Prototyping part 3: Project workflow

- [Narrator] In this prototyping lesson,…we focus on a critical part of the project workflow…where we take our active design model,…stop the design work temporarily,…and then generate a copied version…for our prototyping and 3D printing efforts.…Let's check out this diagram first…which may help explain the process.…So I've nicknamed this workflow the forked workflow…and you can see why…because we start off with a design model.…Which is where we are right here.…At whatever point we decide the design is resolved enough,…where we want to get a 3D print…we make an additional copy.…

So you can see right here.…This is our current status.…The parts are open.…Some of them overlap and we can make quick and easy changes.…So we can continue to do that with the existing stuff here…on this top level,…but we've also made a copy and with this set of geometry…we start splicing and dicing.…I typically would be splitting or trimming…or using booleans.…Actually, whatever works the best go ahead and use it.…The goal though is we're going to take this model…
