OpenSCAD: Introduction

This is the first in a series of OpenSCAD tutorials. In this introductory video, we're going to look at the fundamental shapes or "primitives" that make up the foundation of nearly everything you'll be modeling, we'll look at common transformations you can apply to those primitive shapes, and we'll play with a few modifiers you can use to make visual debugging easier. To keep things from getting too heavy too quickly, this video will only scratch the surface of what primitives, transformations, and modifiers can do.
