Who to solicit for a small project? (lemdro.id)

I'm not in the tech community, but I have an idea for a device I want to get made (just for my own convenience; nothing commercial or for an organization). Is there an existing platform for soliciting someone to build an electronic gadget for me?

It's not really meant for soliciting, but Tindie is the closest thing I can think of what you're looking for. https://www.tindie.com/ You could find something in the same ballpark of what you're looking for and contact the person who made it and ask if they would be interested in doing custom projects.
