I just started using tinkercad and your 9 min video is by far the best tutorial I've seen so far, no silly music beautifully explained and so easy to follow along!! Subbed!!
As an old style (paper and pencil) drafts an I’ve been trying to get to grips with 3D CAD, and I’ve been using Tinkercad for a few months. But kudos to you for the speed and fluidity you have. I’ve learnt more watching this single video than many others, thanks.
Super cool @robertdodd2087! Love to hear it when there is a success. 👏💯 Feel free to reach out if you have more questions. Some of the coolest things I create start with questions from viewers.
I have 0 knowledge about AutoCAD, but I know what it is for. I'm a 3d printer beginner, and I want to learn to design my project so that I'm not taking somebody's design. By watching this, I feel confident that I can accomplish that hehe
That is the exact response I hope for. If you get stuck on your design, feel free to reach out. One of the amazing things about Tinkercad is the ability to collaborate on a design.
I have been STRUGGLING to produce something similar. What an amazing tutorial and I can NOW FINALLY make the adapters I have been wanting! Thank you so very much!!!!
I came to this video to learn how to make this literal vent adapter for a inside AC unit. It was a garage sale find but they didn't have the equipment to hook up to the window. 300-400 dollar unit they thought was junk, sold for 45$ and all it needs is a 3in vent outside lol. Will be duplicating and printing my own before too long :D
I had previously used Solidworks but chose to use TinkerCad because of the very simple approach. I made filament prints for work because big and blocky were okay. But I have been able to design very intricate scale model railway models for resin printing and I am astounded at the level of detail that is captured in TinkerCad. Thank you for this tutorial!
Subscribed. Holy hell this was excellent. I just got into 3D Printing for D&D recently but I really want to learn how to print more practical things and this was outstanding. I've been a corporate Learning and Development professional for upwards of a decade and I can confidently say you're an excellent teacher. Thank you, HL!
New here today. Ordered a 3d printer for my grandson and was looking for ideas to learn 3d projects. Thank YOU for this. Will be watching many more videos.
Glad it was helpful! I whipped up a Day 1 Playlist if you are interested. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_ Simple and fun to make sure you have the basics before trying to print something.
I have used solidworks and even fusion 360, tinkerCad is limited in a way but your video makes it seem easy and doable, thank you. I see now the limit comes by our own imagination. Great video.
Just got into 3D printing and I've been looking for software to make my own parts. I've been trying to wade through Blender, but it's giving me a serious headache, even with the tutorials I've seen online. TinkerCAD looks a little more intuitive. Probably not quite as feature rich as something like Blender, but I think I chose poorly when I decided to start there. But, it was free, so there's that. Enjoyed this video. I'll have to look through your channel to see if there are more TinkerCAD tutorials, and maybe I'll give it a go myself.
Welcome aboard and thanks for the kind words. Any lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_ They are just fun creations, but I fill them with skills you need to make your own stuff later. Feel free to reach out if you have questions.
I really appreciate this video. I've been watching dozens of videos to learn tips. Your breakdown was by far the best and the include keyboard button reference was very helpful. Keep up the great work!
Now that you mention it, I'm stuck on a similar file for dust collection. Is it possible to email you? I'm not x-ing twittering or socialing. Thanks I'd like to send a pic of my problem@@HLModTech
Thank you very much for making this video. This is the kind of thing I needed to make for my woodworking workshop, but I didn't know how to do it and was looking for a video like this. Again, thank you and I also subscribed to your channel. You probably have other videos that I have been looking for as well. Also nice to see that you will show someone how to make something that they are trying to make. Awesome work my friend.
Hey! Just wanna say a BIG THANK YOU to you! Thank you for the best tutorial and it helped me understood how things and how to cut shape!

@@HLModTech Sweet. I did my first sample and there is no hic-cups on the first projects. I looks forwards to see a few more video tutorials of your. I am very pleased with my first one. Thank you.
This video was just what I needed to get startet, just got a 3d printer today. I made a living working in Autocad more than 25 years ago - but man, CAD is a different story today, haha :-) Thanks for getting me going.
New sub, Only watched this 1 video, having just started with 3d design & printing, and your way of explaining etc made it really easy and instand sub, great job, thanks.
I'm new to tinkercad I was wondering if you could show or if you already have a video that you can point me to how to put pointed gears in the end of a cylinder thanks in advance looking forward for your response

Excellent video for learning Tinkercad. I use Fusion 360, but my grandson wants to learn to design things too. I really was not sure where to start with Tinkercad until I saw this video, so thank you!. I also saw your video on creating a youth login, which will be very handy. I have subscribed to your channel so I can learn more. When my grandson is ready, I will have him subscribe also.
@@HLModTech Thank you! This all started when he (7 yr old) wanted to make something to go with an existing wood toy from Home Depot. I showed him how we need to first measure the existing toy using a digital calipers. The next morning he had everything measured and drawn on paper by the time I got up! I don't know where this will go, but I will try to keep challenging him. So we may need your creation ideas!
I just discovered Tinkercad after struggling to create 3D designs in Sketchup. This video is so clear and the instructions easy to follow. Now I can make some adapters for my tools dust extractors. Thank you.
This is a great video. I have two changes to this exact item but don't know how to do it. How do I make the base into an arc so that I can attach it to the side of a bucket? How do I rotate or slant the tube portion of this so when I connect an inlet hose to the bucket, it creates a centrifuge to rotate the dust on the way in from the vacuum...(bucket dust collector attachment is what I'm trying to make). Any help you can provide would be great. Thank you.
Thank you for the kudos. If you are willing, shoot me some images of the setup. You can reach me at hlmodtech gmail. It will help me give a better strategy for creating your part.
This is one of the best videos, it shows how to do so many things in one video, I wasn't aware of the auto centering, I wasn't aware you could choose wall thickness, I would do a solid object and copy and paste and make the copy a lil smaller and turn it into a hole for a cylinder, but how do I get a true round object, seems all my round edges become flat the bigger the cylinder I make,
Thanks for the kind words. The main Tinkercad cylinder will smooth out a bit when you slide the sides up to 64. I do it pretty quickly in this video. ruclips.net/video/CrEn9LD01gM/видео.html Thanks again for watching and feel free to reach out if you have questions.
@@HLModTech I know you are an 8th grade teacher but I will be 59 this year and was looking for easy to follow tutorials to learn this remarkable software. I have 3d printed for 5 years and never learned tinkercad to do much. I can now make personal things other than using other peoples models. I wish I had been able to learn this in school when I was young.
@@BriansModelTrains Thanks Brian. Always makes my day when I hear that learning is going on. 💯👍 If you ever have request do not hesitate to drop me a line.
Makes my day to hear that @chrishewlet5471 👍 Thinking back, it was user suggested... which is one of my favorite ways to create content. Thanks for the note!
@@HLModTech That was some excellent suggestion back then. This video shows anyone out there how to fab ub anything you could possibly need in just a few minutes.
Sure was! Thinking back, I made that in a hotel room on vacation. Is it good karma that my most popular video was created when I should have been chilling. 🤔
@@HLModTech Haha, I suppose so. It does seem like you have put a ton of work in your channel, you've got videos to cover pretty much anything. For me this one video is what has made me dust off my printers again and now I'll start designing some much needed parts. I bought my first 3D printer (Anet A8) back in 2016, added an Ultimaker 6 months later and an SLA printer after that. They have all been collecting dust in a shed since I have been busy with other interests. But it's time to blow new life into them. Thanks again.
It is possible, but I do not have a hinge tutorial yet. It is really just a matter of having gaps in place while you print. This silly fidget spinner is a good intro for creating print in place designs. ruclips.net/video/V5elcMPL9Lo/видео.html
Im getting into 3d printing and tried fusion 360....what a mess to learn. I was expecting something more like this. Looks so much more intuitive. Thanks for the vid
Tinkercad does not have that feature. Some shapes have their own bevel, but there is no way to "soften" something you have grouped. The programs that do have that feature cost $$$ and have a bit of a learning curve.
For 3D printing it is nice to have a flat base. We had just beveled all the corners... so the bottom would have had a slight curve. I prefer totally flat. That step cut the bottom flat. Then pressing the letter D dropped it to the workplane.
Wow - just found your channel after getting my first 3d printer and I learned so much. Thank you! Is there a place I could download this design that you made?
Welcome aboard. There is not a place to download it, but that vid shows you how to make in about 10 minutes. That way it will fit what you really are using it for. Since you are just starting out, lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_
This is how I solve it. ruclips.net/video/yvtGEw4TwWU/видео.html This is a female thread... If you needed male I would still search Thingiverse for the thread and work from there. There is a thread tool in Tinkercad, but I have had more success thix way.
I worked with this company once. They were very professional. Took me a while to get my design up to the standards they needed, but the finished products were sharp. ruclips.net/video/2G1ivP2uxis/видео.html
I'd have suggest caliper measurements of the screw holes and distance from the end lol cause yours are in 2 seperate places but the rest perfect .. Measure twice reprint only 10x that way
I would make the rectangle 1/2 inch... bevel that and cut it in half with a hold block that is 1/4 thick. When grouped you will have a flat bottom and a total of 1/4" of material.
Thank you. I think the biggest difference between copy & paste and duplicate is the number of steps... Duplicate is super cool in that you can memorize steps and make magic stuff. Check this out. ruclips.net/video/ivOl3Go7cVg/видео.html
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks Do's Don't. 💯👍 With a little practice you make some really cool stuff. You can also just have fun with it. ruclips.net/video/_XIHUUmHWLE/видео.html
Awesome tutorial!! I haven't checked your others but my only request is you slow down a bit.... maybe a smidge more explanation. I understand you are trying to get to the point and not make an hour video, but I loved learning it was just a little hard. I will be checking out your other content and again I loved the video!!!!
Thanks for the kudos. =-) Sorry about the speed... Any lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_ They will be a bit slower. If there is a specific design request... let me know. Some of the coolest things I create start with questions from viewers.
Hi Brian. I'm hoping you can help me with this one as it's driving me nuts! I've created a model that has several different angled faces and want to 'lay' the whole model down onto the workplane on the model's largest face. Is there any way of SETTING the workplane to any of object's various faces and locking it to it? This would obviously allow me to start printing it from that face and also allow me to save it in that orientation. I can obviously align it with the rotation method but it's not going to be accurate. Anyway, Here's hoping! Thanks very much
Sorry I did not see this earlier. This is a fun lesson about the workplane if you are ever just interested in making something funny. ruclips.net/video/cm8zl15LVlY/видео.html
@@HLModTech thanks for the reply and the link. I've just watched it and learnt loads....as I'm new to Tinkercad I'm trying to run before I can walk and so you are pointing out lots of routines that I would never had accidentally discovered for myself (simple example - cntrl and up arrow). It's obvious that Tinkercad isn't as 'sophisticated' as other bespoke software but, for me anyway, it is allowing me to slowly start my 3d printing journey as I'm not looking for complicated modelling. Thank you so much for the help! 👍🏴
Sweet! It is fun when you start making progress. I loved watching the improvement in my students as they started knocking out a few projects. I try to sneak all those shortcuts and nudges in there... Having fun and gaining the skills is a win win. What 3D printer do you have?
Great instructional video! A question regarding outer wall thickness: I designed in Tinkercad and printed, essentially, a funnel to replace the original poor flowing one on my aquarium gravel vacuum tube. It's sort of 3 pieces grouped together. I made the walls 2mm thick for strength and made them 2mm in the slicer. Yet the first one, when I dropped it, it came apart at the joins. I ended up putting 4mm rings at the joins to ensure that didn't happen again. Is 2mm about right? Is it common for such things to be weak at the joints? I used PETG - 235' nozzle, bed 70'
Thank you. The 2mm in the slicer will not grow your model to achieve that thickness. What it does it take a part that is solid in your design and print it with 2mm walls. A great question. I think I ought to make a video about it. Thanks for the nudge. Adding the rings in those areas is pretty slick. It is like adding a fillet for strength. 👍 Thanks again for the reaching out.
Hi,, I have a question; what do I do to make an object scalable? What I mean is if I want to design something that I want to make in different scales , do I draw or design it full size or do I have to do separate drawings in each scale?
I would make the design for the first scale. Then make a copy of the project and simple shift stretch the copy to fit the 2nd scale. This video has a similar idea I believe. ruclips.net/video/16kXsFwqpHs/видео.html
awesome video man! you helped me a lot designing my first thing in cad. i have a question though im working on something that needs precise holes for mounting a light into. its a simple design just a flat square with 4 holes in each corners for screws and a large circular hole in the center for the wires to come through it but i need 2 holes on each side of the larger hole perfectly spaced so the light will mount to it.
Thanks for the kudos! Sounds like the ruler tool is what will assist you most. I usually skip it and use nudge. As a math teacher I just do the math for the location... I will see if I can whip up a video to add precise holes this morning.
@@HLModTech wow thanks man! I'm looking forward to seeing it. Your how to videos are the best I've seen on tinkercad I've learned more from a few of your videos that I have from 30+ minute long videos from others.
Thanks! I am always trying to squeeze as much in the shortest time possible. Teaching middle schoolers has me always trying to hit the sweet spot for their attention spans. =)

Excellent video for learning Tinkercad. I use Fusion 360, but my grandson wants to learn to design things too. I really was not sure where to start with Tinkercad until I saw this video, so thank you!. I also saw your video on creating a youth login, which will be very handy. I have subscribed to your channel so I can learn more. When my grandson is ready, I will have him subscribe also.
Makes my day to hear that. I have a ton of fun using Tinkercad. Feel free to reach out if you are hunting for ideas for the youngsters creations. =)
@@HLModTech Thank you! This all started when he (7 yr old) wanted to make something to go with an existing wood toy from Home Depot. I showed him how we need to first measure the existing toy using a digital calipers. The next morning he had everything measured and drawn on paper by the time I got up! I don't know where this will go, but I will try to keep challenging him. So we may need your creation ideas!
I believe Tinkercad allows designing for fun as much as functionality. =) Check out this jet. ruclips.net/video/BXvPXSbEuMU/видео.html
awesome video. thankyou!
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks @gateaccess818. 💯👍
I just discovered Tinkercad after struggling to create 3D designs in Sketchup. This video is so clear and the instructions easy to follow. Now I can make some adapters for my tools dust extractors. Thank you.
Happy to help. Keep me posted if you’re ever stock. Some of my coolest tutorials are created from user suggestions. 💯👍
nailed it. thanks!
Fantastic. Glad you’re successful and thank you so much for taking time to shoot me a note.
Hello, any idea, how to make an eccentric circular reduction for example kitchen hood? Centric is easy, but eccentric? Still trying...
Let me do some looking. If you shoot me a email, I can share a project with you. hlmodtech gmail.
This is a great video. I have two changes to this exact item but don't know how to do it. How do I make the base into an arc so that I can attach it to the side of a bucket? How do I rotate or slant the tube portion of this so when I connect an inlet hose to the bucket, it creates a centrifuge to rotate the dust on the way in from the vacuum...(bucket dust collector attachment is what I'm trying to make). Any help you can provide would be great. Thank you.
Thank you for the kudos. If you are willing, shoot me some images of the setup. You can reach me at hlmodtech gmail. It will help me give a better strategy for creating your part.
This is one of the best videos, it shows how to do so many things in one video, I wasn't aware of the auto centering, I wasn't aware you could choose wall thickness, I would do a solid object and copy and paste and make the copy a lil smaller and turn it into a hole for a cylinder, but how do I get a true round object, seems all my round edges become flat the bigger the cylinder I make,
Thanks for the kind words. The main Tinkercad cylinder will smooth out a bit when you slide the sides up to 64. I do it pretty quickly in this video. ruclips.net/video/CrEn9LD01gM/видео.html Thanks again for watching and feel free to reach out if you have questions.
Self-taught myself Tinkercad last week, using the basic tutorials That was very helpful. Thankyou!!
Awesome! Thanks for the visit. 👍🔥
I love tinkercad, I've done a lot in it. I do lack knowledge of these keyboard shortcuts though.
Thanks @cdlord80 for the feedback! 👍 The shortcuts are a favorite of mine. Designing with 2 hands makes creation so much more efficient.
Great tutorial - thank you very much!
Thanks! Glad it was useful. 👍
@@HLModTech I know you are an 8th grade teacher but I will be 59 this year and was looking for easy to follow tutorials to learn this remarkable software. I have 3d printed for 5 years and never learned tinkercad to do much. I can now make personal things other than using other peoples models. I wish I had been able to learn this in school when I was young.
@@BriansModelTrains Thanks Brian. Always makes my day when I hear that learning is going on. 💯👍 If you ever have request do not hesitate to drop me a line.
This is easier for me than fusion 360 😂😂😂😂 thank you friend 🙌🏾
100% agree! Thanks for the note. I have a blast with Tinkercad. This fun sign has been really popular lately. ruclips.net/video/jx_mDNeCslM/видео.html
This is exactly what I was looking for! It's like you read my mind a couple of years ago! 😂
Makes my day to hear that @chrishewlet5471 👍 Thinking back, it was user suggested... which is one of my favorite ways to create content. Thanks for the note!
@@HLModTech That was some excellent suggestion back then. This video shows anyone out there how to fab ub anything you could possibly need in just a few minutes.
Sure was! Thinking back, I made that in a hotel room on vacation. Is it good karma that my most popular video was created when I should have been chilling. 🤔
@@HLModTech Haha, I suppose so. It does seem like you have put a ton of work in your channel, you've got videos to cover pretty much anything. For me this one video is what has made me dust off my printers again and now I'll start designing some much needed parts. I bought my first 3D printer (Anet A8) back in 2016, added an Ultimaker 6 months later and an SLA printer after that. They have all been collecting dust in a shed since I have been busy with other interests. But it's time to blow new life into them. Thanks again.
Can you do mechanical parts, like hinge joints? Thanks!
It is possible, but I do not have a hinge tutorial yet. It is really just a matter of having gaps in place while you print. This silly fidget spinner is a good intro for creating print in place designs. ruclips.net/video/V5elcMPL9Lo/видео.html
This has been so helpful! Thank you so much for everything you do!
Perfect way to start my day. Thank you. 💯👍
yoo thanks man! I gotta make a house for my french project.
I have several types of house tutorials. Did you track one down?
@@HLModTech Yup!
Well done. Feel free to reach out if you have questions.
Im getting into 3d printing and tried fusion 360....what a mess to learn. I was expecting something more like this. Looks so much more intuitive. Thanks for the vid
Awesome Apocraphon tripp! If you ever have questions, let me know. 👍
Fusion 360 and TinkerCAD are owned by the same company and the controls are effectively the same, but Fusion360 is a much more powerful tool
great video thanks for sharing
My pleasure! Thanks for the note. 💯👍
great video
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks @mrashford7927. 💯👍
Mind blown!
Awesome PrintedVisionz3D! I appreciate the feedback 😊
is there any options to bevel a part once you have it all grouped together just so soften the edges? thanks for the great videos!
Tinkercad does not have that feature. Some shapes have their own bevel, but there is no way to "soften" something you have grouped. The programs that do have that feature cost $$$ and have a bit of a learning curve.
@@HLModTech thanks for your reply
1:30 "now, I don't want the underneath round...." I don't understand this statement nor why you did the next step. Please elaborate.
For 3D printing it is nice to have a flat base. We had just beveled all the corners... so the bottom would have had a slight curve. I prefer totally flat. That step cut the bottom flat. Then pressing the letter D dropped it to the workplane.
Wow - just found your channel after getting my first 3d printer and I learned so much. Thank you! Is there a place I could download this design that you made?
Welcome aboard. There is not a place to download it, but that vid shows you how to make in about 10 minutes. That way it will fit what you really are using it for. Since you are just starting out, lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_
How do we add a threaded plastic pipe end. How is the threaded part done ?
This is how I solve it. ruclips.net/video/yvtGEw4TwWU/видео.html This is a female thread... If you needed male I would still search Thingiverse for the thread and work from there. There is a thread tool in Tinkercad, but I have had more success thix way.
@@HLModTech thank you
Do you know of any online service that 3d prints and sends product. ? Contemplating if it's worthwhile doing myself if I need in bulk
I worked with this company once. They were very professional. Took me a while to get my design up to the standards they needed, but the finished products were sharp. ruclips.net/video/2G1ivP2uxis/видео.html
I'd have suggest caliper measurements of the screw holes and distance from the end lol cause yours are in 2 seperate places but the rest perfect .. Measure twice reprint only 10x that way
Good eye! I think I heard that from my shop teacher back in the day as well. 😜
How do you make a beveled edge on a rectangle that is 1/4" thick?
I would make the rectangle 1/2 inch... bevel that and cut it in half with a hold block that is 1/4 thick. When grouped you will have a flat bottom and a total of 1/4" of material.
can you show us how to design propeller for an EDF ducted unit?
Check out the rotor on this copter. You may be able to make that do what you want. ruclips.net/video/AlW0REL0qXY/видео.html
Note, you do have to click the new shape generator, then choose all to find it.
This video shows the sweet Google Jamboard that list all the custom shapes too. ruclips.net/video/fQGamhxLiTw/видео.html
Great video, I hope this is a intake not a exhaust,
You make that look so easy !
What the difference between duplicate and copy paste?
Thank you. I think the biggest difference between copy & paste and duplicate is the number of steps... Duplicate is super cool in that you can memorize steps and make magic stuff. Check this out. ruclips.net/video/ivOl3Go7cVg/видео.html
I just finished telling someone how horrible tinkercad is, you make it seem good
Makes my day to hear that! Thanks Do's Don't. 💯👍 With a little practice you make some really cool stuff. You can also just have fun with it. ruclips.net/video/_XIHUUmHWLE/видео.html
Mod tech how do you make gears??? ⚙️ I’m interested to know
For fun, or accurate for 3D printing?
Thank you
My pleasure Roberto Hernandez. Thank you for the feedback! 👍💯
Awesome tutorial!! I haven't checked your others but my only request is you slow down a bit.... maybe a smidge more explanation. I understand you are trying to get to the point and not make an hour video, but I loved learning it was just a little hard. I will be checking out your other content and again I loved the video!!!!
Thanks for the kudos. =-) Sorry about the speed... Any lessons in this playlist are great for brand-new Tinkercad users. ruclips.net/p/PLRXLS33csRK7qasevs577eQMloptAVVm_ They will be a bit slower. If there is a specific design request... let me know. Some of the coolest things I create start with questions from viewers.
Hi Brian. I'm hoping you can help me with this one as it's driving me nuts! I've created a model that has several different angled faces and want to 'lay' the whole model down onto the workplane on the model's largest face. Is there any way of SETTING the workplane to any of object's various faces and locking it to it? This would obviously allow me to start printing it from that face and also allow me to save it in that orientation. I can obviously align it with the rotation method but it's not going to be accurate. Anyway, Here's hoping! Thanks very much
I've just cracked it! Not very intuitive to do but managed it......👍
Sorry I did not see this earlier. This is a fun lesson about the workplane if you are ever just interested in making something funny. ruclips.net/video/cm8zl15LVlY/видео.html
Nice work!
@@HLModTech thanks for the reply and the link. I've just watched it and learnt loads....as I'm new to Tinkercad I'm trying to run before I can walk and so you are pointing out lots of routines that I would never had accidentally discovered for myself (simple example - cntrl and up arrow). It's obvious that Tinkercad isn't as 'sophisticated' as other bespoke software but, for me anyway, it is allowing me to slowly start my 3d printing journey as I'm not looking for complicated modelling. Thank you so much for the help! 👍🏴
Sweet! It is fun when you start making progress. I loved watching the improvement in my students as they started knocking out a few projects. I try to sneak all those shortcuts and nudges in there... Having fun and gaining the skills is a win win. What 3D printer do you have?
Great instructional video! A question regarding outer wall thickness: I designed in Tinkercad and printed, essentially, a funnel to replace the original poor flowing one on my aquarium gravel vacuum tube. It's sort of 3 pieces grouped together. I made the walls 2mm thick for strength and made them 2mm in the slicer. Yet the first one, when I dropped it, it came apart at the joins. I ended up putting 4mm rings at the joins to ensure that didn't happen again. Is 2mm about right? Is it common for such things to be weak at the joints? I used PETG - 235' nozzle, bed 70'
Thank you. The 2mm in the slicer will not grow your model to achieve that thickness. What it does it take a part that is solid in your design and print it with 2mm walls. A great question. I think I ought to make a video about it. Thanks for the nudge. Adding the rings in those areas is pretty slick. It is like adding a fillet for strength. 👍 Thanks again for the reaching out.
Hi,, I have a question; what do I do to make an object scalable? What I mean is if I want to design something that I want to make in different scales , do I draw or design it full size or do I have to do separate drawings in each scale?
I would make the design for the first scale. Then make a copy of the project and simple shift stretch the copy to fit the 2nd scale. This video has a similar idea I believe. ruclips.net/video/16kXsFwqpHs/видео.html
awesome video man! you helped me a lot designing my first thing in cad. i have a question though im working on something that needs precise holes for mounting a light into. its a simple design just a flat square with 4 holes in each corners for screws and a large circular hole in the center for the wires to come through it but i need 2 holes on each side of the larger hole perfectly spaced so the light will mount to it.
Thanks for the kudos! Sounds like the ruler tool is what will assist you most. I usually skip it and use nudge. As a math teacher I just do the math for the location... I will see if I can whip up a video to add precise holes this morning.
@@HLModTech wow thanks man! I'm looking forward to seeing it. Your how to videos are the best I've seen on tinkercad I've learned more from a few of your videos that I have from 30+ minute long videos from others.
Thanks! I am always trying to squeeze as much in the shortest time possible. Teaching middle schoolers has me always trying to hit the sweet spot for their attention spans. =)
I had an idea for a 3D project, thank you for your tutorial, and now have it done. I don't know anyone with a 3D printer. can you help?
Shoot me a share link and I can take a look at the project. I usually only print small stuff though. ruclips.net/video/XeDQjhRK8lg/видео.html
5:30 lets do a line and see if you like that.......... I think theyll like it. quality shtuff.
lol. =) Good focus to hear that. 👍
