    Welcome: PVNet is an accredited nonprofit 501(c)(3) charitable organization teaching STEM subjects to middle - college grade students. This workshop will change your life!! Design a T-Rex and a Rocket and take them home! What Will You Learn? =============== Students will learn how to use Autodesk Fusion 360 at a basic level to create their own projects, along with class projects, which can then be 3D printed. During the class we will design & 3D print 2 of your models. Parents or guardians are also welcome to assist their child during the course. By the end of the course, students will be able to: ================================== 1) Create 2D sketches and use sketches to draw lines, rectangles, circles, and other 2D shapes. 2) Use the 3D extruding tool to turn their two-dimensional sketch into a 3D solid. 3) Use the 3D revolve tool to revolve a 2D sketch about an axis of revolution to produce a 3D solid. 4) Use the 2D and 3D Rectangular and Circular Pattern tools to repeat 2D and 3D features along a line or a circular axis. 5) Have a basic understanding on how 3D printers work (the instructor will take care of the 3D printing process). REQUIREMENTS =============== Each student needs to bring a laptop. The class will be held over two Saturdays with each session lasting 2 hours. Students should arrive with Fusion 360 for personal use already loaded on their laptop. Fusion 360 for personal use is a limited free version that includes basic functionality and can be renewed on an annual basis.
