In Rhino 4.0 Essential Training, author Dave Schultze shows
how the 3D NURBS-based modeling tools in Rhino 4.0 are used
to engineer products from toy robots to full-sized aircraft.
This course concentrates on using Rhino 4.0 for industrial
design
and rapid prototyping, with a review of common 3D terminology
using specific examples. Along with a comprehensive exploration
of the Rhino interface, the course includes an introduction to
building 3D objects with Rhino's three primary entities:
the curve, the surface, and the solid.
Exercise files are included with the course.

Topics include:

* Understanding 3D terminology
* Viewing a 3D model in Rhino 4.0
* Manipulating objects with commands
* Creating curves, surfaces, and solids
* Applying transformations to 3D objects
* Creating unique shapes with Boolean operators
* Snapping to objects and planes
* Defining curve and surface degree
* Prototyping a 3D model
