Me too!
I've been churning around the idea of having an open source drawing section. I know there has to be people with cool cad skills and we'd love to be able to help make mods for/with you
I think once we have our molds in place and first runs for the 'Hamel' we're going go open source with the specs so people can fool, tweak, improve and run them on 3d printers or cnc machines. May be a stupid idea as anyone can then copy and produce a product but it's all in the spirit of what ECF is. Plus anyone can copy and produce a product as it is now anyway..
So of course there's another motive.. Being an ecf member since 2009, there have been so many ideas that were born from here and other similar forums. It's great to see manufacturers taking the ideas, improving, manufacturing and making them available to those that don't have the resources to make them but seems people are applying for patents that may have been born from open source and the more patents that are granted on e-cig technology, the more ability BT and BP will have to control the market once the fda dust settles. Who isn't going to sell thier patent and walk away with some $$$ if they can.
I say the more open source, the better for the e-cig industry..
