I don't know how to enforce a single use copy type of thing other than lawsuits after the fact but that only makes the lawyers wealthy. I expect the guy in England (was active here for a while) tries to recover all his costs in the first set of plans or data. Actually, iirc, what he wants to do is sell you a complete buck kit, all waterjet out and shipped to your door. That's about the only way to maintain control.
