It's not a big deal to sand your own tummy cut , or any other body contour.
Looking on the bright side , this is a chance for Warmoth to have more in house designs

Cagey said:I'd bet dollars to donut holes that the cost of litigation is the controlling factor in this case. Even if you've got a rock-solid case that can't lose, it can cost hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars to fight this kind of war. This is why there are patent/copyright/trademark trolls out there now. They know that all they have to do is threaten, and most companies will knuckle under out of fear of bankrupting themselves for the sake of principles. It's the old "the operation was a success, but the patient died" fight.
Unfortunately, it sets baseless precedents which are then used in attacks against the next victim.
