SOLIDWORKS Tech Tip: Surfacing Techniques Made Easy

Many high quality designs are created using Surfacing commands in SOLIDWORKS. These commands can seem daunting to use if you’re not too experienced, however many of them are a lot simpler than you may think! For example, many thin-walled bodies are created from just a couple features. Often times, Surface Bodies are created to be oversized and incorporate twist and curvature, then they’re trimmed back to refine the shape. From there, the thin walled body can be created from thickening the surface. Check out the video below to learn more!
