Buy one … I'll scan it! I noticed that they are planning to offer the STL files for sale, too.

Could even mod for fat bikes.

LOL - or I can wait till China knocks em off and sells em for 5$/unit.

I tried google sketchup … did not like, the search goes on. Was going to give 123D a shot, it seems to be pretty popular and also free to use. Will have a good look at the fusion app as well.

I just built this. It's a heavily modified prusa i3, with a custom frame and granite base. Dual extruders to print soluble support material.

That LOL is looking very finite. I wouldn't want to be China right now given the hyperbolic trajectory of this tech.
