Introduction

Onshape is an online enthusiast-centric CAD software that is free for students. It provides us access to CAD tools on the go, i.e. without the hassle of installing big and hefty software. It works on the web and doesn’t require any robust computing requirements as that of gaming PCs. The only important thing is that you MUST have a mouse to work with CAD-related software. Revamped Tutorial Series has been attached, which must be followed religiously to understand the basics of CAD. This knowledge can be directly applied to other professional CAD software, which has a different interface or workflow.

It is expected that the learners must complete these three assignments in CAD on their own and referencing the videos must be last resort. However, when you complete the design, they must use different colours and textures at the end.

You have reached a stage where you must start critical thinking about things from your daily life for progression in CAD modelling.
