How much of any of this is our individual IP?

The one that comes to mind is "Vigolix". If I were to start selling cabs that are identical to this design, and marketed them as "The Vigolix", I could see an argument if Vigo also intended on selling the design and marketing the same. Of course, Vigo would have to prove that the name is recognized and associated with him.  (see Q-Tips, Band-Aids, etc.).   There is a catch to that one though. If people start producing "Vigolix" cabs in quantity and he does not put efforts forth to stop people from doing so, he forfeits all protections associated with the name.

I think you're right, in the fact that we're probably speaking more of trademarks than of IP. From what I recall of conversations with my Son's mother (who practices Trademark Law) this seems more in line with what we should be discussing.

I don't think I have any specific IP regarding my manufacturing processes, but rather, would protect my designs via trademarks.

However, upon rereading that FAQ I have a couple disturbing thoughts, First Dave, Shadow, and Decosta Were instrumental to the conception (I was not aware of that), And worse, Jennifer came here with those goals in mind, But somewhere along the line morphed into OEM, Effectively  compromising her position here at the Byoac.

Heh. Someone else would have done it if I hadn't. I just wanted those guys to get their due credit, they're what inspired me to start the site. OND is da bomb, I wish I had 1/10 of his talent.

Don't be so hard on yourself. You definitely have 1/10 of Ond's talent.

What is on Saint's site is technically his to do with as he pleases.  Maybe enough for book 2?
