To get the best out of 3D printing, it helps if you can design your own parts. In this tutorial series, we will learn to use a free 3D CAD program to do just that.
In this episode, I demonstrate two projects with geometry that needs to be spot on. Rather than design and print over and over until the fit is perfect, I demonstrate purposely creating pas with too much clearance that can be bolted into the perfect place once in position.
