If you let your mouse hover over a TC tool, it'll show a more informative and animated description. Nice.

Hello, I’m trying to create this a a cake topper. What I’m trying to do it remove the white background inside the circle but leave the text. Is that possible? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
New to Tinkercad. I need some square meshes like the one above for my design. I created that one piece by piece with boxes. Do I need to do that, or can I download things like this?
I searched through the shapes panel, and found one called Diamond Mesh, that lets me enter the size and spacing, etc. That's good, but I need a square mesh, not a diagonal one. Surely something like this has been done many times before.
It needs to have parameters to adjust it to the size and spacing I need. Apologies if this has been asked many times before.
Is there a way to make these joins seamless? I used a model with 20 x 20 holes, duplicated several times it then joined the duplicates together, but there's still seams in the model and in the print.
I keep trying to put them in the right posistion but they keep ending up too far off from eachother which would make it unbalanced which is bad because I was going to 3D print it.
Morning.
I work for a large service company and I’ve been trying to convince my manager that we need a 3d printer in the office and subsequent CAD training.
I have a printer at home and like everyone else, I love tinkering.
Anywho, we have a model of one of our parts we install and my boss has asked me to make a few replicas
How would I easily make these circular ridges? It’s not threads. It’s just for looks
I can handle the top part. I’m just having trouble figuring out how to make the rings
Thanks in advance!
Hello everyone one, its been a while. Here's my latest design: Nuka Cola Bottles. They won't be public designs as they are on my Cults3D page. I made the main body of the bottle using the revolved sketch.
So I have been 3d printing lego technic parts that I need for my project and it’s big thinking of printing flaps for it o connect to the cylinder any ideas
First time trying tinkercad or any cad like program in general, literally downloaded it less than an hour ago so bear with me.
I can’t seem to find a way space the holes, represented by the negative cylinders, exactly where I want them. I can align them along the axis but what I’d like to do is have the holes be 25mm (from outer wall not center) away from the left and right edges of the red rectangular prism. I tried using the ruler to measure away from the sides but it seems it measures exactly where I click on the cylinder so while it gets close, I’d like it to be precise. Anyway to do this?
I kept hitting a wall in Tinkercad when I wanted a shape that smoothly transitions from one cross-section to another — say a square base blending into a round top. Tinkercad has no loft/morph, so I built a small free tool that does exactly that, and made the output drop straight back into Tinkercad.
You pick a shape for each end — oval, rectangle, triangle, pentagon, hexagon — set the sizes and rotation, and it lofts a smooth solid between them, then exports an STL you can import into Tinkercad or slice directly. The transition is tangent at both ends (no crease), and corners stay crisp at any resolution.
It runs entirely in the browser, nothing to install, and it's free and open source:

Full disclosure: it's my own project. I'd love feedback — especially which shape combinations you'd actually use, and whether anything prints badly. There's also a small Python CLI in the repo for batch output.
another silly tank i made, takes elements from the kf-51 panther, tried to further detail the interior as well
I want to draw a complex symmetrical curved object in sketch and I want to have the stroke thickness outside the line. I’ve drawn the left hand side, copied, pasted, mirrored, moved it so the new curve meets the original, but I can’t get them to form a closed curve together. If I hit close curve I get two separate curves and a bar down the centre line which I don’t want. Is it simply not possible, because they were two separate drawing operations or am I missing something
I’m not interested in what happens when I go back to the workplane, I need the closed curve so I can have thickness on stroke only on the outside.
Sorry for the Obnoxious title, but last year I was cadding out a future business idea of mine on tinkercad, I had all the little details and everything and stupid 14 year old me didn't take screenshots of ANYTHING, it was on a school account I no longer have access to (moved out of county... And also across country) but little me did try and send the link to it in my friends discord server except it's giving the "Sorry, that page is missing" which it also did way back then. My question is is there ANYTHING I can do to access this again? I spent HOURS on the thing and there's so many tiny details it's too overwhelming to try and recad. (I have ADHD+autism) Is there anyway to get this back :(((
