In this 3d modeling video tutorial you will learn how to model 3d wheel model in 3d modeling and animation software Autodesk Maya. This type of 3d modeling which you will learn here in this 3d modeling lesson is called as polygon 3d modeling, in Polygon 3d modeling complex 3d model are created by editing and modifying the polygons in which surface of a simple 3d object has been divided, there are two ways of polygon 3d modeling one is using the standard primitives of the polygons in the Create menu and then dividing these simple 3d objects into polygonal surfaces and apply tools and commands for getting required 3d character and other type in polygonal 3d modeling is create simple polygon, as you know that polygons are the 2d image so we use extrude tool for making these 2d meshes into 3d model. In this lesson we are modeling a hand cart with polygon 3d modeling tools and commands. So let’s learn how to model in 3d modeling and animation software Autodesk Maya.

Steps:
- In the last 3d modeling lesson we model the wheal and then frame for holding the wheel therefore, Go to edit mesh and then apply extrusion for making wheel frame.
- Outliner is the one of the most important command for 3d modelers; it is present in the Window menus of the main menus. It gives the outlines of the objects and commands included in your 3d model.
- Open the out liner then select the wheal and make it visible from the channel box, press ‘ctrl + A’ once.
