Hi there! Glad you asked - I am a creator of Blender courses, my main platform is Youtube and Skillshare. I am a goldsmith, autodidact in Blender and freelancer for about 5 years in 3d design for 3d printing, but I also dabble in illustration and animation.

I recently launched a Blender course for complete beginners. It gives a complete overview of the basic functionality. It think it is exactly what you requested. It is available in German and English.

It is relatively short, around 1:50. If you already have CAD experience you may be able to work through it in even less time. You will gain a very good basic understanding of the Blender UI functionality and may branch in any direction you would like to.

Here is the introductory lesson on YT in English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uubpbTLQQzk

...und hier in Deutsch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qISnAxWaMQA&t=2s

If you'd like one free year of Skillshare premium, you might participate in my give away which runs until end of October, I also plan another one in November. Just create a project model and post a screenshot under the Skillshare course (will be explained there also), and you enter the give away. Honestly, you will have a real chance of winning, as the courses just launched recently and there aren't as many projects yet :)

Hope this helps!

Greetings and viele Grüße Gesa

Happy to hear that people are offering courses for Blender.

I skimmed through the course and will do the tutorial later on my machine.

The combination with jewelry is nice even if I didn't know such use-cases exist.

Thanks! I do have a lot on jewelry and 3D printing, but I also recently launched a purely introductory course which is for anyone interested in Blender. Just visit my Skillshare profile page, there you can find all the courses if you scroll down, as well: https://www.skillshare.com/r/user/gesa_pickbrenner
