3D Modelling CAD
Solidworks is recommended for more sophisticated and end-to-end modelling however this simple tutorial based on Onshape must give you a good idea of concepts.

Yordan Tsvetkov introduces the basics of computer-aided design (CAD) using Onshape, one of the most popular CAD platforms. The tutorial walks you through completing the middle section of the biomimetic finger in just 15 minutes, while teaching you how to navigate Onshape and use fundamental sketching and 3D modeling tools. Key topics include:
Navigating the Onshape interface
Creating sketches on planes and faces
Using geometry tools (Rectangle, Line, Circle, etc.)
Modifying sketches (Trim, Mirror, etc.)
Applying constraints
Using Extrude and Cut Extrude
Adding Chamfers and Fillets
This video is the first half of the CAD segment. The next video will complete the finger’s design and introduce additional Onshape tools and commands. By the end of the series, you’ll have a solid foundation for exploring the exciting world of robotics.
