A Beginner's Guide to 3D Modeling by Cameron Coward

The rise of enthusiast 3D printing and CNC machining has created a need for 3D CAD modelling skills, but CAD has traditionally been associated with a steep learning curve. With CAD for Beginners, you'll learn the basics of 3D CAD modelling all the way to advanced modelling using Autodesk Fusion 360, the cloud powered 3D CAD/CAM tool. In this practical guide, you'll start by learning the principles of parametric modelling and basic modelling and assembly methods. Then, you'll move into advanced modelling concepts like 3D sketching and splines, helixes and ribs, technical drawing, and rendering.

"The well-organized book provides an easy-to-read experience in taking on the Autodesk Fusion 360 learning curve"
—Kerry Stevenson, Fabbaloo

“[A Beginner's Guide to 3D Modeling] will teach you the basics and then add complexity like more advanced modeling concepts. . . . This book will take you step-by-step to the creation of your own designs.”
—Great Lakes Geek

“A solid introduction to Fusion 360.”
—Amazon Reviewer
