Abstract

In this chapter, you’ll design two models. The first model you will design is a chess pawn where you will learn the techniques of modeling objects with curved surfaces for 3D printing. In the second half of the chapter, you’ll switch gears and learn how to design a sundial. By designing the sundial, you will learn how to use groups, components, and shadow settings when developing and testing the model.
