would be kept as a db, nor what the demand would be, nor where the lines
would be drawn for it... I can't go down to the store and buy one of
Larry P's hoppers... and if I bought one, I bet I wouldn't be allowed to
post an inventory (I'm guessing)...

The inventory is copyrighted, yes.

While a "guide to custom kits" might be an interesting thing for someone to
draw up, an inventory of each one may not be practical. I have changed
composition of kits mid run due to running out of things (I can't just have
more parts molded).

Interesting idea, though. Shows that the market for these is maturing, which
is one of the things that the Guild of Bricksmiths(tm) was trying to achieve.
