Re: Time to make a model

I have never done the entire robot in full detail myself. However, to help get a better answer, you might answer some questions. How detailed does it need to be?(down to the metal, screw, wire...?) Also, how complex is your robot? Some are much more complicated then others. A picture might help approximate difficulty and time. As far as more people making less work, I've not had the best experience with this. It works great if you have a specific method of doing it and work closely together. It can definitely cut back on the time if done well. If done poorly, it can take just as long because parts will need redrawn if the dimensions don't line up or communication isn't kept.
