Skyhook Tutorials
Welcome to cudacountry's Skyhook balance toy tutorials. We use SOLIDWORKS 2018 to design our Skyhook. Mastercam 2020 and Mastercam for SOLIDWORKS to create CNC toolpaths to cut the Skyhook on your CNC mill. Also, Adobe Illustrator or CorelDRAW to cut out part on your laser engraver. The following tutorials with the PDF icon are available for viewing. Download the free reader from Adobe.
