This introductory class is for students who have little or no experience with 3d cad and will teach you how to create your own designs using a free program called Onshape that you will be able to use at home to continue to create designs in 3d that can be used for digital fabrication on 3d printers, laser cutters, CNC machines or plasma cutters etc. At our workshop, our experienced instructor will guide you, step by step, through the process.
This is the prerequisite series for the Advanced CAD Design Series.
