SOLIDWORKS Part Reviewer: Bent tubular seat frame
Bent tubular seat frame: The projected curve was created using the Sketch on Sketch option. Note: This example shows that you may not always be able to get 100% of your desired shape from a single feature. The Projected Curve needed

Teapot Assembly: This assembly consists of eight parts. For the teapot, a surface revolve with a 2 point spline is used to form the main outer surface. Curvature display of the spline is turned on to better evaluate its shape. It
... ContinuedSolidWorks Part Reviewer: Simple Surface Part 1
Simple Surface Part 1: This part is an example of hybrid modeling techniques where geometry is created using a combination of solid and surface body features. It starts with some solid extrusion and cuts. Then surface features are used to
... ContinuedSOLIDWORKS Part Reviewer: Moderate Machine Part 1
Moderate Machine Part 1: The basic shape for this part is an octagon and it was created using a polygon sketch entity with eight sides. This part has mostly extruded features with a few revolved features and one lofted cut. Also
... ContinuedSolidWorks Part Reviewer: Wheel
Wheel: Before you start your part, be sure to determine the size and width of the wheel to be created with a base surface extrude and extract its boundaries using Composite Curves. Later you will be able to create a sketch

Moderate Sheetmetal Part 3: The sheetmetal features determine the thickness and bend radius. We will be using a 16 Gauge Aluminum for this model. A Mid Plane extrusion to center is used with respect to the Right Plane. A Base Flange/Tab feature can
... ContinuedSolidWorks Part Reviewer: Simple Machine Part 3
Simple Machine Part 3: This part is a machined part with mainly extruded bosses and extruded cuts. We also add a slot pattern that are for cosmetic purposes only, and can be varied from lot to lot. Also, by using convert entities it

Bulldozer Assembly: This assembly contains 17 unique parts with 34 components total. There are four top level configurations. The Free Range configuration uses a limit mate to correctly restrict the blade’s movement. The other three configurations show lowered, middle and raised
... ContinuedSolidWorks Part Reviewer: Scissor Assembly
Scissor Assembly: The scissor blade model is added to the handle model to represent the overmolding process.This inserted part will be used later to correctly remove material from the plastic handle. The parting line of this part is complex, and
