The UI is slightly clunky, but it is free, does not require any sign up and ultimately works well, especially if you have an Elegoo 3D printer. It is free, multi platform, allows for custom and automatic support placement, anti-aliasing and integrates with the printers they offer with prefilled setting profiles available for their printers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat software should I use to make my models?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltimately, this is an apples and oranges situation. My advice is to use whichever you are comfortable with, no matter what it is, the software that lets you bring your vision to life is the best option for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside a computer there are essentially 2 types of modelling, 1) NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) and 2) vertexes, edges and faces. NURBS is commonly seen in CAD software. Conversely, Blender is vertex, edges and faces based. Essentially, this affects the \"resolution\" or the \"sharpness\" of your model. If you are using the \"vertex, edges and faces\" approach, you will need to increase the amount of vertices to ensure the detail is captured (especially if you are sculpting, i.e dynotopo). NURBS however, will give you a very high resolution smooth surface by default, because the shapes have been mathematically defined. Let's take a sphere for example, in Blender, you will create a UV sphere, and have the option to set how many vertical and horizontal points there are, too low and it will look blocky, too high and it can slow down your computer. In NURBS modelling programs, you simply create a sphere and it will be perfectly round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome softwares even go above and beyond with a parametric approach. These are the Autodesk ones. You're able to go back to a previous step you took and change the parameters after the fact, it's as if your changes are applied in layers, you can freely change those layers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNURBS style softwares:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAutodesk Fusion 360 (Free for students and non-commercial use)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eRhino (3 month free trial)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNURBS and Vertex\/Edges\/Faces:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eAutodesk Maya (Free for students, otherwise $$$$$)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eVertex\/Edges\/Faces style software:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eBlender (free \u0026amp; open source)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eZBrush ($$$)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eNomad Sculpt ($, iPad)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeel free to check any \/ all of these out, they usually have free trials. If you are struggling, check out Academic Phoenix Plus on YouTube for understanding what a 3D model is and working with Autodesk Maya. The concepts taught there are widely applicable to almost every 3D software. Additionally, check out PJ Chen Design on YouTube for Rhino tutorials. I personally learned from both of these amazing instructors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stem and Seed Australia","offers":[{"title":"1kg","offer_id":46135681450161,"sku":"M\/CST-4021V-01B","price":195.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5kg","offer_id":46135681482929,"sku":"M\/CST-4021V-05J","price":950.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/4654\/2257\/files\/monocure3d-burnaway-resin-1kg.png?v=1754869399","url":"https:\/\/stemandseed.com.au\/ja\/products\/monocure3d-burn-away-investment-casting-resin","provider":"Stem and Seed Jewellery Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
