The Wench

As I see this, it is a two way street, so bravo to yourself as well.

As far as the rest goes, I stated that if you came up with a better idea, I would apologize. I also have trouble seeing where you think I was insulting you. In fact, I believe it was me who was in the line of your insults. But to each their own.

If you are talking with the peopel in this thread, then I definitely applaud you. Keep up the good work.
My energy on this expenditure is through.

I will use this thread as an opportunity to once again reiterate my policy on the matter of people selling the Wench:

I am more than just asking when I say that nobody is to profit financially from the Captn's Wench.
I have no problem with guys sending out supplies, or making and sharing the device - but let it be understood that any such venture will be done at most for the cost of the supplies and postage.

If you feel your time is worth money too bad - don't make and send the Wench to people. I cannot stress this enough: No one is to profit from this device.


If anyone is feeling brave and wants to push this, feel free. I have plenty of resources and lots of time, and I will deal with you.

I can appreciate your sentiments, Hook, as well as your desire to keep anyone from marketing your idea as you were being gracious to help others with your design. Personally I would never market the idea, however, less you have a patent pending and have also patents pending for any other adaptations that could be substituted in your design would further hamper your protecting the invention. Threats utilizing all your time and resources (whatever those may be) really are quite meaningless. I think it better to just simply to continue to stress your desire to make the design available free publicly, as you already have, and continue to such, will ultimately deter most from attempting to become profitable through marketing it....just my two cents....later, d

I will only backtrack on this IF and WHEN you respond to every one of those posts asking someone to make them one. If you start responding with a "yes I will make you one and not charge you anything but the cost of materials and shipping". Then I will definitely take my hat off to you and apologize, because you are true to your word of trying to help people out and keep things free. If you are unwilling or unable to do that, then I have to say this is the next best thing in order to help people out.

Jakb, i think it is time to take your hat off. Cap thank you and check your PM's.

BTW the Capn IS NOT in business. He is just a great man with a kind heart.

He sure does deserve credit! He is indisputably one of the kindest men on this forum. Thanks Cap.

Mack,
I appreciate the kind words.
