Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enter the challenge?
Find a design you like on Pinshape, 3D print it, and share a picture or video of it on social media, making sure you include the info above to make sure it’s a valid entry.
Do I need to submit a Print to Pinshape for my entry to count?
No you don’t, but we strongly encourage it since it helps everyone else see what you’re making and is a great source of feedback for the designer. I mean, you’ll have everything you need to submit a Print anyway, so you might as well!
Can I share the pictures of a design I’ve already printed out?
Yes you can, as long as the shared post happened between when the contest starts and ends, and it meets the criteria, that’s fine with us!
Does it matter if the designs I print are free or paid?
Nope! The cost of the design you print doesn’t have any affect on your entry.
What if I post my picture/video somewhere else?
That’s awesome! We love that you want to share your 3D Print with even more people. We’re totally fine with you sharing it however you like, but only the sharing methods described in this contest will be considered entries into the contest.
When/how will the winner be announced?
The winner will be announced in the week following the end of the contest, in a post on the Pinshape blog. If you’re a winner, you’ll be contacted directly by the Pinshape team.
