Modeling for 3D Printing - CAD-like exactness Part 1

In this video I cover the tools and techniques that can be used to do CAD-like exact modeling in Blender. My recording ran a little long so I cut it into two parts.

In this part I respond to a comment on the last video. I go over Blender's settings to make learning it easier. Then I introduce the the Properties panel, typing your dimensions in, typing your modifiers effect.

Stay tuned for Part 2.
