Class Goals:

Participants in this class will learn how to think and design in 3D! With the help of our instructor, participants will be introduced to V-Carve, navigating a 3D workspace and utilizing a variety of modelling tools to design a projects for fabrication. Learning the underlying thought process of how a physical shape can be manufactured will be what participants use to drive their design process. By the end of the class, everyone will have a basic understanding of how to use the software to design a project for fabrication and can use the resulting files in our other classes;laser cutting, CNC milling, 3D printing.
