Dear Laurens and David,

I am submitting my Birthday Gift Presenter for your review.

I haven't made a video of that robot alone so I am using the video with all birthday robots.

Thank you very much!

Dear Laurens and David,

I am trying to make a digital design for the robot.

Can tell us which design tool is the best for EV3, SPIKE Prime, and Robot Inventor?

Thank you very much!

Antoni

I think Bricklink Studio is the easiest to use, but it tends to be missing parts. Philo has parts packs for the missing SPIKE and MINDSTORMS parts.

For a more advanced editor, I like LDCAD. For example, it can do the wires that Studio can't.

Philo also has a post on the Studio forum somewhere that explains how to take a Studio model, open it in LDCAD, add the wires and then send it back to Studio if you want the best of both worlds.

Hi David, Laurens,

If either of you uses MacOS, could you advise us on the most advanced Lego digital design software for Mac? The ones we've tried so far tend to lack the parts for the latest robotics sets.

Thank you very much!

Unfortunately, Bricksmith hasn't been updated for recent versions of macOS. So LeoCAD is probably the only option. There are also ways to get unofficial parts in all of the programs if there are missing parts.
