In "Wood" Magazine's June 2001 Issue 133, a stop-motion animation project was created. The model was designed using Solidworks 2016. Simlab Composer 8 Mechanical Edition was used for rendering. Virtualdub edited the frames before they were saved as AVI/X264 and BMP formats. MyMP4BoxGui remuxed the video to MP4 format. Gifs were created using PhotoScape, while IrfanView was utilized to edit renders. The 3D-PDF and SIMLAB files are also animated. The model is available in multiple formats such as Solidworks 2016, Simlab Composer 8, DAE, STEP, IGES, Parasolid, OBJ, 3D-PDF, SketchUp, 3DS, DWF, and FBX.
