Chop Shop In 3D
Chop Shop In 3D
07/06/2004 01:55 AMVirtual Cycles’ 3D Chop Shop, software designed to allow you to
build a virtual bike straight from your imagination. For a measly
$49.95, you can create and customize the bike from depths of your
mother’s worst nightmare! The downside is that it does not
appear to be shareware, and information on it is quite limited.
3D Chop Shop
3D Chop Shop
07/05/2004 12:43 PMSo I'm Googleing around looking for info on building a bike rack
for my garage to keep my kids from making a parked bicycle maze, and I
stumble upon this: 3D Chop Shop.
Virtual Cycles' 3D Chop Shop is interactive software that allows you
to build and customize your dream motorcycle. In complete and
realistic 3D, Chop Shop gives you the power to change parts,
accessories, and paint colors right on your PC.
Whether you are searching for that perfect part or paint job and
need a tool for visualizing your creation...or you simply want to be
creative and design cool bikes you can print and share with others, 3d
Chop Shop is perfect for you.
The rendered motorcycle drawings produced by 3DCS look pretty
realistic, but I couldn't find any 3D renderings on their site.
So far only a PC version is available, but they are working on a
Mac port of it. $49.95.
The funny thing is that my oldest son and I were talking just
yesterday about how fun it would be to have something like this to
customize cars (he and his buddy watched 2 Fast 2 Furious the
night before.) He goes nuts over the tricked out rice burners, but at
14 there's no way he's going to even touch a real car until his
hormones slow down. Like maybe 20 or 25. Doing something in software
though might be a good outlet for him!

eMachine Shop
eMachine Shop
08/27/2004 01:33 PMDesigning something in two dimensions and printing it out has
always been a fairly easy task, and recently getting something
"imaged" in three dimensions has become reality. But only if you don't
care how durable that something ends up being.
Now there is a better alternative; eMachine Shop will do it for
you. Download and use their free software to draw your design (or
import a dxf file from a CAD drawing), it will tell you if your doodad
can be made or not, then it will give you a cost estimate for the
work. You then send your drawing to eMachine Shop, and they will build
it and ship it out to you.
They do injection molding, milling, turning, laser cutting,
waterjet cutting, wire EDM, tapping, bending, blanking, punching,
plastic extrusion, and thermoforming. Turnaround time is generally
about 30 days; considering the fact that it's one-off work, that's not
unreasonable. The cost is pretty reasonable too. An article on cnews listed 10 brass doorknobs custom milled
for about $150. That includings labor.

Having The Coffee Shop As Your Office
Having The Coffee Shop As Your Office
12/16/2003 04:13 PMWhenever the discussion comes up about coffee shops and restaurants
offering free wireless connectivity, someone always says that it's a
terrible idea because those people will crowd up the tables and never
leave after buying a single cup of coffee. This seems to be a
simplistic view of things, and some coffee shops that offer wireless
have found that having people who come in and use the place
all
day as their office has been quite beneficial. The Dallas Morning
News has a profile of one coffee shop that
seems to host a large number of "regulars" who use it as
their office. They tend to buy a lot of product, bring in more
customers (for meetings and such), as well as be generally helpful.
In the article, one guy who works every day at the coffee shop as a
freelance graphic designer helped the shop design their new menus for
free. As for the big fear of them hogging up the tables? It's no fun
to be working when the place is overcrowded anyway, so most of them
have no problem moving on at points when it's really crowded.
Instead, they tend to spend the most time there at off-peak hours,
when there's plenty of free space.

Worke
rs Assail Night Lock-Ins by Wal-Mart.
The reason for Mr.
Rodriguez's delayed trip to the hospital was a little-known Wal-Mart
policy: the lock-in. For more than 15 years, Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the
world's largest retailer, has locked in overnight employees at some of
its Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores. It is a policy that many employees
say has created disconcerting situations, such as when a worker in
Indiana suffered a heart attack, when hurricanes hit in Florida and
when workers' wives have gone into labor. User Group Report out, MUG meetings proliferate
