Inventor NG World Cup - May 2005

[Anonymous]

Welcome to the IvNGWC 2005 challenge...

The deadline for this month's challenge is May 20th 2005.

You will get points on the scoreboard just for trying, and zero points for
not letting me know you've tried thus giving you a zero on the scoreboard
which in the end of the season will affect your point average.

The May contest drawing is in Customer Files (iCF), Subject:
"Inventor NG World Cup - May05" dated May 1. 2005.

Setup note: The drawing sheet is in millimeters and in first angle
projection.

Follow these simple rules:
1 - Print the drawing sheet and don't look at it.
2 - Setup your environment (mm) and start a new sketch.
3 - Place the drawing face down, start the clock, flip the drawing over and
model it as fast as possible ending up with the correct volume at the
Accuracy setting 'Very High' (don't use the 'Update' button) as indicated on
the drawing sheet.

#1 priority: Correct volume of a correct model with the Physical Properties
Accuracy setting 'Very High'.
#2 priority: Fastest time.

Let me know how fast you can model it (don't cheat - it's no satisfaction to
be the fastest when you know you've cheated. Everybody can cut off at least
50% of the initial time on a second try).


Email your resulting time directly to me (to keep it a secret) along with
your model and comments (ph@ambu.com).

NOTE: Please follow these guidelines before posting files to me directly:
1 - Pull the End of Part marker up below the Origin folder in the Browser
tree.
2 - Use Winzip (www.winzip.com) or Winrar (www.rarlab.com) to compact the
file.

Remember to follow the reminders with the current standings in the
discussion group with possible late-breaking news about the challenge.

I'll report back with the results and an updated scoreboard when the
'contest' is over.

Happy Inventing,
