SWEET! That's very cool.

3-D, huh? Better include the epoch and all that other metadata stuff.

How about a spinning one of these?

I'm sure I could get a wobble in there

I didn't show you the base one, ... LOL

PRAISE: That's really cool, great job. Obvious talent.
NON PRAISE: Lettering around circumference is too dark. (I'm elderly)

Have a great weekend! B-)

For accuracy sake the pivot point should be directly below the center of the instrument.

That would really mess with people's minds.

Spinning a rectangle doesn't work well, how about a phone case, LOL

Decided to do a little cartoon work instead of working for a few hours. I made a Minion from a USB drive that was on my desk, a fabulous waste of time it was. So then with this new 3D model sitting there, I had to make some surveying Minion's and it went downhill from there. A Minion running a Wild T-3, does kind of remind me of who is out there to hire ....

That is a low setup ...

Minion's aren't big people ... I had to kick the legs out 39° to make them meet the ground. Of course I assumed the Minion as 4.5 feet tall. I did consider some GST-20 legs, but, decided on the correct legs for the instrument

I have it on good authority that Norm doesn't have any skill creating 3-D computer models. He used his 3-D printer and then videoed it spinning. 😉

It's still cool though!
