30 Days of Design Challenge

[ptodd]

Sounds fun! Will enjoy seeing projects abound. Hope to get a couple out over the month.

[Anselm-M]

Wait, did you already start?

[polarbrainfreeze]

Yes, I started. But I can start over if you want (or other people can lag a day or two behind me). My 30 days does not have to be the same dates as your 30 days.

I’m In! I only got my GFPro just over a month ago, so I’m bursting with ideas. … hopefully I keep up with the pack! I’ve been doing mostly original work since I got the basics down.

Looking forward to seeing all the new ideas!

This reminds me of photo projects I’ve done (Project 365)!
I know I can’t do this every day but I like @hansepe’s suggestion

@hansepe

That is what I was thinking, we can start a 52 week challenge with the same rules

Another idea is that I could come up with a pic or drawing of something I’d like to explore more later. So let’s say I’m working my regular job and on a quick break or a conference call and I get an idea and doodle it out in a notebook (I’m trying to go digital notebook right now on my iPad). Then later I have this huge book of ideas to come back to. I might be able to come up with one doodle or pic per day.

one doodle or pic per day

Sounds good to me!

@ChristyM

even if it’s just a welded word on a stick

I can do that with the plasma & CNC! Welding words on sticks - who’da thunk that’d be a thing?

I will probably start 1/1. I’m a couple of states away until tomorrow night.

@polarbrainfreeze

I need to post the designs on the GF forum in the MOAG category. I will post them with the heading (30 DoD Challenge).

I somehow missed this part. Oh Well

52 WoD
Seems possible!

[ChristyM]

Wonder if we can get one DoD thread for each day rather than separate threads…

[geek2nurse]

Or one per person, maybe, since we’re kind of starting at different times?

[geek2nurse]

…although it’s nice to see each design in its own separate thread. Hmmm.

[eflyguy]

I thought this at first, but honestly, if we end up flooding MoaG with new and unique designs, is that a bad thing?

… especially with all these new and “anxious to create” owners out there!

[ChristyM]

Figured each person could just add the design to the right thread when they’re done, but it was just a thought. If just 10 people do this and create a new thread each day, it’s going to be a sea of threads with very similar titles.

[Anselm-M]

I’m ok with this

[shop]

I think if they’re all different threads, it would help to identify what the design is in the title.

[geek2nurse]

Yeah, I decided not to title mine with the challenge info, I’ll just keep my own count.

[jeanneleigh]

I like this idea! Even though I’m starting off a little behind. . .

[jamely]

I’m sure I’m not the only one, but every time I see your posts and the “DoD” in the title, I think Department of Defense Who know, maybe you will make a 3-d tank with moving tread and turret! You are certainly advancing fast in your design prowess so far!
