I just turned in the drawing today - the printed version is huge, on a 24"x36" piece of paper. The three students with the best projects get to skip the final next Tuesday - here's hoping! :)

Very nice, my dad does that kind of stuff at his job. He designs molds and such using CAD (and has been for 15 years). Not my type of stuff though.
