I bit the bullet last week and paid $18 for this udemy course on 3D printing design for dummies using the free s/w fusion 360. I'm halfway through and its good. I saw today that it has dropped $4. Better than nothing so not a bad time to learn some new skills.

should I hand in my OzB membership? I figured if i paid i would do the course…..
Good course Fusion 360 is the best free s/w to learn for designing 3d items if that's a bit challenging check out "Tinkercad" at https://www.tinkercad.com
By Autodesk as well, the difference between the two is 360 is parametric
Tinkercad is not.
Meaning?
(See below comment too) thanks
Bought my pensioner Dad a 3D printer for Xmas. He wanted a hobby away from power tools and machinery. He loves it.
I'm wondering if this is something good for him?
F360 is great. There r free videos on the Autodesk website and YouTube to get started. I hope one day they don't start charging for hobbist use.
I reckon the course is great. You follow his step by step instruction to design 10 things from scratch and by doing this you learn all the tricks. I was getting sick of always looking in thingaverse for stuff to print. I have ideas that i want to print so i have to learn the design s/w. For $14 its is a no-brainer IMO.
Too late. Back to $17.99
Somebody who actually paid for and studies an Udemy course! You deserve an award.
