Flattening a Torus and Boolean Union

In this chapter, you'll be adding a little hook at the top of the pendant so it can be worn on a necklace. The skills that will be covered include:

  • Adding a new torus object to your project
  • Rotating and laying out objects with the Transform tools
  • Using Border Select to select multiple vertices at once
  • Using Scale to standardize a group of vertices to a specific height to make a flat base
  • Using the Boolean Union Modifier to make multiple objects into a single mesh
  • Exporting your work into the STL file format for 3D printing
