This project aims at introducing students to the world of BRL-CAD. It is a beginner’s guide so the main focus is on making the reader familiar with this software and getting them started. The project is a step by step tutorial to model a chess set. Since the target audience is high school students, therefore, this project makes sure the students are well-fed with the required information and keeping it simple at the same time. | This project aims at introducing students to the world of BRL-CAD.

| − | + | * BRL-CAD requires a lot of practice to master. I modeled a lot of shapes to understand the commands so that I | |
| − | + | can explain them in an easier manner. | |
| − | + | * Modeling BRL-CAD changed the way I look at designs. | |
| − | + | * The major challenge I faced was when I tried to model the chessboard and the first chess piece pawn. Mentors helped me improve and then I could model any piece in very less time. | |
| − | + | * Another challenge I faced was to explain the measurements and dimensions in an easier fashion so that the readers don’t leave confused. | |
| + | * I learned a lot about keeping your readers in mind while writing the doc which is one of the key ingredients for writing anything. I learned this by looking at my mentors. | ||
