Learn 3D tools, solid modeling, modifying techniques, materials, views, and printing through hands-on AutoCAD projects.
What you'll learn
✓ Convert 2D geometry into 3D forms using Extrude, Presspull, Sweep, and Loft.
✓ Organize 3D projects using layers, UCS manipulation, and coordinate controls.
✓ Create basic 3D models using AutoCAD solid, surface, and mesh tools.
✓ Modify 3D objects using editing tools such as Union, Subtract, Fillet, and Chamfer.
✓ Apply and edit materials to enhance visual quality and create realistic renderings.
✓ Generate clean, professional 2D views directly from your 3D designs.
✓ Prepare 3D drawings for printing, including layout setup and viewport configuration.
Requirements
● Basic familiarity with AutoCAD 2D
● AutoCAD any version isinstalled on your computer (student or commercial version)
● A Windows computer (AutoCAD 3D tools are not fully supported on Mac).
● A three-button mouse for smooth 3D navigation (recommended).
● Two monitors are recommended-one for watching the lecture and one for following along in AutoCAD.
● Willingness to learn through hands-on practice and follow step-by-step exercises.
Description
Are you ready to move beyond 2D drafting and confidently model in 3D using AutoCAD?
AutoCAD 3D Essentials is a step-by-step, beginner-friendly course designed to help you master AutoCAD's powerful 3D modeling tools from the ground up.
You will learn how to create accurate 3D solids using
• Extrude
• Revolve
• Sweep
• Loft
• Presspull
Then you'll take your skills further by modifying models using professional tools such as
• Union
• Subtract
• Intersect
• Fillet and Chamfer
• Shell
Throughout the course, you'll build real hands-on projects including mechanical parts (brackets, flanges, shafts) and simple architectural objects (tables, doors, window openings) so you gain practical, job-ready experience.
You'll also learn how to
• Navigate efficiently using UCS and 3D viewing tools
• Apply materials and create basic renderings
• Generate professional 2D drawing views from 3D models
• Prepare and export files for printing
Each section includes guided hands-on exercises so you can practice immediately and reinforce what you learn.
By the end of this course, you will be confident in creating, modifying, and presenting 3D models using AutoCAD's core tools, skills applicable to mechanical design, architecture, and engineering workflows.
Whether you are a student, designer, engineer, or drafting professional, this course will give you a solid foundation in AutoCAD 3D modeling.
Let's begin your journey into AutoCAD 3D.
