[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 198605, member: 2011"] Hmmmmm, I just can't resist. Intellectual property is protected. Dealing in software and innovative application of software plus some specialty hardware for agriculture the idea, design and manufacture are all protected beginning with the idea. The problem is enforcing the intellectual property rights. In my small area of involvement i have no problem. It it gets to the point of push and shove I just offer the opportunity for a short walk out behind the nearest spud cellar. They can bring what ever weapon they like which is usually a fist or two. Me, I bring my buddy Pietro. Never had a problem and never had a visit behind the cellar. I was thinking where this thread has drifted. Here's my thoughts. If one took all of the best machinists in the world and assigned them to machine a specific part to some specific dimensions, you'd get as many pieces as you had machinists all built exactly the same. Now, take those same machinists and have them build a rifle. You wouldn't get clones of the drawing. There's a thing called 'touch', some have it some don't. There in lies the difference. Recall the story about the violin auction and the "masters hand". I was watching something on the PBS called "Celtic Women". A dang good looking and very talented blond young lady played the very same selection of tunes that my daughter has played for the public. The girl on TV was perfect in everything that she did. I was glued to the TV. It was very enjoyable to see and hear. However, my daughter, who by the way is as good looking as the TV girl (had twins ~2 mo. ago), but with long red hair, has made tears come to grown men's eyes, on every occasion that she played those same tunes. She has the "touch". It can't be defined and the only evidence of it is in the final product. I percieve there are several smiths on the forum that have that touch. Each has it differently, its their own. And guess what, each knows he has it, surprise! But you never hear [I]them[/I] mention it. My hat's off to those of you that have it and just stay humble. To ramble on just a bit more, I have a overbore cartridge that shoots a long very heavy for bore bullet at some bodasious velocities that out shoots every 222 REM 40X and Hart balleled Hart sleeved bench rest rifle "I" have ever owned. I only wish I had the shooters touch to match up with the builder's touch. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.;) [/QUOTE]
