Goblin steering wheel primary school design workshop

Goblin steering wheel design workshop resources

These resources have been made available online to enable you to take part in the workshop to design a steering wheel for the Goblin go-kart using Autodesk Tinkercad computer aided design software. Your steering wheel design can be emailed to WMG Outreach staff and we will display your design in augmented reality on a photo of the Goblin and send a screenshot back to you. See the images to right.

Tinkercad is a colourful, easy to learn software, which is free to use in the web browser at www.tinkercad.com, so no software to download - it is ideal for children to get started with CAD.

Download these instructions to guide you through the workshop. It has hyperlinks to the files below as they are used in the workshop.
