CAD for Beginners - 2D Drafting and 3D Modeling Basics #1008518

CAD for Beginners is a complete, no-nonsense guide to computer-aided design. It skips the marketing tours and gets straight to work — sketching, constraints, extrusions, revolves, sweeps, lofts, booleans, patterns, assemblies, drawings, tolerances, and design for manufacturing. It covers the software landscape (Fusion 360, Onshape, FreeCAD, SolidWorks, Rhino) and the manufacturing processes your designs will feed into (3D printing, CNC, laser cutting, sheet metal). Every chapter is dense with technique, workflow, and the reasoning behind design decisions. By the end, you will not just model parts. You will design products.
