Translate Arrays

Build one small box, then reuse it through linear, planar, and volumetric translation tools. The goal is not just duplication, but understanding how each array tool asks for a different measurement and span.

Use this lesson when you need evenly repeated masses such as studs, pavers, shelving blocks, or voxel-like layout studies.
