There is an entire genre of engineer known as reverse engineering solely for this purpose. Companies spend millions on their R&D work. If you can’t see the difference in taking a design, improving it, and using it for a different application vs taking a design, making it cheaper and selling it to do the same thing you are a moron. ---

Nice work!!! You should build a few of these.
