This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to make three-dimensional (3-D) physical scale models in response to specifications. It does not cover the use of 3-D digital software. It involves preparing to make scale models, completing construction of the models and finalising the model construction process according to scale model requirements.

The unit applies to those who work in many industries and use any 3-D form to make scale models as an essential part of the design process for a range productions or events.
