Do-it-yourself (DIY) culture goes hand in hand with designers, engineers, and anyone who likes to take on a project deemed difficult for a non-professional. DIY is great for those of us who like a challenge, but it is also a good way to save money: why buy something when you can make it yourself?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whytryjohn3.png\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With the design and organizational tools offered by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solidworks.com\/lp\/3dexperience-solidworks-offers\"><strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE WORKS<\/a> on the <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE platform, do-it-yourself projects are easy.

Part of John\u2019s job is making <a href=\"https:\/\/www.solidworks.com\/lp\/exploring-3dexperience-works-live\">videos<\/a>, and he is always trying to up his production quality. He may be an amateur videographer, but he\u2019s an expert <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE WORKS user, so he decided to put his skills to the test and create a homemade, DIY camera slider using 3D Creator, a parametric modeling tool in the <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE WORKS portfolio, and parts he had lying around his house.<\/p>\n<p>John was able to design and build a camera slider that gives him buttery smooth shots for a fraction of the cost. With the measuring tools, exploded views, and other capabilities available on the <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE platform, he was able to check and see if the materials he had available would be enough for his DIY camera slider\u2014no second guessing or waste.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-44746\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4.png 2560w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4-300x165.png 300w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4-615x338.png 615w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4-768x422.png 768w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4-1536x845.png 1536w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4-2048x1126.png 2048w, https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/07\/whyTryJohn4-728x400.png 728w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>With the freedom provided by <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE WORKS, both with the multitude of design tools at your disposal and the ability to use digital design tools anywhere at any time, you have a DIYer\u2019s dream at your fingertips.<\/p>\n<p>Why try <strong>3D<\/strong>EXPERIENCE WORKS?
