Setting up to render

- In addition to the measured drawings and layouts…that we made in the last chapter,…I'd like to make some detailed renderings…of our musical instrument.…And while the layouts and measured drawings…will have really important technical information…that's important to give to people like our fabricators…or folks doing instrument assembly,…it's also nice to have just some accessible visual…representations that I can show to pretty much anyone…and they'll have a good idea of what…it is that we're making.…So before we get in to actually rendering…I just need to do a little bit of setup.…First of all I'm working with the exercise file…0701 render setup dot 3DM and I've already gone ahead…and hidden all of the layers except for assembled…since I'm just gonna be doing renderings…of our assembled instrument.…

I also want to make a new layer called render…and that's gonna hold things like our lights…we'll also make a backdrop surface.…Any other objects that we're making…during this process will go on that render layer.…
