Hi, I’m Vladimir

I’m the creator behind Desktop Makes.

I’ve spent the last decade teaching people how to design and build things through makerspaces, workshops, and online courses.

Along the way:

  • I’ve taught tens of thousands of students how to use Autodesk Fusion

  • My courses have reached over 40,000 students on Udemy alone

  • My YouTube tutorials have been viewed millions of times

  • I’ve worked directly with schools, libraries, and makerspaces across Connecticut

All of that comes down to this:

I help beginners go from “I don’t get this” to designing parts they’re proud of.

About Desktop Makes

If you’ve ever wanted to design your own 3D prints but felt overwhelmed by where to start, you’re in the right place.

Desktop Makes exists for one simple reason:

To help you go from “I have no idea what I’m doing” to confidently designing and printing your own parts.

A Better Way to Learn

Everything I teach is built around one idea:

You learn faster when you’re building something real.

That’s why my courses are project-based.

Instead of random exercises, you’ll create a series of models that build on each other, step by step, until everything clicks.

You’re not just learning tools.

You’re learning how to think like a designer.
