Lilly will take you step-by-step through the 3D design process of drawing a propeller. We tried many methods of doing this to finally arrive at a simple procedure that produces a flexible parametric design. Follow the full transcript as you watch. You can use the same process to create one in this or other CAD software. Our design has only nine steps yet is flexible enough to accomodate a different number of blades, changes in the blade shape, angle, thickness and size and different heights and diameters for the hub and hole. If you would like this 3D file in Fusion 360 format, it is available in the Files manager in your Insight-live.com account.
In the past, we have used Adobe Premiere for making videos. This video marks our transition to using KDenlive instead (please be patient with the rough edges until we learn this better). We are using it on Linux! It is amazing that a tool this powerful exists as free software (although they accept donations).
