**How to Get Started With Design**

Learn Solidworks! Solidworks is a CAD (computer-aided design) software that EagleStrike Team 114 uses to plan our robot out before we manufacture it. At the beginning of the year, our new designers followed these tutorials [[http://www.solidworkstutorials.com/solidworks-user-interface/|here]]. I recommend that you do the same before build season starts so that you can be on the same page as everyone else with the software.
