It’s hard to believe the iPhone is only a decade old, when the world has changed so much. Today, I had to wait in a parking lot for a few minutes, and as I was thinking about the look of 622’s truck wheels, and how they don’t quite match the photo, I thought I’d see what I could do there and then.
So, I opened the OnShape mobile app, and changed a number of dimensions until I was happy with it. Then I wrote this blog post on my phone too. It’s not the hours you can spend on this hobby, but the minutes that matter. Now there are more minutes.
Reblogged this on The Erratic and Wandering Journey and commented:
I am a great believer in good technology liberating us from old ways of doing things, and this is a superb example that only appears to be obvious after it has been pointed out…
Without a doubt gone are the days when you sent a request and waited days for answer. The iPhone is a tool like so many others it links to your printer you can send photos text or drawings, whats not to like, other than the peace and quiet of days before electronic communication.
Fo me it’s important and makes life a little easier

Well said, Colin. The more we embrace new modelling tools, the sooner we will realize our modelling dreams!
