Today's Daily Brain Teaser (Aug 03, 2013)

Go!



A two hundred dollar purchase

With a twenty-five dollar rent,

Until you have all four of us,

Then an even return you'll get.



One is next to Illinois,

And one borders Virginia.

One has no state name next to it,

The fourth's near Pennsylvania



What are we?





Check Braingle.com for the answer.

This may have been asked before- I have been invited to a show, to sell some projects. Is it legal/ ethical to sell things I have made from patterns in a book? I have a number of projects I have developed myself over the years, but I can increase my offerings a little if I use a few things from books and magazines.


In particular, I am looking to do some puzzles from this book:


http://www.amazon.com/Animal-Puzzles-Scroll-Saw-Woodworki/dp/1565233913/ref=pd_sim_b_2


and-


http://www.amazon.com/Scroll-Puzzle-Patterns-Patrick-Spielman/dp/080696586X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1375459018&sr=8-1&keywords=scroll+saw+puzzle+patterns


The first book says, : Readers may make three copies for personal….. .. patterns themselves, however, are not to be duplicated for resale…...


So, I would not be selling copies of the pattern, but the actual results of using the pattern.


Any armchair lawyers care to weigh in? I do not want to step on the authors toes, he works for his money, and I do not want to get in trouble with the event sponsor. On the other hand- I find it hard to believe anyone is worried if I make a few bucks from their ideas. Particularly in the case of the Spielman book, it is about 25 years old.


Thanks for your thoughts!
