In this part, we build a hexagonal head screw. Nothing fancy, just geometry : Lines, Circles, trim (I can’t type T on my keyboard so I used EXtend with the Shift key).
Please feel free to skip to part 2/6 if you’re already familiar with these tools. But I suggest watching from 5:51 to end to understand later how the screw head is constrained.
