Here we model the last part needed to complete the Drift Trike assembly. Stuart will be modelling a 6th of the wheel spokes and then patterning this to give the whole design. This way ensures that all the model is symmetrical and consistent. Using this technique is also a great if your designs ever change.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Previous Parts:\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Part 1: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fblogs.solidworks.local\u002Ftech\u002F2017\u002F05\u002Fsolidworks-drift-trike-frame-design.html\">Frame Design\n\u003C\u002Fa>Part 2: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fblogs.solidworks.local\u002Ftech\u002F2017\u002F06\u002Fsolidworks-drift-trike-fork-design.html\">Fork Design\u003C\u002Fa>\nPart 3: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fblogs.solidworks.local\u002Ftech\u002F2017\u002F07\u002Fsolidworks-drift-trike-saddle-design.html\">Saddle Design\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The CAD modelling topics covered here will be;\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cul class=\"UL\">\n\u003Cli>Circular patterning\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Reference surfaces\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Combine\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003Cli>Working with Multi-bodies\u003C\u002Fli>\n\u003C\u002Ful>\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-embed-handler wp-block-embed-embed-handler wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\u003Cdiv class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">https:\u002F\u002Fwww.youtube.com\u002Fembed\u002Fh_-8LqcCWzY?feature=oembed\u003C\u002Fdiv>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\u003Cp>See Cadtek’s \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.cadtek.com\u002Fdrift-trike-rear-wheel\u002F\">original article here\u003C\u002Fa>.
