At SIGGRAPH, our Community Wall was the star attraction in our booth, and it gave me such joy to showcase the work of our talented community.
So for MakerFaire, I want to go even bigger and better. We would love our booth to have EVERY material represented on the wall, and each panel to be designed by our community. Along with the Model Contest, this weeks Weekend Contest is focuses on showing off the potential of our materials.
So that's where you come in!
We are looking specifically for panels designed for these materials and we want to show off the potential of these materials.
FUD: Show us the details possible, and the moving or interlocking parts!
Full Color Sandstone: bright colors, cool shapes
Alumide: moving parts!
Steel: cool shapes, take advantage of the finish
Ceramics: imagine what a custom tile for your bathroom or kitchen would look like - what do you want to see?
and
WSF for color: interlocking parts, moving parts.
The restrictions are: (SMALLER THIS TIME SO WE CAN PRINT MORE!!)
Size:
15cm x 15cm x the materials required thickness - (6" high x 6" wide) so about 1/2 foot square. About 5mm thick is good for most materials, but may be thicker for ceramics,
Holes: four holes, one in each corner minimum diameter 5mm - these are so we can connect them together as show in the picture
Complies with all material guidelines
Deadline is uploaded by Wednesday August 28th. Post your entries here with a link to the model!
Each Material will have it's own winners, and there can be multiple winners so multiple prizes of $25 Shapeways bucks are up for grabs!
Lets see even more of your faces on our wall for MakerFaire!
Have a great weekend!
