Often discussed as a tool used for stretching boundaries of law and reason these days.
But have any of you ever applied for one? In which country?

I'm looking to patent something, whay I'd like to know, do I have to have the object physically built or can I patent plans, and scetches?

The patent is awarded for the idea/invention/process, the plans and sketches are just what you use to document it...

you don't need a prototype necessarily.

can you patent a new use of an existing class of devices? or using these as a base for your invention, or you have to patent a whole new thing?
