Creating 3D Sketches in SolidWorks

 

This video shows the basics of using 3D sketches within your models.  3D Sketches are very useful when creating car chassis or anything where lines or curves cross through multiple planes.  They reduce the number of planes that will need to be created and used in your model.  The key to using them correctly is to utilize reference geometry and existing features, so that your lines are placed where you want them.

I hope you enjoy.
