That's never going to work in the real world. It doesn't work for
books, music, or videos, and it won't work for building instructions
either. You need to come up with a way to make your product more
desirable than a borrowed copy. One possible way is to sell it with
the bricks. Then people too lazy to track them all down will buy
the whole package.
If you look around at what others are selling, it appears that kits
and CDs with bundles of instructions seem to work.
Good luck,
Don
