Congrats tsalpha

Thank you to everyone who participated with this contest. It was truly amazing to see the amount of entries and the amount of designers who participated. First I would like to say that I was overwhelmed with the amount of entries (is that normal to have that many?) and I because of that, I didn't have a very smart plan for keeping track of the entries, ratings, responses, private messages and different types of files submitted. Second I would ask that if your entry was not chosen, please keep your original files private for a 3 months. The reason I ask this is that there were many close runner ups and I may decide to buy your design entry later. After that, I would encourage everyone to submit their designs to the public domain (thingverse, etc) for anyone to use and print (if you are into that). Thanks again and I'll do my best to answer any questions you may have.

He has no right to print like this without seeing my design and it will give an opinion an degrading for designers

I'm thinking Zicked has printed out the winning design.
He will make a surprised by posting the image of the printed and announced the winner :)

REDA thank you for the compliment.
Without knowing...We are all winning ...
but at this point we are waiting for the WINNER.

Even though we come from different parts of the world, we share the same common interest....SHAPES

Peter , Do join us in the invite room...the more the merrier.

Peter, good "point".

PETER good Luck
but I think the No. 1 gold Zulfadzryl REDA ;) hihi

This is exciting :)!

For my part, I followed exactly the request of the buyer. :) Anyway çe is not a product that remains forever it must be able to sell the maximum zicked ..;)

sloped is better than round http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sloped_armour
:)

I totally agree with you guys. I am not sure ALL those requirements could ever be achieved with this application, specifically Flawless and Durable. My only concern would be with an arrow hitting the device on a direct hit, that is why I think the best designs should have totally round edges, an open center and in two parts per the initial request. As Zicked gave higher marks for alternate designs it appeared that many of us changed course...I have to say this was a fun project for this site and with awesome participation. I expect Zicked is pleased with what they have received.... See you guys in the next challenge...8-)

Peter,
We share the same thoughts :)

As a recap the ingredients are :
Robust, Flawless , Durable, User Friendly, Usability, Uniformity, Manufacturability, Functionality and appearance.

thoughts*

My thougst is that the key words are :
- robust : no thin walls in the joints - after using it a lot the sun will cure the plastic making it brittle
thin walls=short life
- joints that do not allow the components to twist in the joint, less wear and tear, plus the shape is always the same, beautifully aligned.
- good looks - today's technology allows good looking products, there is no excuse for poor taste design.
-sloped surfaces for the arrow to hit without damaging the target.

Hi Zicked,

The correct answer is?

I am guessing Michal has the best design, and then mine....or maybe Mine then Michal....8-)...everyone had a great effort on this project and my hats off to all of you!

I choose Advandes, Dat Le,Reda,Fadli and Michal....

Drum roll....finger crossing

All the best guys :)
