SolidWorks Mentor Races with STEM Education Tutorial and the Ten80 Challenge
When Jeremy Losaw, NASCAR Racing Engineer and SolidWorks Mentor for the Ten80 STEM Racing Challenge sent me this video, I could not help but ask to share it with all of you. Jeremy also sent me the part model
... ContinuedFire Extinguisher
For today's post I decided to make a fire extinguisher. This was a really fun project to build. I was not sure exactly sure how the inside of the fire extinguisher worked but with some research and some designing on
... ContinuedFire Sprinkler with Flow Simulation with SolidWorks – Revised
For this post, I decided to take the fire sprinkler that I posted on December 18th and run a flow simulation with it. In order to do this I first had to suppress the glass tube that would hold the
... ContinuedSolidWorks Expands the Science Fair to Amazing Products
Students use SolidWorks to visualize great ideas for Science Fairs and Technology Fairs. But former high school science fair winner, Ben Gullak has taken his winning project into amazing products to start his own company, BPG-Werks in just a few years. The

... ContinuedMechanical Ice Cream Scoop in SolidWorks
I came across this ice cream scoop in my kitchen and couldn't resist modelling it. It is complete except for the torsion spring that adds tension to the lever. I did not model the spring because I did not want
... ContinuedSnow Shovel
In the spirit of winter I decided to make something that is familiar to everyone who has experienced snow; a shovel. This is your classic shovel with a plastic handle and bucket and a wooden shaft. For the handle, I
... ContinuedGingerbread House in SolidWorks
This was quite a fun assembly to make. The gingerbread man was outlined using splines and a sketch picture. The model was decorated with liberal use of linear component patterns. The only difficulty was in creating the candy canes, but
... ContinuedFire Sprinkler
For this post I made a fire sprinkler thanks to the suggestion of one of my friends who is studying fire protection. The base sprinkler head was made using some boss extrudes. The threads were made by using a helix
... ContinuedW16 Engine: Intake Manifold
In this post about the W16 engine I will present the build of the intake manifold through top-down design.
See detailed explanations in the extended entry at the end of the post.
Thank you for reading about this build and stay tuned for the next post which will detail the build of the exhaust manifolds, turbo compressors and their integration with the intake manifold.

... ContinuedThanksgiving Dinner
This is part two of Dave and my joint project. We finally put dinner on the table for Thanksgiving. We had a few challenges to overcome when designing the food. This was due to the difficulty of designing natural shapes.
... ContinuedDining Room in SolidWorks
For this post, Dave and I decided to do a joint project. With the American holiday of Thanksgiving fast approaching, we thought it might be fun to create a Thanksgiving dinner in SolidWorks. This is the first of two
... ContinuedMotor W16: Blocul Motor si Chiulasele
The English version of this post can be found here.
In acest post despre motorul W16 voi arata cum am calculate unghiurile de faza ale axelor cu came si apoi voi detalia cuplarea componentelor din chiulase cu restul motorului.
O alta animatie care permite vizualizarea componentelor in miscare dintr-un cadru fix poate fi gasita aici.
Vezi explicatii detaliate in extended entry la sfarsitul postarii.
La rugamintea unui cititor voi atasa un fisier zip cu intregul motor si dar voi ascunde (hide) piesele care nu au fost prezentate inca. Descarca aici.
Va multumesc pentru ca ati citit despre aceasta constructie. Continuati sa cititi urmatoarele postari in care voi detalia crearea galeriei de admisie prin design top-down.

... ContinuedHand Drill in SolidWorks
I found an antique hand drill lying around my house and I thought this would be a fun project. I used revolve features extensively, as well as the obvious gear mates, to create an accurate representation of this mechanism. I

For this post I carved a number of different pumpkins that I based off the model that I made for my last post. To create the pumpkin eating the other pumpkin I used the scale feature to reduce the size
