THE REWARD aka THE GRAND PRIZE<\/strong><\/h1>\n

\"autodesk-university-2016-logo-2-line-color-black\"For 10 Days, starting the Monday after IMTS (September 19th<\/sup>) we ran another Fusion 360 CAM contest on Instagram. \u00a0So why a medallion you might ask?\u00a0 In the spirit of the Olympic season, we decided to provide contestants with a Fusion 360 medallion, and showcase their creative machining skills; or if they choose, design and manufacture their own Fusion 360 medallion.\u00a0 Well, the reward offered the winner admission and hotel expenses to Autodesk University 2016 (Nov. 15th<\/sup>-17th<\/sup>), and we thought to ourselves, why not send the #fusioncamchallenge winner to AU2016, and have them award the \u2018best machinist\u2019 out of NYC CNC\u2019s AU Class with the medallion!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

45\u00a0participants later, posting a variety of over\u00a0158\u00a0photos\/videos of multiple\u00a0iterations on the Fusion 360\u00a0medallion either machined, CNC routed, or dancing on a 5-axis table, all contestants demonstrated their mastery of the manufacturing process, knowledge of HSM products, and artistic flair.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The first couple of days were quite quiet on Instagram, (maybe because people were recovering from IMTS); but that wasn\u2019t the case after seeing the caliber of entries trickling in.\u00a0 Everyone wanted that Grand Prize trip to AU2016, and didn\u2019t want to settle for second place.\u00a0 I have to say, we have some awesome consolation prizes with 3D Connexion Wireless Spacemouse Pro\u2019s, Fusion 360 shop banners, and swag boxes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

To all the contestants, THANK YOU for participating in another #fusioncamchallenge, and as a community, we showed the power of our HSM Products!\u00a0 We do what we do because we love seeing what you do with it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cYour work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.\u201d<\/em> \u2014 Steve Jobs<\/p>\n

AND THE OSCAR GOES TO\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

I was honestly going to roll the dice on who to pick for the winner (there were so many great entries), and then Backhand Bikes trump me with this \u2018@SSCADCAM style\u2019 production video.\u00a0 Amish might have to pass the baton over to Jeff this round on a production video, but way to deliver a Hollywood movie trailer on the 11th<\/sup> hour Jeff!\u00a0 This was definitely stunning, and you made it even a harder decision, but the Oscar ended up going to someone else\u2026<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Nice work sir!<\/p>\n
