Introductory Tutorial 4: 3D Bay, Blank Fitting, Board Info

In the 4th and final video of our AkuShaper Introductory Tutorial Series, we cover the basic functions used in the 3D Shaping Bay, how to select a blank for your design, and how to use the Board Info Tab. These tools are used to examine the finished design of your surfboard and are useful to manage your designs after they have been finished and are ready to be shaped.
