I just saw spider and cutter Yes Alexei you should create futuristic transport - whether that means a car, bike, personal plane, or whatever is up for you to decide. Write out a description of why you chose what you did in the description. Why do all these challanges want us to break the tagging function in Thingiverse? Car-models have nothing to do with "replicator2". They are no bug-fixes, improvements or replacement parts for that printer and thus should never have a tage labeled like that!
Thank you for letting us know! Sorry about your frustration with tagging. You can feel free to come to me or submit an "I wish this page" from anywhere on the site if you come across any other issues.

How does one submit a model or project twitter bot maker 3d printer makerbot replicator 2 desktop is already posted here?
Would changing the tag to "replicator2" on the project enter the contest? Is there any specific reason that I can not see my submission??? Is there any kind of delay??? I have also submitted my concept and I do not see it listed in the entries.
I have submitted up my model for the competition but I am not able to see my entry in the above entries. I have even tagged it!! Sara please fix it!! I guess that's something that designers do not have: Sara Sigev Hi there I hope you are fine could you please update on what happened with the last models as they still don't appear in the list Additionally something happened and the models reduced from to this morning how can you explain that!!!
You guys are some seriously creative individuals, MakerBot's going to have a hard time with this one! Pedders - You underestimate where a real designer comes from. We have a great background in both engineering AND art. We are able to make functional products that work superbly and look amazing at the same time. After all form follows function. Yes we are allowed to take some creative license, be we are not tied down by what is possible, allowing us to dream in new directions.
I can't find my project in the list while I have ulploaded it http: Can you help me? Dano You have to upload it through the "submit entry" button and add the "replicator2" tag.

Congrats to all winners I am not really sure what the main criteria for the selection were or twitter bot maker 3d printer makerbot replicator 2 desktop order of the winning models but never mind Let's stick on that this Challenge had a lot of innovative models with good ideas The story on was so Awesome!
Circular magnetoplamadynamic Thruster Seriously!!!! Tim Gueller You have a good point on what you are saying Why don't you try to contact a member of GrabCad Sara Sigel to check their opinion I don't know Tim maybe we miss something!!!
After lots of consideration thank you for reaching out to usthe judges and GrabCAD decided the design is 'similar' but we don't believe infringes on the Minority Report model.
So without further ado, congratulations to all winners. This was such an inventive and creative Challenge, I enjoyed all the entries! Obviously it was just a funny challenge But everyone have to admit that the judgement it was even more funny Sara forgive me if I am rude, as it is not in my intention. You will just find me on the other side of this decision.
As a matter of fact if it was about the copyrights of both models that have been submitted by the same user, he would have been in the court and you know that. Apparantly the similarity is so big that touch the plagiarism! Nothing more to comment and thank you for reconsidering a different point of view Tim's.
Unless, as per the comment referencing rule2, which is now deleted that the submitter was part of the team that worked on the models for minority report, and had permission from relevant copyright owners to submit to the competition, then no rules were broken really were they?
I think the quality of the models of the winners twitter bot maker 3d printer makerbot replicator 2 desktop pretty good for a competition like this.
Nevertheless, I do believe that if someone introduced a product to market that looked similiar to a Makerbot Replicator 2X, Makerbot would most likely challenge them on it. In my opionin, there is some lose of credibility on the judges for not recognizing and working around the issue.
