A couple more ways to create moulding.
In this tutorial I introduce the Outliner panel for keeping track of all these groups floating around. I also use the Line, Arc and FollowMe tools for the first time to create moulding on our bookshelf.
In this tutorial we rebuild our bookshelf with the shelves dadoed into the sides. We also rabbet the back on. I introduce the ‘guides’ feature of the tape measure as well as several shortcuts for navigating around your model, more fun with groups and different ways to select exactly what you want.
The second half of our Getting Started tutorial. In this tutorial we build a bookshelf using the tools we already learned, plus the tape measure and move/copy tool. We also start grouping our object.
