I would check out your local SBDC for some assistance. Mine happens to have  full fledged engineering department that can offer everything from CAD drawings to fully functional prototypes. Looks like the assistance you need!

There would be a huge market for overunity energy generator, however the chance of making a workable unit is ZERO.  Such a device would violate all known laws of physics (and thermodynamics).

If you named your invention a "direct matter to energy converter", some people may get curious.  Cold fusion by Pons has been debunked.  Yes, energy has to come from a field or from matter.  Are you god?

Hi Silverdragonrs,
 
Take a look at my website www.sciencerd.com I am an engineering consultant and specialize in prototyping, CAD, CNC machine shop and a solid background in mechanisms. I`m an individual (sole proprietor) not a company so everything I do is with minimum overhead which is the real key. I can give you a step by step quote so it is very clear what it will cost and why.
 
What you are trying to do is extreemely hard as I`m sure you know but that`s what they say about every breakthrough. Keep plugging away and along the way you may discover something else just as important.

Hi Silverdragon,

Congrats on at least pursuing what those would call impossible (hey, try try and try again!).

The quote above is a good resource (free) for at least locating someone willing.

You also may try local Universities, our own University of Utah is starting (and BYU already has) programs which offer inventors to submit their invention for research, feasibility and prototype design.  They NORMALLY take in very complex projects.

This has the upside of getting numerous variations and research done on your project, as well as garnering interest from the corporate sponsors of these programs (which, these programs almost always have).

The downside, is of course the time-line, a year plus, as well as the Professor.  In the end it will be an academic exercise, and so your personal wants as the inventor may be overruled by the Professor of the class and/or program.

Good luck!
