Computer Basics - 3D Graphics and Printing

SketchUp is a powerful tool used for the creation of 3D objects and some limited animation.  This class will allow the student to learn about the basic concepts involved in the creation of 3D objects, including lathing, extrusion, Boolean operations, lighting, and creating textures or skins. The objects created in SketchUp can be sent to a 3D printer and made into actual physical objects, including on 3D printers available at the downtown library. Participants should plan to attend all 4 sessions: January 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd.
