Re: The FIRST Oscars

I am currently working on a 3d printable Plowie. I wanted one for myself, and I was going to print it at my University's 3d printer. When I finish the drawing I would be happy to provide the files for it.

Re: The FIRST Oscars

Plowie! (without eyebrows)

*not to scale

Is there anything glaringly wrong with this model? Even if you don't want to use it, I will probably 3d print one for myself.
The wheels even spin!

-Made entirely in Solidworks 2013
-Dimensions are approx 6"L x 4"W x 3"H
-All pieces are single color, to be epoxied together
-Made from blue, white, dark gray and light gray
-I don't know if I quite got the flares on the corners of the plow right, they are hard to perfect

OH MY GOD! This is beautiful! Could I order one off you? Or even just use the files. These would make great birthday presents for brother and dad (Both FIRSTers).

What we have so far:

  1. Categories
  1. Best Chairman's Award Video
  2. Best Narration of a Chairman's Video
  3. Best Cinematography of a Chairman's Video
  4. Best Animated Short
  5. Best Robot Reveal Video
  6. Best Build Season Vlog
  7. Best Comedic Short
  8. Best Video by a Rookie Team
  9. Best STEM Video
There's already a community animation award. Perhaps you should attempt to integrate, or at least "coopertate," with that one?

What about team highlight and/or event recap videos? Some teams make highlight reels after they compete to help build hype for the championship (or whatever their next event is).

Re: The FIRST Oscars

Could the people who produce the Game Animation Video be convinced to provide the model for Plowie?

Re: The FIRST Oscars

Getting the files from "Havabanana productions" would probably be the best bet.
Also I might be worried about any copyright infringement or some other legal laws that could potentially exist from copying it ourselves

I have very little 3d printing expertise so this is based on what I do know, and think would work. I might try out printing one or part of one just to see how it turns out. There is perhaps some issue of whether or not the wheels can actually be printed given their current architecture and I am concerned with the thickness (or thin-ness) of some regions of the model.

The top of Plowie's back is intentionally significantly thicker so as to allow some type of engraving, either before or after printing.
I am not sure about the "over air" capability of the Makerbot Replicator 2x our school has so I think I will have to divide some of the pieces into two and glue them together, though I hate having seams, to keep cost down (My school charges 35 cents a gram! and this thing is right at the $50 mark for me! [maker bot lists their stock at 1/7 the price, so it would be way cheaper if you had your own printer)

As soon as I have files I am comfortable with I can upload them

I may have my Kossel Pro at some point next month. It's no problem for me to print a few.

You're looking for Dave Lavery. You can reach him here on ChiefDelphi- and just for the record, the little robot's official name is Dozer.
