Teaching Tech | Selecting a free 3D CAD option - 3D design for 3D printing pt1 @TeachingTech | Uploaded 2 years ago | Updated 2 days ago
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.
Following a poll testing the waters for this series, and after carefully reading the feedback in the comments of that poll, I have selected Onshape. It’s impossible to please everyone but I think this choice will please the vast majority and allow them to achieve their goals.
This video was a little longer than anticipated, and future instalments will be concise and focussed on learning specific features to design a specific part.
