Welcome to the SolidWorks 2010 beginner course. SolidWorks has the most consistent and logical interface in the business (at least in my humble opinion) and it's rapidly becoming an industry standard. In this series we're going to take a look at the user interface, talk about differences between parts, assemblies and drawings. We'll also learn about sketch tools, look at basic features and surfacing and finish by looking at some of the more advanced features available in SolidWorks.
