Description
In this course, you will learn:
- how to build parts and assemblies and document them in a way that helps others understand how your designs can be manufactured.
- how to create a sketch and turn it into a 3D part with the Extrude, Revolve, and Loft tools.
- how to combine multiple parts into an assembly to test the interactions—before you spend time and money on manufacturing.
