This book provides new and

seasoned users with step-by-step procedures on creating and modifying 3D

models, working with cameras and lights, assigning materials to objects,

rendering, and printing. Unlike many AutoCAD competitors, it uses both metric and imperial units to

illustrate the myriad tools for this popular application. Use the companion

disc to set up drawing exercises and projects and see all of the book's figures

in color (files are also available for downloading from the publisher by

writing to info@merclearning.com).

AutoCAD

2020 3D Modeling includes 50 "mini-workshops," that complete small projects

from concept through actual plotting. Solving all of the workshops will

simulate the creation of full projects (architectural and mechanical) from

beginning to end, without overlooking any of the basic commands and functions

in AutoCAD 2020.
