Dimension Control SolidWorks
In this episode Matt demonstrates several ways to add dimensional control to your SolidWorks sketches.
Flattening Curved Surfaces in Rhino
In episode #3 of Matt’s Minute, we learn three ways to flatten surfaces in Rhino.
Replace Face and Move Face in Inventor
In Inventor, I use a lofted surface to replace a face of a solid, and then extend the solid with the Move Face command, stretching the area of the lofted surface.
Simulate Mechanisms with Blocks in SW Sketches
In this episode of Matt’s Minute, I show how to use blocks in SolidWorks sketches to simulate mechanisms. Sometimes full-on 3D is too much for simple conceptual work. In cases where what you really want to do is cut shapes out of paper and make a little mechanical mock-up, blocks in a sketch work great for this kind of work. Editing and coloring the blocks is also easy. Blocks can be made external and shared or reused in other documents. Check out this short video to see SolidWorks sketch blocks in action.
