Autodesk 123D is for people who want to make things themselves. It is free 3D modeling software integrated with content and fabrication services. Anyone can learn to create highly precise 3D models, 123D has an intuitive and logical, simple user interface.
Printing in 3D is now no more complicated than printing photos in Picasa. First you design something in Autodesk 123D (in my case, my first project was a device housing prototype). Then pick “Make” from the menu. You can print your object on your desktop printer, like a Makerbot (moderate quality, now), or you press another button to have it printed (high quality, later) on a commercial printer. Enter your credit card (my prototype, shown here, cost $24) and a week later, it’s delivered to your house. Wow.
Best of all, 123D is free. This is the future of fabrication.
123D has
its own Youtube channel.
You can have your design built, with services for creating physical objects with 3D printers or Laser cutters,
