Beginner
Welcome to the very first video on Cad Thinkers. This video is a beginner level video of a simple part designed on ZW3D. We will be looking at how to create a file and a part and then we will move on to creating Sketches and solid modelling tools. This is my first video so I apologise in advance for and minor mistakes and mispronunciation of certain words. I hope you enjoy and thanks for watching. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on ZW3D, please visit : https://www.zwsoft.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can also follow Cad Thinkers at: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cadthinkers/ Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/CADThinkers/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CadThinkers Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.pt/cadthinkers/ GrabCad: https://grabcad.com/cad.thinkers-1
