How do you create a part in SolidWorks? Follow the corresponding steps in the SolidWorks Tutorial to learn how to sketch, dimension and apply relations. Create an extrude boss/base, extrude cut, fillet and shell features. Also learn how to modify your part. Developed in SolidWorks 2009 to help students learn SolidWorks.

Lesson 2 Assembly. Create Tutor2 part that uses and extrude base, extrude cut, fillet and shell feature. The offset sketch tool shows how to utlize existing geometry. This part and the Tutor 1 part created in Lesson 1 are combined to create the Tutor assembly. Shows how to insert components, use Mate and modify display states. Uses SolidWorks 2009.

Lesson 3 Drawings. Begin with the SolidWorks Drawing Template, modify Document Properties, set drawing standard. Insert the Tutor1 part created from Lesson 1 Parts. insert views and dimensions. Insert the Tutor assembly and a Bill of Materials. Created in SolidWorks 2009.

Modeling up a Simple Table using SolidWorks Weldments is easy. This video will take you through creating a 3Dsketch, downloading the latest Weldment Profiles off the SW website (via Design Library), adding them to your folder, and then using them to crea

In this video I will be describing how I create 3d Sketches, and use weldments to make chassis. To finish the video off I also show you how to use the FEA tools in solidworks to extremely quickly analyze stresses in the members.
