I am torn between releasing for free both the instruction book and sticker
artwork files for the Brick Built Trains brand train set and maintaining this
product as a printed book for purchase. I don’t intend to send all my
designs to the printing press or hold them hostage for sales, but some
designs seem more or less worthy of a special accommodation.

To be honest I toyed with that idea myself for The Ghan and was swayed more by
laziness than generosity. I think that both are worthwhile. In some ways I think
releasing custom kits and instructions is actually more beneficial to the
community than releasing them for free as it provides an easy access point for
people into the hobby. We in .trains know where to look for free instructions
etc. but someone else may not and it might be their first introduction to Lego
trains.

Well, I guess I’m more interested right now to make the sales of the brick
trains go forward and find good homes.

I’m sure they’ll find good homes. I look forward to seeing your next project.
