Rotary Cutter Hydraulically Driven Tree Cutting Saws

Ok, can't resist. Are you working on behalf of a plaintiff, defendant or doing some sort of due diligence for an inventor?

If only I could get paid to spend time on TBN, well...life would be good!!

If there is more info you can share, the more the better...and I promise I won't charge for my research - unless you are willing to pay!!

Nice observation. For obvious reasons I can't go into detail. I can say that we do not represent a plaintiff looking to sue anyone.

As the son of a farm boy, I recognized early on that farmers are the original engineers. They can fix anything with stuff laying around in the shop. If they need a tool for a particular job, they more often than not build it.

I also know that local machine shops in rural areas are great at designing practical tools that fill unique needs. So, I'm hoping to discover treesaws made and sold by such shops.

It sort of hints at patent infringement tights. Who is copying who"s products.

If the farmer did make it, and did not patent it, does he still have the right to make more of the same product.

I would like to go into details; however, there are so many potential issues involved that I just can't. (Client issues and the general advice of most bar associations against giving legal advice on forums.)

Additionally, the recently passed America Invents Act will be bringing about changes that may impact the answer to your question. If you're interested about the new patent act, more information can be found here:

America Invents Act of 2011

Forums such as this provide very valuable advice to practical users and valuable prior art to patent attorneys. I greatly appreciate all the input received and interest in the project. Perhaps once the project is wrapped up, I'll be able to post more information.
