Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping

In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Hello everyone.

I am extremely new to Maya, I had a fiddle with it yesterday. I have been following the tutorial in the manual about rigging and character set up. I don't know where I am going wrong as I I am not able to add joints. I cannot see anything happening. Have I gone mad already? Ha Ha.

Heres hoping someone can push me in the right direction. Thank you in advance.

Can you post a screenshot? What are you doing to try to add joints?
