Design collaboration between orchidians

hi I know that there are many different diciplines of jewelry art
represented in this forum. Doesn’t anyone here ever want to
collaborate with others here, in the area of design. Wouldn’t that be
a logical next step to the ongoing log. I guess that
designs are usually kept a secret for financial purposes, lord
knows that i hold mine and my styles on a pedestal, and would not
like to see them stolen for financial gain, but to share them with
others in a cooperative project would be of interest. Anyway I’m sure
that many of the people on this site have their own collaborative
efforts, with their partners or friends, but what about other people
from the orchid site. There has got to be people out there that have
thought this, yes, no, reasons???
