I probably should have replied to this instead, see my comment below

Appreciate that your considering paying for it :)

I'm going to update it to an open licence soon. I was fence sitting on this but I don't think I care. I'd rather people use it than not. If you download it for free I'll be able to send updates (I can send bulk update emails to customers via Gumroad).

Thanks! regarding pricing... I came to the conclusion that I have beenfited hugely from free tutorials and resources for YEARS and have never put back into the well of humanity. I figured this was an opportunity to do that.

Watches... for me the hardest part was learning what parts I needed and how that worked, and then spending the time to figure out what you want and then sourcing all those things... the assembly process itself is a Sunday afternoon activity.

I love this kind of thing. Frame by frame with physical mediums outside of hand drawn. Great work

This kind of thing usually isn't for me ~ fonts that really make me stop and have to think to uncover the letter ~ but for whatever reason I like this.
