In these video lessons I will show students and professionals the skills needed to prepare clean, manufacturable, and optimized Rhino 3D models to use in full scale physical mock-ups as well as rapid prototyping processes ( 3D printing, CNC milling, laser cutting, and foam modeling).
I will teach first off a hair dryer as a starting model, and show how I typically surface it and get it ready for prototyping. As we progress in the lessons I will show you how I import 2 case models using an IGES files, identify and repair corrupted surfaces and make sure you end up with a watertight volume ( also known as a closed polysurface in Rhino 3D ) before sending it off for prototyping.
You will also be initiated in learning the basic principles of reverse engineering, how you can import an STL file and fix the imported meshes using the Rhino toolbar. I will also share with you on how I prepare a full scale aircraft cabin model in Rhino and the materials I typically use ( foamboards and plywood ) to build a full scale physical mockup. This course serves as a Level 2, meaning it is intended for intermediate level, however users with basic knowledge of the Rhino environment can benefit from it as well.
