This course introduces you to the fundamentals of creating and editing accurate free-form 3-D NURBS models.

Topics Include:

• Rhino Basics: Rhino for windows Interface, screen, menus, toolbars, graphics area, command window, entering commands, navigating around the model, and move objects.
  
  
• Creating Two-dimensional Objects: Drawing lines, freeform curves, modeling aids, model setup, saving your work, layers, and Deleting objects.
  
  
• Precision Modeling: Modeling with coordinates, viewports, modeling in 3D space, object snaps, analysis commands, drawing circles, arcs, ellipses and polygons as well as modeling freeform curves.
  
  
• The Display: Changing the view of your model, panning and zooming, resetting your view.
  
  
• Editing Objects: Fillet, chamfer, move, copy, undo and redo, rotate, mirror, join, scale, array, offset, trim, split, and extend.
  
  
• Point Editing: to display the control points or the edit points of an object so that you can adjust the shape on an object rather than manipulating the whole object at once.
  
  
• Creating Deformable Shapes: Freeform modeling, surface creation, surface rebuilding, control point editing, curve creation (drawing, projecting), splitting surfaces with curves and surfaces, blending between two surfaces, and lighting and rendering.
  
  
• Modeling: with solids, flashlight, pull toy and solid text.
  
  
• Importing and Exporting Models: Importing and exporting Rhino file information, creating mesh objects, making a 2D drawing from a 3D model.
  
  
• We will also cover the following:
• Creating surfaces
• Rendering
• Printing
• Customizing Workspaces and Toolbars
• Rhino Options
• Creating Custom Toolbar Layouts
