##Building Java3D

The instructions below are based on eclipse, however they should work on most common IDE's

Clone this repo, make note of the root folder you use  
Right click on the Project Explorer view and select Import  
Expand the Maven group and select Existing Maven Project and click Next  
For Root directory click Browse and find the root folder that you cloned the repo into  
There should be a pom.xml that is ticked in the Projects area  
Click Finish  
Repeat for java3d-utils  
Repeat for vecmath  
If you are new to Java3D then it might be good to repeat for java3d-examples too.  

Now if you right click on  
org.jdesktop.j3d.examples.hello_universe.HelloUniverse.java  
Run as ... Java Application  
You should see Java3D working
