3D modelling in Python - Code a 3D model from scratch using cadquery

Python coding a 3D model from scratch using coordinates for a polyline, add a circular cut out, extrude, and then fillet.This may seem basic, but we will build upon this in future videos. The real power lies in the possibility to automate which is significant. In future videos we will make these models fully parametric, import values, and create multiple output files with our code. These models could be saved and used with a 3D printer, CNC mill, a CNC foam cutter, a 3D game....in fact anything which can utilise a 3D model. I viewed my STEP models in FreeCAD.
