Local vocational schools can be particularly helpful in the development and prototyping phase of the inventive process. There are vocational schools for virtually every trade imaginable, from electronics and computers to welding and automotive repair. Students work under the close supervision of their instructors. You can often get a prototype, or a particular part of a prototype, made by a vocational school for a fraction of the cost a regular shop would charge for the same work.
These schools can be a low cost source of help during the research and development phase of your invention. You will need to work closely with them and, of course, have them sign the contractor’s non-disclosure agreement beforehand.
