00:09I'll create a 3D model from a 2D design.
00:13I'll start with this 2D drawing, showing the top, front, and right side views of a coffee mug.
00:20Before I get started, I'll select the 3D modeling workspace.
00:25This gives me easy access to the most commonly used 3D modeling tools.
00:29Now I have the solid, surface, and mesh tabs available on the ribbon.
00:34For this video, I'll use tools available from the home tab.
00:39Because 3D objects are easier to create and visualize in a 3D view,
00:43I'll hold down the shift key and mouse wheel button while moving the mouse to change the view.
00:49I could also change the view using the view cube.
00:52Next, I'll select the shaded visual style from the viewport controls.
00:58I'll extrude the 2D base of the mug, giving it a height of 3.8, to create a 3D cylinder
01:04for the body of the mug.
01:07Now I'll create a circle and give it a radius of 1.5.
01:12Next, I'll use press pull to create the interior of the mug, giving it a depth of 3.5.
01:20Notice how press pull subtracts the center of the cylinder.
01:24I'll select 3D align, select the center line of the 2D handle, and press enter.
01:31I'm going to copy and align the 2D handle to the 3D mug.
01:36I'll select two base points along the center line of the 2D mug.
01:40I'll press enter to continue through the third base point.
01:44Next, I'll select two destination points along the center line of the 3D mug to rotate the handle.
01:51For the third destination point, I'll select the end point of this center line to locate the handle to the
01:57mug.
01:58To complete the handle, I'll select sweep to sweep the profile of the handle along the 2D path.
02:06And finally, I'll orbit around the 3D mug by holding down the shift key and mouse wheel button.
