Thanks @Domenico_DiMare! We really appreciate PTC and the Onshape team for hosting this.

Alnis and Evan were fantastic teammates!

It was a ton of fun participating! Really a great opportunity and learning experience. Couldn't have done it without you, Michael and Evan!

Who gets the championship belt?

EvanReese

Michael and Alnis, I couldn't have beat you guys, so I'm glad I didn't have to try to.  I'm loving the other entries too! 

MichaelPascoe

Wrestle over it?! 
Doesn't matter to me.

If you smell what Onshape.....is....... cookin'!

This was a fun challenge, and the winners made some amazing models! I hope that there are more competitions in the future. I'd love to see different classes/categories for individual and group designs, since the 40% of entries that were done by individuals didn't really stand a chance.

MichaelPascoe

@BenTaylor Usually, I prefer to lone wolf it too. However, Onshape was trying to show off their cloud collaboration. I think this event did a nice job encouraging that collaboration.

Yeah I’m a 15 year old student and I knew I had no chance of winning but I still liked participating and seeing what the competition was.

As I was unpacking the box, I noticed something. Is someone at Onshape missing any scissors?  =P

How did the teams communicate during the 3 hour session? Did you run a Zoom meeting?
I would love to see a recording of that

MichaelPascoe

@sebastian_glanzner I'm not sure what the other teams used. We used Google Meet. It was pretty smooth, but we didn't record it.

If we are right, those scissors have been at Onshape longer than I have. Arguably the better prize.

woah. Looks like some Fiskars too. They didn't cut corners with the scissors (get it?)

They knew would have trouble taking the plastic wrap off, so they sent you scissors worthy of the award.
