If you want to contribute CAD Designs to OSE, then join this team! OSE is always looking for help in developing the GVCS and ultimately in creating a collaborative network of people to draw upon for all open source projects. Whether you're a seasoned engineer or brand new to CAD this is a great place to learn, share and create in an open, collaborative environment with people from around the world.

The goal of the CAD group is to create a completely cross-functional design team that can utilize everyone's expertise in developing refined products. One person can create a concept or design and then send it out to the rest of the design/CAD team for review with their specific specialties in mind. Here are some of the specialties that we'd like on the team:
* For Modeling and Drafting:
** 3D Modeling
** Mechanical Design
** Drafting
** CAD Standards
** GD&T


On site at FeF, the prototypes are being fabricated with imperial units and material sizes. As such the initial CAD for the products developed mainly here will be done in imperial. Down the road with later designs the transition to metric should happen as that is the near-global standard. Designs must be carefully reviewed as pure mathematical conversions from standard to metric will not yield designs that are able to be fabricated properly as material sizes and shapes vary between the two systems.
* For design reviews and discussions:
** Hydraulics
** Drivetrain
** Welding
** FEA (Finite Element Analysis)
** Manufacturing
** CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing)
** HFE (Human Factors Engineering) & Safety
** Biologists for Bio-mimicry


However with a little time and effort all designs should be able to be converted to metric. Ideally, once a design is finalized we should be able to produce two, slightly different versions of it with one for each system.  Then when starting a village somewhere you can choose to build all of one or the other, depending on what tools/parts are more readily available in that area.

2011/10/20 Mike Apostol - I just created a title block I'm hoping to make the standard and then duplicate to the different sizes. Please comment if you would like to see any changes otherwise I'll make the rest of the sizes week of Oct 24th. There appears to be an issue uploading dxf/dwg files directly to this wiki so e-mail me if you'd like a copy at: mike dot apostol  at  gmail dot com

In order to facilitate modular designs and make it easier for growing communities to bootstrap their development, we should try to develop a minimal list of "building blocks" out of which to build larger machines.  Although different mechanical systems require differently sized components, we don't need continuous variation in every property. By limiting the number pieces we use in the machines we gain several advantages: sourcing parts is easier, buying more of fewer parts will likely get us better prices on parts, communities require fewer tools to be fully bootstrapped if there are fewer parts that need manufacturing processes.  In addition to these benefits it would be nice for the project as a whole to have a good list of what everything costs to allow for easy cost calculations of different design choices.
