Ok.. so IANAL, but..


In the USA, it's clear that an individual may construct a  model, copy, 
rendition or facsimile of effectively anything their heart  desires. This sort 
of activity falls (among other precedents) under 1st  Amendment rights of 
free speech, expression, and so on.   


Representing such an item as genuine, or offering it for sale, hire or  
other commercial purpose under such pretense, etc. enters into totally  
different territory, and would obviously constitute fraud to some degree and  may 
trammel the property rights of others. 


Likewise, there was nothing illegal about reverse-engineering certain  
electronic encryption schemes, such as the DVD (DECSS) code which was intended  
to lock-in control of DVD-disc playback. Distributing the results, on the  
other hand, may (or may NOT) have crossed boundaries. 


Don't forget to post a pic of your hacked-up API placard! ;-)

When restoring a Model 15 to its days of glory as a news machine at a  
radio station, is it illegal to hunt down an Associated Press plate to  attach 
to the front? If not, how does one go about finding one?
