• Need advice on Arduino projects and programming

  In addition to the other great suggestions here I wanted to point out that you can practice and learn a lot for free using an online simulator such as wokwi.com and tinkercad.com (among others)! And you don't have to buy an Arduino or any parts to get started! Source: 5 months ago

• Arduino calender clock project

  And you can prototype all of this first to get it working for free using an online simulator at sites like wokwi.com or tinkercad.com! Source: 5 months ago

• I’m not a mechanic, but I just rolled these guys out of my shop for a cat show I was vending at.

  Hit up tinkercad.com and you can start making things right away. My first design was there and it probably took 5 minutes for the prototype, then 15 minutes to tweak measurements. Really easy (and free) to dive in by doing. Once you nail that, you can get Fusion360 (also free for personal use) or a number of others. Source: 10 months ago

• Anyone know where I can find an STL for record player Stitch?

  When it comes to somewhat simple designs like this, I use tinkercad.com - it's a realllly basic drawing CAD web interface and you can make some pretty great stuff with it with a little creativity. Source: 11 months ago

• Brand new: what do I do?

  But if you want to start right now without buying anything go to tinkercad.com and create an account. You can create circuits and put code in there It's probably best to mess around there first anyway while you get used to resistors etc so you don't blow anything. Source: 12 months ago

• How can i convert 3d surfaces like wings or rounded fuselage features into 2d sketches in free Fusion360? Here's an image from NumaVIG's website, i'd like to create cutting templates like this for my projects but i can't figure out how to do it...

  Same as mesh, use Pepakura to unfold. Source: 11 months ago

• how to export all the sides for paper printing?

  Convert to mesh and use Pepakura to unfold it and add tabs etc. Source: about 1 year ago

• Unfolder for Mac – a 3D modelcreating papercraft

  There is the commercial Pepakura Designer[1] for Windows since the 90's (I think). The mother/father of all desktop papercraft unfolding apps. Then there is a new free one, Papercraft[2], written in Rust, that will probably build on all major paltforms. Do not confuse with the STL-based papercraft (lower case p) someone else mentioned[3].

• Other resources like emplatemaker.nl?

  Pepakura is basic software designed to unroll 3D models for papercraft purposes. Lets you take any 3D model, flatten it, and add tabs with a very reasonable learning curve. Opens up a world of possibilities. Source: about 1 year ago

• Quick and dirty parts boxes

  An easy program 100% focused on unrolling 3d models (for papercraft purposes) is Pepakura, great place to start. Source: over 1 year ago
