SOLIDWORKS Part Reviewer: Trident Tutorial
The features used in the trident part include: revolves, lofts, move face, combine, mirror, scale and one delete face. There are multiple loft features including two “centerline” lofts that act like “swept lofts”. The scale feature is used twice to save time reducing the size of geometry in a pattern versus creating smaller versions from scratch. There is one example of a face fillet using the hold line option.
