This year we had two people working full-time on Inventor (Rob and Mike), and one person (Didzis) did a little of the Inventor and a lot of manufacturing parts on the CNC router table. I helped them out with setting up the website page templates and suggestions for how to divide the assembly models, etc., but all of the Inventor work was theirs. I was pretty amazed at their attention to detail myself - like when I saw Mike putting the zip-ties on the wiring! There may be such a thing as too much of a good thing...

Did you use the CAD drawings in the shop for specifications while machining parts, or did the CAD team based its drawings off of parts? Our team did the latter, but the intention was the former.

Most of the parts were made first and the team documented them, but this year quite a few parts were done in CAD for the router table - mostly using AutoCAD, but a couple were done in Inventor.
