   An outrageously cool design! Any chance of you making building instructions for this model

I don’t care who made it. Instructions or no intsructions? Simple question.

Long answer


Let’s see:

Estimated time to produce instructions:

Creating model - one this size could take 4 to 8 hours to model, IF all the parts are in the system.

Placing steps, rearranging parts into a logical order, adding buffer exchange and or rotation steps - another 4 to 8 hours.

Rendering with LPUB - 2 hours (depending on processor speed)

Debugging and formatting instructions - another 2 or 3 hours at least.

So we’re talking a couple of days solid work to create decent looking instructions (this is why I never create instruction for models this size).

How much would you be prepared to pay in recompense for all that work?


Short answer

See Lenny’s post above

ps. Tell you what, because I like you, if Chris sends me some detailed exploded views I’ll do some up for you for US$200. Considering my usual rate for CAD work, that’s a bargain.
