I would, but something tells me they won't be accepting my popsicle stick structures or macaroni art as proper entries.  :'(

Those are some nice prizes! Someday there will be a contest to see who can replace a toilet fastest, and I will be a golden god.

Can this be done in AutoCAD2006?  I've only done structural engineering work on AutoCAD so far, in which case I could probably never get this done by then but worth a shot I guess.

It says Revit is required.  I don't know it either but I doesn't seem too hard to pick up.  I HAVE HOPE!  

AutoCAD 2006 and AccuRender are pretty much my main weapons of choice too.

Hmm, so I'd have to buy that just to enter this?  I noticed I can DL it from the Autodesk site but I don't know if it will give me a trial period or not, I'll try later at home.

You can download all of AutoDesk's software for a trial period (30 days I believe).
