Nope, not yet anyway...

But here is something fun, not puffy sadly until my Son can get a 3D 
version somewhat usable to create one. Or may be he will try to do 
something, I can't say for sure.


Here, however he did his first version for fun and testing of the top 
portion of the 4.2 T-Shirt OpenBSD logo in Lego, and you can see what it 
looks like here as well as the complete parts list needed to built it.


http://openbsdsupport.org/lego/

Kind of fun to see it if you asked me. (;

He is working now on the PDF manual on how to put all of the pieces 
together and will be adding it when finish. But for now, you can see 
what it looks like. The parts are all available, but not in one store so 
far. We need to order them form a few different places to get all needed 
to do this, but they sure are available.


I guess it's never to early to get young mind turn on to OpenBSD! (;

Best,

Daniel

PS: Still would be very much appreciated if some 3D, or somewhat like it 
of Puffy is available somewhere to start with.

OT: Wireframe Puffy 3D model for Lego's

2008-03-09 Thread Daniel Ouellet

Hi,

Sorry about this off topic request. My Sun keep asking me to get a 
Wireframe Puffy 3D model, or CAD file, or Vector version of the design 
if that even exists somewhere.


He really love the Wireframe Puffy and want to make a Lego version of it 
and make a packages of it to for some of his friend's Birthday's.


So, my question is, if anyone have an 3D model, of this great artwork, 
or better yet a CAD version, or vector based design, or what ever that 
he might be able to use to get the proportion right of the Wireframe 
Puffy and be able to make his Lego Puffy fish of out it.


He is a fan of Lego as far back as 3 year's old and even sense, plus 
over the last three years, he slowly discover OpenBSD , run it on his 
old iMAC and even run if now on hos Sun X1 server and really love puffy.


Anyone could may be make the dream come true someplace?

I don't think it exists as I can't find one, just I though that as a 
last chance, may be someone on the list knows or have something usable.


He even said he would send one Lego model to Theo if he can make one 
that is somewhat nice and obviously if Theo might like to get Lego 
Wireframe Puffy. (;


Many thanks,

Daniel
