow suit.  There are plenty of home setups that would be much more efficient for the plants and in use of materials (additive or reductive)4. No this isn’t irrelevant. You will have to transplant at some point with some plants. With the plastic or peat containers, the vessel is turned upside down and given a slight squeeze, pushing the seeding out of the container. This concept fails to address this.5. Quit saying I’m not using reasonable logic… it’s just this product fails to address what it actually takes to grown a reasonable amount of food even for 1 person… I have a huge garden outside and microgreens inside, accounting for the loss from various sources (disease, pests, bad seeds, weather) I have enough for my wife and I.6. You say pretty easily... so it would be easily shown / incorporated into your design.  I do have running water I (and much of the serious gardeners) would not by this.I can go all day. You can take this free advice and crush out a 2nd revision or you can continue peddling this feel good / do no good product."

"Its quite apparent this designer has done very little gardening / starting seeds indoors.  It may satisfy an aesthetic criteria but fails where it matters. 1. You never water a seeding from the top, you water the plant from below2. The seeding usually requires an enclosure to keep the humidity and warmth in to encourage germination. A warming mat is also use with plants like tomatoes, cucumber, squash, watermelons. The gap between the soil and base would interrupt this.3. The vessel which holds the grow medium is sized for only a short period of the actually time the plant is in indoors. The plant is transplanted into bigger vessels as the plant grows, encouraging a deeper root base.4. Removing the seeding to place it into a bigger vessel looks like a pain in the ass. 5. The amount a micro greens grown is negligible.. everyone would get a pea shoot and that would be it.6. How easy is it to clean? ..More could be said but this is sufficient."

"I'm not 100% sold. I like the fact that it does not require electricity but the pull mechanism is suspect. Notice how the product bounces around while she is holding it down and pulling the cord ( most noticeable with the larger one)... Similar frustration would be starting a lawnmower . I would like to see how this is use by a person with mobility / dexterity / strength issues.  If the mechanism utilized the users weight and gravity this may be more feasible. If the pull cord remains, then a anti slip mat or a suction force would be something to look into"
