This is me. Check my bio for photographic verification. I made me in a 3-D Design course after I broke my wrist and couldn't use the saws.
And though I was using Illustrator, not Rhino or AutoCAD or anything more appropriate for 3-D part-making, I ended up really enjoying the considerations that went in to designing for three dimensions. There's a complexity to adding another dimension—of space, time, or media—that enriches every project and makes the challenge all the more gratifying.
