2022

The build and simulation took 16 minutes. Factor of safety was 2.6 and I was only off by 0.1 comparing with the solution video of 2.5 that SolidWorks provided. The Mass was exact as the solutions

2021

The build and simulation took 13 minutes. Factor of safety was 3.3 and it matched up with the solution video that SolidWorks provided

2020

Phase 1 took 26 minutes, and phase 2 took about 12 minutes

2019

Phase 1 took 32 minutes, and phase 2 took about 16 minutes

2018

Phase 1 took 30 minutes, and phase 2 took about 18 minutes

2017

Phase 1 took 48 minutes, and phase 2 took about 23 minutes

2016

Phase 1 took about 37 minutes, and phase 2 took about 24 minutes. Phase 2 made the extruded cuts into revolved cuts

2015

Phase 1 took 20 minutes, and phase 2 took little longer with 28 minutes

2014

Phase 1 took 24 minutes, and phase 2 took about 8 minutes. This was a fairly easy part. The only major change was the outer radius

2013

Phase 1 took 32 minutes, and phase 2 took 22 minutes

2012

Phase 1 took 30 minutes, and phase 2 took 20 minutes. This was similar to 2010 model

2011

Phase 1 took about 30 minutes, and phase 2 took 20 minutes. Phase 2 required an extra part to be added

2010

Phase 1 took me 28 minutes, and phase 2 took 16 minutes. This part was made with just 1 extrusion and 1 extruded cut with fillets. Phase 2 required editing the top profile

2009

Phase 1 took 38 minutes, and phase 2 took 12 minutes. Phase 2 required a simple simulation

2008

Phase 1 took 43 minutes, and phase 2 took 18 minutes. This is the first Model Mania year where the simulation portion was included on the 2D drawings

2007

Phase 1 took 30 minutes, and phase 2 took about 10 minutes. This was a fairly easy part

2006

Phase 1 took 26 minutes, and phase 2 took 6 minutes. Phase 2 was simple with 2 drafts feature

2005

Phase 1 took 20 minutes, and phase 2 took 12 minutes. This part was simple, using extrusions, aloft and revolve cut

2004

Phase 1 took 48 minutes, and phase 2 took 36 minutes. After figuring out the from offset extrude cut it made phase 2 simple

2003

Phase 1 required 60 minutes, and phase 2 took 30 minutes. Phase 2 involved flipping the rib to the other side of the part. I was able to do this without any additional sketches by changing the plane it was drawn on

2002

Phase 1 took about 40 minutes using the Drafts and Shells tools to model the part. Phase 2 took 20 minutes, it was longer because it needed a few different configuration variants of Phase 1

2001

Phase 1 took 92 minutes and required some troubleshooting. Dimension was missing for the rib. Using the video for that particular reference. Phase 2 took about 12 minutes to make the modifications

2000

I completed the design for Stage in 60 minutes, and I finished the modifications for Stage 2 in 10 minutes
