Wes 1's Comments

@mweivoda: I was thinking the same thing. Selling a license to build an unlicensed version of someone else's design? Incidentally, there's no such thing as "copywrite."

And a little marketing advice for the man ... if you really want to sell plans for something, do not include the following three things in your video:

1. The fact that it has no seat. (I do love, however, that he left out a seat because he thinks others will be intrigued by the frame.)
2. The fact that you have to reach behind you to control the throttle.
3. The fact that you have to get out and push if you want to turn around.

It becomes art by the imaginative use of imagery and medium.

And just because one isn't "going for art" doesn't mean that it isn't art to others.

"In the edible meadow scene, the tube that vacuums the chocolate up from the lake is stuck into a flying saucer-looking thing, which is because it is."

That's perhaps the oddest sentence I've ever read.

So, buying the raw materials: not OK. Using a microwave to smelt them: perfectly reasonable?

I believe the situation in which Arthur Dent found himself was being stuck on prehistoric Earth with no access to modern technology. Seems to me the real challenge would be to create a toaster from absolute scratch using only tools one could create himself.

As a bonus, it should be powered with hand-cranked electricity.
