that might be true if I were the only transformer maker in the universe. But there are many, many options. Sowter in England is quite skilled in design. Or, you could adapt the Williamson output transformer design which is in the public domain.

I am under no obligation to sell, gift, or put into the public domain any of the designs which we own. If I won't do it... then you move on and find someone to do a design for you. But there shouldn't be the need to strike out at me continuously.

:::You will not release the drawings to anyone.:::

again, as you seem to acknowledge.... these are my designs (otherwise why would you keep asking ME for them).... and, again, I am not under any obligation to sell any design to you or provide you with any detail of any design which we own.

:::I would have no issue with paying you for the trouble, and having to pay the volume producer something more for having to go to the trouble of dealing with you.:::

I don't release (sell) our designs for out of house manufacturing.


:::But, the design is *NOT* protected. Why should you see fit to demand what is not your right to posses?:::

since the design is not patented... and since I will not sell you the design or give it to you... then you magically acquire the right to copy it, reverse engineer it, and use our name to promote your unauthorized copying efforts? I don't think so.

And if it is "not my right to posses" the designs... then why would you keep on asking me for access to the design... or to make the design for you... or to give you the design... or to sell you the design. Of course it's my design... that is exactly why you are asking me for it.


:::I took it upon myself to get the job done. You refuse to even entertain varying the design from what you believe to be correct;::

which again, is perfectly within my rights as the owner of the design.
You might be disappointed by my decision regarding the use, building, or disposition of the designs... but it's not your property and hence you have no right to tell me how I should manage my designs\assets\property.


:::what I am creating is NOT a Peerless design, it is not a MQ design. Why do you see any conflict?:::


I don't see any conflict at all. I see the owner of a design saying he wishes not to employ it in certain ways... and then I see a disappointed inquirer throwing a temper tantrum cause the owner of the design he had an interest in would not accomadate him.

Again, get over it. No need to strike out. Dig up that Williamson public domain design. Evaluate it. Modify it if desirable to do so.
Have it made for you.

And everyone is happy.
