"Construction worker" required

Could anybody build us a scale model of the Sparkfun building in Sketchup?? One that anybody could drop onto their own bit of Google earth?

No I'm not going to tell you why.

But I might try and lean on Chris to generate a prize for the best one ;-)

It won't take any of you many seconds to guess why we might want a model!!!

Oh and DIYdrones is an equal opportunities employer, submissions from Red Indians, Cops and that biker dude may also be considered.

Gary, I think model of Sparkfun's building surrounding vegetation , especially trees, would be useful as well :)

I understand modelling of water would be pretty cool as well.

you could melt blue sugar, and pour it onto somewhat crinkled aluminum foil to give it a yummy watery look :P I've been watching too much food channel

Yes, the rover guys are definitely going to be plumbing the depths of the stream next door. We, meanwhile, risk hitting and invariably becoming tangled in anything too high to reach.

No time to build a model but if you want some current exterior pictures I'll be going by this week to pick up an order.......

Thanks Doug, that would be great, I'm sure somebody here has the skill to build in Sketchup, I would give it a go but it would look horrid I'm sure!

It will make the next T3 contest look more pleasing ;-)
