Bnwitt, sir. Please accept my appology for my poopydiaper diatribe. I regret ever commenting on that ordeal as I was in no position to know what had transpired between the principle parties. I may have been a little too self absorbed at the time & it's painful for me to re-read my accusational tone in this thread.
Tiresome is finding my size 12 hoof entrenched in my mouth once again.
Your capacity to share is what stands out when I remember the dealings we had previously.
It's great to have you back here, I mean that.
Your friend, NG.
check yer PM's.
All excellent things are as difficult as they are rare__B Spinoza
Why would these layouts be pulled? And by whom? This is 'a tube amp builder's community' and all this stuff is supposed to be free to be shared. It's not a community if some folks keep a bunch of info secret and go out of their way to prevent others from seeing it. OK...so that means it never has been a community because this crap has been going on ever since I joined. Info being transferred via e-mails and PMs under the agreement that it NOT be shared. WTF? Despicable is what it is...and weak, weak, weak. Somebody needs to effing grow a couple and quit preventing the free flow of information! Geez...how do some people sleep at night with such low levels of integrity.

As far as I understand it, cloning an amp that is not produced anymore, is accepted. Cloning a current production is not.
It's not about "growing a couple", it's about protecting the forum from litigation. Schematics aren't copyrightable, but layouts are.
It seems you understand the rules...why don't you just play by them?

Exactly.
Chill out Fischerman. No one is holding anything back. Not all things are posted on this forum however. If an individual chooses to create a layout that is kept private and not public there are reasons for doing so. Private sharing is something totally different from public distribution.
