What it does
I discovered that there was no app to share tools. Instead, when renting one from a big box it's extremely expensive. The price to rent a wet-saw (when I needed it) was $150/day. Brand new for sale = $450. Having design / dev background, I put my team on it and we built this awesome app.

I built a 1‑dollar feedback tool as a Sunday side projectDec 2025 · onedollarfeedback.com · ▲21I’ve always found it funny how simple feedback widgets end up as $20–$30/month products. The tech is dead simple, infra is cheap, and most of us here could rebuild one in a weekend. So as a “principle experiment” I built my own today as a side project and priced it at 1 dollar. Just because if something is cheap to run and easy to replicate, it should be priced accordingly, and it’s also fun marketing. 1$ feedback tool. Shipped today, got the first users/moneys today, writing this post today. Side Sunday project, then back to the main product tomorrow.
