=Overview=
See [[Design Sprints]] for reference. In this design sprint, we will work on the 3D CAD for the [[CEB Press]]. The next build is on September 23, 2016 - and we are making updates.

<html><div style="width:100%; text-align:left;" ><iframe src="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ceb-press-power-cube-workshop-tickets-27226169205?ref=eweb" frameborder="0" height="400" width="100%" vspace="0" hspace="0" marginheight="5" marginwidth="5" scrolling="auto" allowtransparency="true"></iframe><div style="font-family:Helvetica, Arial; font-size:10px; padding:5px 0 5px; margin:2px; width:100%; text-align:left;" ><a class="powered-by-eb" style="color: #dddddd; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank" href="http://www.eventbrite.com/l/registration-online/">Powered by Eventbrite</a></div></div></html>

For the first time in project history, we are generating a fully-editable, open source 3D CAD file for the CEB Press which anyone can edit and modify using the open source [[FreeCAD]] 3D CAD software.

We already have a STEP source file for the brick press, but the file was not generated in FreeCAD - so FreeCAD cannot be used to edit the step file. Thus, the only thing we can do is to generate the entire file from scratch using a swarm process.

The good part is - we can work as a large team to build all the individual parts - and then assemble them rapidly into a completed CEB Press model. This can be done as a tag team, so instead of taking a month to draft the entire brick press - this can be done in a few days.

The goal is to convert an uneditable file into a FreeCAD editable file - so that anyone can adapt the machine to their taste - and effectively convert the OSE CEB Press into a CEB Press Construction Set.
