Part 1: Setting Up SolidWorks

Before we begin this series, we’re going to take a look at some of the settings in SolidWorks that will help us during our process. By adjusting our program settings, we’ll ensure that we can keep any and ALL headaches to a minimum!

  1. Program Settings I (04:03)
  2. Program Settings II (07:28)
  3. Document Settings (03:01)

Part 2: Sketches

Okay folks, now that we have our program and document settings in place we can finally start to explore sketching in SolidWorks.

  1. Sketching 101 (06:29)
  2. Setup Sketch Underlay (03:26)
  3. Spline Basics I (08:18)
  1. Constraints (07:26)
  2. Spline Basics II (04:50)

Part 3: Surfaces & Features

Having combined our 2D sketches into curves in 3D space, we are now able to begin working on our very first surface! We’re also going to take a couple steps back to talk about features in SolidWorks.

  1. First Surface (05:45)
  2. Features I (09:29)
  1. Features II (04:40)
  2. Features III (06:14)

Part 4: Solids & More Features

In this segment we’ll be diving a little deeper into developing solids. We’ll continue with our curves and take a look at the advantages of reusing the same data over and over again.

  1. Solids I (05:25)
  2. Solids II (08:08)
  3. Absorbed Sketches (02:59)
  1. More Surfaces I (05:10)
  2. More Surfaces II (04:37)
  3. Quick Advice (07:19)
