Completed 608 Ball Bearing Tutorial


Finally finished this pretty serious engineery Blender tutorial to create a Ball Bearing. I should have done one of these earlier. I learned so many modeling tricks like aligning vertices up to a point or cutting a mesh, or making bevels, or making curves by hand, and using blender's mesh tools.

Definitely worth a go: link

All this technical stuff is kinda fun (curse of being the son of an engineer, I suppose), but at the end of the day I do believe it will come through in my animation.

[update: added materials!]
