Free Project: Getting Started in Tinkercad

SketchUp has paved the way for new 3D modeling applications, and one that I've recently run across is Tinkercad.  It's a FREE, web-based application that enables you to quickly model objects that can be produced on a 3D printer.

I recently wrote Getting Started in Tinkercad (PDF), a free project, ready for you to download and use. If you have kids home from camp, this is a great activity to keep their brains firing till school starts!

The project uses my usual-step-step method to work through this cute little boat:

 

The Tinkercad team has a similar boat printed out (I believe from a MakerBot):

 

Enjoy!!

Anyone can design anything in 3D! http://www.3dvinci.net/
