<p>Howdy fellow Rhino teachers,</p>
<p></p>
<p>I'm teaching as part of a night external study digital fabrication course.</p>
<p>I have to come up with three projects that adult beginners need to create in Rhino and then fabricate using either a 3D printer or a laser cutter all within 3 hours while teaching basic Rhino concepts in somewhat of an organized fashion.</p>

<p>i love the Tootsie Roll project (here we have Yoguetta lol) - thinking of doing that one (basic srf commands and rendering)</p>
<p></p>
<p>anyone have any suggestions for me?</p>

<p></p> Simplified toolbars for elementary level studentstag:rhino3du.ning.com,2018-04-30:6307585:Topic:298982018-04-30T14:13:21.412ZJohn Niebergallhttp://rhino3du.ning.com/profile/JohnNIebergall
<p>I have been having a discussion with John Niebergal and others about having a simplified version of Rhino. One that has most of the toolbars striped out and just focus on 2D Drafting tools.</p>
<p>The Genesis of the idea: </p>
<p>I did a project with my daughters 3rd grade class where the students designed a zoo and calculated the area and perimeter of their enclosures . We modified the Rhino interface so they had only 5 icons -- all the rest were gone -- so as to not confuse…</p>
<p>I have been having a discussion with John Niebergal and others about having a simplified version of Rhino. One that has most of the toolbars striped out and just focus on 2D Drafting tools.</p>
<p>The Genesis of the idea: </p>
<p>I did a project with my daughters 3rd grade class where the students designed a zoo and calculated the area and perimeter of their enclosures . We modified the Rhino interface so they had only 5 icons -- all the rest were gone -- so as to not confuse them.</p>
<p></p>
<p>This developed into the idea of having a set of toolbars for 2D drafting, and editing tools.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Here is what I came up with:</p>
<p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038578466?profile=original" target="_self">drafting%202D.rui</a></p>
<p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038578536?profile=original" target="_self">2D%20Editing.rui</a></p>
<p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038579020?profile=original" target="_self">2D%20Text.rui</a></p>
<p></p>
<p>Then I modified the commands and added a Python script to many of the icons to control which layer the geometry , text, hatching, and dimensions go onto automatically. So the students don'r need to be worried or confused on which layer they are actually drawing on. </p>
<p>Here are the 'new ' toolbars. Actually just a new assembly of the existing tools. </p>
<p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038579680?profile=original" target="_self">drafting%202D%20layer.rui</a></p>
<p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038580987?profile=original" target="_self">2D%20Editing%20Layer.rui</a></p>
<p><a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038584944?profile=original" target="_self">2D%20Text%20Layer.rui</a></p>
<p></p>
<p>To load the toolbars:</p>
<p>Close the existing toolbars and opening the new toolbars. </p>
<p>Go to the pull down T<strong>ools</strong> -- <strong>Toolbar Layout</strong></p>
<p><strong>File open -- </strong>open each of the toolbars and drag them to a location on the side bar .<a href="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038585306?profile=original" target="_self"><img width="750" src="http://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3038585306?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024" width="671" class="align-left" height="828"/></a> </p>
<p>should look like this when done loading.</p>

<p>Hi there,<br/>until now I got some experience by using the oldy Newtek Lightwave 6.5. This piece of software wasn't in my possession but I had chance to freely try it without any problem. I made many small and big models and I fell in love with 3D. Later I discovered 3DS Max due to need to make some models for former popular computer games (mods) and then I saw old version of Rhino. I tried evaluation version and was excited with option and abilities. Evaluation version ended soon and I left it for better time. I'm teacher and I planned to learn and understand basic principles of design with Rhino in order to transfer it to kids, but missing of some good PDF books and comprehensible tutorial keep me away from my goals. I'm little confused how to draw some shape consist of many straight and curved lines: do I make at first plain lines, then continue from last point with curve or in reverse order? Beside this, I sometime have a need to change some part of shape from curve to straight line and vice-versa, but I don't know is it right way or there is some more easier way, like I did it in CorelDraw?<br/>Anyway, Rhino is great software, and version 5 is great lap in right direction. I hope I'll be in future to get complete version.
