So, we’re rolling.
First waypoint will be the 3D HUB HQ in Amsterdam. Thanks a lot for getting sthis started!
Hi @3dlyx, I think you’re project is outstanding ! It’s awesome to be willing to make a worldwide campaign!
Do you want to make it country by country or can we make it viral already ? I can tagg a few hubs in France, Spain, and South America who would be interested.
Also, is there a Twitter account we can mention to make it big on social?
Let me know, I’d be super glad to help!

Hi Julie,
awesome! I gladly appreciate any help.
For the main route around the globe I did think of a country by country approache at first, but the realized that there might be a lot of hindrances slowing it all down this way. So i adapted the map-mechanics in a way to insert waypoints later on in between waypoints that are already set.
so please, tag them hubs!
And we have the ‘freestyle’ and ‘tracker’ sections on the website. that are screaming ‘make me viral!’ as people can add their pictures to the galleries without being an ‘official’ waypoint, or starting their own travels by setting a printed model marked with a link or qr-code ‘free’ to be found by someone who then can continue the models journal and journey.
tl;dr
yeah! spread the news! let’ have fun driving this around the world and watch how many people we can reach.
there is a twitter: https://twitter.com/PhileasPrint ( want to use it with #atwi8p )
a facebook: Redirecting... (just started)
and a short-url to the website: atwi8p.org

Wow. That is a boost! Regard yourself as an official honorable travelagent that will be mentioned on the plate that we will print on mars someday. 
But seriously thanks @JulieSillamJulieSillamJuJulieSillam. I did not get any answer from the last 12 contacts to 3d hubs so that brought me down a little as I saw the momentum decrease. Thanks to you the optimism energy tanks are fully reloaded, and I’ll give out 3 new calls to hubs in asia right now.
Hahhahaha thanks a lot! Wish I could go to Mars myself to grave my name on it 
Thanks to you for having such a great idea! And don’t let this get to you: of course such projects take some time, but I’m sure you can count on 3D Hubs and 3d printing communities’ enthusiasm to make it a success !!
Let’s keep it up!
Brazil is also coming … !!

awesome!
That’ll keep me busy preparing those blogposts, tweets, map-updates. To send in pictures, texts, links or whatever you like you can mail directly to social@aroundtheworldin80prints.org
Of course you can ask questions, mail ideas and other stuff there too. But keep one thing in mind: Have fun with it!
cheers,
Lars
