Rhino3D Tutorial

The document provides a 17-page tutorial on how to create a screwdriver model in Rhinoceros 4.0. It details each step, including starting Rhino, creating polylines and curves to define the shape, revolving surfaces, adding a pipe feature, arraying the pipe, and using booleans to subtract the pipes from the main shape. The end result is a finalized 3D model of a screwdriver.
