	Currently, the Power Cube is ~~on its [[Power Cube 6\|sixth]] prototype. We are~~ in ~~need of CAD support~~ to ~~digitize the latest design. Those with relevant experience in (Sketchup, Solidworks, Inventor~~, ~~etc~~.~~..) are encouraged to~~ [[~~Contact Us]].~~		Currently, the Power Cube is in development to product release, after numerous prototypes. See [[Status of Completion]]
