Stem Friday 3DP Instructions:

1. Open Rhino 5 (sometimes there is trouble with the 64 bit version).
   1. Select the "small objects, millimeters" template.  
   2. If you get a message about a zoo server, use this server -- ewsd-license.ccsuvt.org
2. When Rhino opens, you should see a vertical tool bar on the left side of the screen.  If you don't have the tool bar, it's easy to restore them, watch this video.
3. Familiarize yourself with the gridline scale.  The small grid squares are millimeters; the large ones are centimeters.
4. From here on out, "click" means left click.  Don't click and drag unless told to do so.  Just click and let go.
5. Make a box.

   2. Click the box tool (blue cube) in the tool bar on the left.
   3. In any viewport (Top, Front, Right, or Perspective), click to begin creating your box. 
   4. In the same window, move your mouse to adjust the size of one wall of your box and click again to set the size.
   5. Unless you're in the Perspective viewport, move your mouse to any of the other viewports to adjust the depth of your box.  Click again to finalize the depth

      2. Pan by shifting and right clicking while you drag.
8. Delete your box by clicking on it and then pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
9. Use individual 3-D shapes to build one object.
   1. Restrict the size of your object so that it fits in a 4cm X 4cm area in each of the windows (Top, Front, and Right)
   2. Create individual shapes using the shapes in the cascading tab next to the box tool.
