Hi Dan, a community manager from SketchUp will move it across for you within 24 hours. I’ll double check with them now. Thanks

Dan2001 · 2015-10-21T19:53:33.000Z

Not to be rude but it has been more than 48 hours sense I have submitted my model on the Sketchup Werehouse and it has not been added to the collection yet. Does the model have to be in the collection to be counted if would you please make sure the the sketchup team gets the models moved.

Hi Dan, i’ll shoot them a mail now. Could you send the link to the model on 3D warehouse just so I can be sure they find it?

Dan2001 · 2015-10-22T11:55:31.000Z

3D Warehouse

Desktop Coin Sorter

This desktop coin sorter is meant to have a variety of uses. The ruler slides in from the the top on the left side to complete the wall. Also on the left side, the protractor can be pushed into the side wall. The coin counting containers can be put...

This the link to the model on the 3D Werehouse

Thanks so much .

Thanks Dan looks like there’s 68 entries but 85 designs tagged up. Have emailed their marketing manager and community manager for assistance. Great entry

Dan2001 · 2015-10-22T12:06:36.000Z

Thank you for the complement and for helping me get my model submitted.

When can we expect the winners to be announced?

Gfisherwils · 2015-10-22T12:59:53.000Z

Hey Vrael,

Winner will be announced around 7 - 10 days after the closing date which is this Sunday. Potentially could be earlier but the judging panel are in three different time zones (U.S, Netherlands and China) so will try to coordinate as efficiently as possible.

Vrael · 2015-10-22T13:05:51.000Z

Thanks for the quick response! Sounds good to me, I’m sure it can be tough like that hahaha. Will there be more similar contests in the future?

mercury · 2015-10-25T22:40:25.000Z

Hi, So I have the same problem that Dan had, I just want to make sure that my model is moved over before the contest ends. Thanks

gabriela3d · 2015-10-26T08:29:55.000Z

It shouldn’t be a problem, @mercury. @54321qwer can you confirm that?

Gfisherwils · 2015-10-26T08:32:09.000Z

I’m getting SketchUp to do one final sweep to move across the models. There’s currently 20 that need to be moved so will make sure that they are.

Thanks

Vrael · 2015-10-27T02:42:23.000Z

So, now that the competition has ended is there a page that we should watch to see the results, or is it going to be announced just through email to the winners? Or something else lol

Gfisherwils · 2015-10-27T08:33:26.000Z

Hi Vrael,

We will be announcing the Winner on Talk and then linking that through our Hub mails and social media. We should hopefully have decided on our winners by the end of the week.

Thanks,

George

Vrael · 2015-10-27T18:17:07.000Z

Sounds good!

Dan2001 · 2015-11-01T21:37:12.000Z

I am so excited to see who the winner is for the competition. How much longer do you say for the judges to make the decision of who is the winner?

Gfisherwils · 2015-11-02T09:01:46.000Z

Hi Dan2001 i’ll be looking to announce the winners in the upcoming days

Dan2001 · 2015-11-02T12:50:09.000Z

Ok thank you. The anticipation is getting to me.

gabriela3d · 2015-11-02T18:45:20.000Z

I didn’t enter this contest so my my beef is not about not winning. No offense to the winner, but I wasn’t impressed with the first place winner. It’s just a bowl with and hold in it and a lid and a printed gear. The rest is electronics that was purchased and assembled. That’s what won this contest in my opinion. All the other winners made their project completely from plastic. This is about 3D printing and I feel all entries should be made entirely of plastic. Maybe in the future you can have a class that includes plastic and other electrical or mechanical devices.
