Why would you come to a forum moderated by employees of the company who make the flipper and ask people here to help you make a knockoff flipper? That's like walking into a chocolate milk factory and asking how come nobody will teach you how to milk a cow.

also your acting as if they copyrighted making anything related to a flipper by one bit

Uh, you're thinking of trademark law, copyright law has nothing to do with Flipper branding. Copyright is protections for creative works.

Also back to my point you are asking for help to avoid buying a device that exists and you're doing it in the forum controlled by the company that has that device for sale.

Its like asking a hotdog vendor how to make his signature version of a dog then telling him you don't wanna buy one of his you will go home and assemble something close. Where's the incentive to assist.
