Tinkercad can be used to make toys, prototypes, home decor, Minecraft models, jewelry – the list is truly endless!
​
Tinkercad uses three easy steps:
1. Place- Shapes are basic building blocks of Tinkercad. A shape can add or remove material. Import your own, or work with existing shapes.
2. Adjust- Move, rotate and adjust shapes freely in space. Use tools like the ruler to input exact dimensions.
3. Combine – Group together a set of shapes to create models as detailed as you want.
Educational uses:
  1. Create a Makerspace station.
  2. Develop spatial sense while building and designing with geometric shapes.
  3. Build physical representations of concepts in collaboration with peers.
