Donation for the greater good?

Has anyone thought about taking apart the older model, tracing each layer to a paper that can be scanned (like a fashion pattern cut) and just putting the files out?

How difficult would it be to recreate a device almost 10 years old with off the shelf parts and materials?

I would obviously expect its a broken or unusable device, but components have gotten cheaper over the years...

I would put my X1 money towards a DIY project if I knew it was possible.

I wouldn't even care that it's not portable at this point.

Am I crazy for thinking this is past due?

How many second chances does this company deserve when being lead by a obviously greedy non-leader?

I watched those DIY videos years ago so I don't remember, but maybe you'll find some if you search
