Personal Journeys: The Inventor
Chris Schutte created a kitchen device that has garnered a lot of interest but little money. How long will he chase the dream, and at what price?

Chris Schutte assembles a shipping box in the packing area in the garage of his Suwanee home. When he lost his job a second time, Schutte decided to scratch a longstanding itch and become an entrepreneur. His idea: a kitchen cooking device he conceived called the Hot Dog Bun EZ Steamer - a contraption made out of wire that you stick in a pot and perfectly steams the bun while cooking the dog. Before he knew it, his crazy idea seemed to be taking off. But sales fell short. One low point found him taking back tens of thousands of steamers from QVC when it couldn't sell them. Schutte hasn't given up, but he knows the time to make his dream come true may be coming to an end.
