I’ve been writing these tutorials on making an object in popular 3D modeling programs for a while now, and each week I’ve put out a call for what software I should do next. There is one constant in ...

Parametric modeling is a method in 3D design where objects are created with parameters and constraints that define their geometry and relationships. Unlike traditional modeling, where shapes are ...

There are various CAD challenges out there that come with bragging rights. Some, like the Certified Solid Works Professional Exam (CWSP) might actually look good on a resume. [Deltahedra] is ...

Using the computer to design objects by modeling their components with real-world behaviors and attributes. Typically specialized for either mechanical design or building design, a parametric modeler ...

Freedom to build what you want FreeCAD is an open-source parametric 3D modeler made primarily to design real-life objects of any size. Parametric modeling allows you to easily modify your design by ...

STL-files are widely used in 3D printing, but are hardly suitable for subsequent editing. They do not contain any parametric information, but consist of a large number of triangular surfaces. However, ...
