Accurate Jaguar model available

Our team is creating an exhibit at the Virgina Air and Space Center about competition robotics. Currently, our 2012 and 2011 robots are on display. As the exhibit matures, we hope to get a couple other robots from area teams into the exhibit to demonstrate how different teams develop different design solutions to the same engineering problem.

We are currently removing useful components from the robots for reuse, and replacing them with facsimiles made with our 3D printer. When I printed the Jaguar model which was supplied by PTC, I found that the model is incomplete. It's missing part of the base. I added the missing part, taking dimensions from an actual Jaguar.

Three files are available for download at Thingiverse: the Creo (ProE) file; a STEP file that can be imported into your CAD software of choice; and an STL file you can use to print your own mock Jaguars.

A print of two Jaguars, with 10% fill, took 6.75 hours last night.
