Description: 
You’ve built your first few projects and are ready to level up. Wouldn’t it be nice to customize a design yourself? A set of plans are critical before you jump into any project, but how do you effectively convey construction information? In this course we’ll teach you how to “build” your project in 3-D virtual space and then how to share your construction information professionally and effectively using a 2-D layout program. SketchUp is useful for carpenters and woodworkers alike.

Previous Computer Aided Design is not required for this course, however comfort using a computer and virtual meeting software is required. Tutorials are available by request prior to class.

Virtual meet links provided upon registration.
