About my project

My final project is designed to be a product I will like to sell, but not because of that I will prohibite other people from using my designs or share and sell the product if they like. At the end of the day, I learned most of the things I now about machines from people sharing information like me, and I am very grateful with them, because of that I consider the open source community to be part of my identity.
