You are not planning to sell them so I don't see an issue.

My thinking as well. When I was running RC Trains, if someone had cloned my transmitters or wiring looms for their own use, I'd have said, "Good luck to you!" It would have been different if they'd then sold them, especially if they'd undercut my prices.

As a Post Scriptum

We've just decided to circulate a list of the 300+ DVDs we own amongst our friends and neighbours with a view to loaning them out when they are confined to their homes in the current 'situation' ......

Presumably, this is completely unethical and could constitute a crime under copyright legislation..... 😳

As long as you retain ownership of the CD's I don't see a problem with lending them to anyone you wish, as long as there is no payment involved.

As for the sheep, I doubt that anyone would or could confuse my(our) sheep blocks, nor dare I say it, your plaster versions, with the individual originals.

I'd be tempted to invite the jobsworth who commented, to get a life!

It's not even worthy of a comment I'am afraid. Facebook....PAH...

I don't go on that much nowadays, since someone swore at me and the admin did nothing about it.
There are good people on there, but unfortunately there are a lot of idiots....

I posted something about the sheep on the 16mm NGM Assoc Facebook Group and someone has responded that what I've done is unethical and possibly illegal. Because I have cloned a commercial product, I have deprived the originator of income even though I am not intending to sell them.

Any thoughts?

I couldn't agree more. It would take an expert to recognise one sheep from another (but lets not get diverted onto that topic! :oops: )
