Blender - Basics and Mesh Modeling

This is a beginners course for Blender, a free, 3D, open-source program which is superb for a variety of uses including Mesh modeling (organic shapes), scuplting, animation, rendering, simulation, video editing and more!

We will cover the basics - with an eye on using Inscape to create basic 3D models for 3D printing - with some rendering and animation.

I MPORTANT - Attendees are required to:

• Bring their own laptop
• Should have a mouse with a mouse wheel (no trackpads)
• Blender 4.0 (or later) installed ahead of class (and make sure it works!)

(If you do not have a laptop, one can be provided for you for the class - but you must arrange this ahead of time with the instructor).

Blender can be downloaded for free for a variety of platforms and operating systems at:

I f you have problems with download or installation, please reach out ahead of the class to resolve.
