THINGS YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW

Hm, let's reword that to: "Can I make money off your designs that you have spent many years of hard work on, despite having contributed nothing myself, and even you don't profit from, pretty please?"

Unless you have my written permission, you cannot sell my designs in any shape or form, be it either digital or physical format.

No, I do not. I primarily create designs for airsoft use, which involves toy guns that shoot plastic spherical pellets for recreational and entertainment purposes only.

It depends. Please look up airsoft gun laws for your country before purchasing or manufacturing one of my designs. Here are some that are well known:

  • United Kingdom - Anyone aged 18 and over can purchase an airsoft gun as long
    as it is brightly coloured. Those that regularly attend airsoft
    skirmish sites are eligible to register themselves onto a retailers’
    database known as “UKARA”, granting them the right to
    purchase a realistic looking airsoft gun.
  • Germany - Anyone above the age of 14 can buy and use airsoft guns as
    long as they are under 0.5J power. Between 0.5J and 7.5J, a
    special “F” marking on the gun is required and cannot have a
    fully automatic function.
  • United States - In general, anyone over the age of 18 can purchase an airsoft
    gun and it must have an orange at the end of the barrel.
    However, some states may have slightly different laws where
    airsoft may be prohibited all together. Please make sure to check.
  • Canada - Anyone over the age of 18 can purchase an airsoft gun.
    However, they must have a muzzle velocity must be between
    366 fps and 500 fps with a 0.2g BB to be considered airsoft
    replica.
  • Japan - The primary legal requirement is that all airsoft guns must have a muzzle energy below 0.98J.
  • Australia - Good luck mate!

Yes, you are free to remix it however you like, and I highly encourage it. But, based on the Creative Commons license, you may not monetise it.

Yes, you can. You can contact me via email or Discord to discuss your idea. However, I am a busy person, so I may decline requests if they are too complex or if I don't have much foreseeable free time.

Traditional manufacturing, such as CNC, milling, and injection moulding, etc, is typically inaccessible to the average person due to high start-up costs, machine size, and general sourcing difficulties. Desktop 3D printing, on the other hand, has completely revolutionised how we prototype and make things at home by solving all of those issues.

As someone who enjoys creating brilliant designs, it still amazes me that I can imagine something, draw it up in CAD software, and have it fully functioning right front of me within a few hours. And, because of its accessibility, I can share the same amazement with others, as I have done with the MOSQUITO.
Desktop 3D printing has opened a world of opportunity for aspiring creators, enabling them to transform imagination into reality right at home.

To showcase my skills and talents to the wider world. Maybe it will get me somewhere, someday.

Yes, I am mentally insane.
