Onshape's Model of the Week Contest

lougallo

It has been a while since I talked about the model of the week contest and we since we have have had a number of users join our community since we launched, I wanted to announce the model of the week details once more.  

Since the very beginning here at Onshape, we have internally held a weekly modeling competition for model of the week and back in August we extended this tradition to all of your with a public model of the week contest in the forums.

Each week you can simply make one of your models public and name it MOTW - <document name> and you will be entered in the MOTW contest for the entire community to vote on.  If you win, you get a $25 Amazon gift card and a badge for the forums.  You may enter anytime during the week and the voting opens opens for a couple of hours before 4PM EST every Friday.

This is a fun way for us to make CAD fun and see what cool things we can do as the product iterates.  Show us what awesome things you have built with Onshape!

Hi lougallo, 
How to check whether my model has been submitted successfully or not?

A few of us tried to start it up ourselves. Not enought people showed interest. It only lastud a couple months before fading away. 

I'm sure the same happened to Onshape's contest. 

If you have a nice model you want to show off, look in the questions area, there is a thread there called 'have a nice model to show 2017' i'm sure there will be a 2018 one soon.

Would you mind setting up DYHANMTS for 2018? Your 'uptime' on forums seems to be pretty high..

About original MOTW, it didn't fade away - I suppose it was somewhat extra low impact weekly work.. It had a lot more interest when it was held by Onshape and it was official than the one we tried to set up..

I think it's still cool to have a place to show off cool models that have been made. Can ya'll make one of those threads for 2022?

@F14Z yes, this is coming back soon, stay tuned.

Is this now Model of the Month? If so, we need cool badges like the MoW badge!
