    What IP? You have already 1) publicly disclosed and 2) used and or/ sold your idea (I assume the dates you provided in your first post are accurate)

    Its a coin holder / bin with a lid - not exactly novel or non-obvious.

    Well if it's so straight forward, then you should be able to make it on your own without the file. :thumbsup:

    This forum is for free ideas not free products.

    I put allot of my personal time into this project. Asking me to give away the file so that anyone can just hit the easy button would devalue what my time is worth.

    For most of us, time is money. You get to decide how you spend your own time.

    If you feel the time your going to spend drawing up a model and printing is a savings for you, by all means have at it.

    Then make your own if it's so novel and simple. Problem solved!

    Could you remind me where I stated there was a problem?

    Also, I stated it was not novel.

    I suppose you and I have different ideas about what it means to be a part of a community. I wasn't asking for a free product - did I ask you to print and send me one?

    I like the square pocket the way it is, hence why asking for the file was all the effort I would give this problem.

    I like to do things in my free time for enjoyment, not compensation. So now instead of working on my Geneva gear rotisserie assembly, I'll draw this up and print it.


    I hope you sell millions of these so you can recoupe the cost of your personal time.

    Great. Then I guess we won't have to see you complaining anymore because someone didn't want to give you something for free.

    In case I missed it, could you quote where I stated I was disatisfied with OPs decision not to share?



    ..also, what problem?

    If you want free models to print there are other communities on the web you can join for that.

    Since your new on here and have a new definition of "community", I urge you to ask all the vendors on here to give all their digital files to us. This way we can all just find a machine shop and easily cut our skid plates, CNC suspension, etc etc. I'll happily join them if it works out.

    The more you keep posting about this, the bigger the hole you keep digging for yourself. Just let it go man, just let it go....

    SO WHAT?!?!? Doesn't mean everyone is obligated to share their IP. You're gonna have to just get over it, champ.

    I am legitimately confused, are you not seeing my other questions or just ignoring them?

    Also, get over what? I have literally 0 dissatisfaction with OPs choice.
