CAD Work Explanation

I've added some images of my CAD-CAM work done in the Metals-Jewelry-CAD-CAM program at Tyler. All these pieces were modeled on a program called Rhino, and the images were created using Flamingo, a rendering program.

Virtual = An object that can only exist in the virtual world

Actual = An object that, if printed, could function and exist

Tangible = An object that has been produced and now has a physical existence. In my case this means it has been printed by a Z-Corp printer in gypsum (plaster).
