Treating Product Design Like a Sport – Too Tall Toby, Speed Modeling Enthusiast
1Description
Does using product development software give you an adrenaline rush? If so, you may want to start competing in Too Tall Toby’s monthly speedmodeling challenges on YouTube. Welcoming users of any CAD system, Toby Schnaars challenges competitors to create the same 3D models as fast as they can without sacrificing accuracy – as he comments on their techniques for a live audience. The winners face off at his annual “World Championship of 3D CAD.”
In this episode, Jon explores how the skills developed and lessons learned from speed modeling are applicable to the everyday professional world. Toby, meanwhile, explains why he sees CAD competitions as more like “wizards’ battles” than sports, and he also muses how much luck is a factor in who becomes champion.
