photocopier

What were the difficulties that were faced in marketing the idea to a manufacturer?

[Grunty]

It was predicted that office workers would use them to photocopy their bottoms and fax the pictures to unsuspecting people. This prediction in fact came true, and the manufacturers have recently announced that they are increasing the thickness of the glass for that reason.

I'd expect one difficulty was getting copies ready for the meetings...

The main difficulty experienced by the inventor was that as the photocopier is big and heavy, he couldn't get it on his bike, so couldn't demonstrate it.
