Variable Offset Surface Tutorial in Solidworks
This tutorial covers creating a 4 sided variable offset surface in Solidworks using 3D sketches, face curves, offset surfaces, boundary surfaces and global variables. Both exercises in this video cover…
G3 Surfacing Exercise in Solidworks 2023 Sp1
I have recently installed Solidworks 2023 and thought I better have another look at the G3 constraint in sketcher. The subject matter is a bubble letter P, with a focus…
Solidworks: Rundown on the Boundary Surface Feature
In this video I cover using the following functions and options within the boundary surface feature: Single direction, two direction, tangent influence, normal to profile, direction vector, connectors, surface analysis…
Solidworks Workaround: Using Converted Entities in Boundary Surfaces
Sometimes when working on heavy models in Solidworks, it can be extremely slow using the selection manager to select a chain of edges when editing a boundary surface. A workaround…
Modelling the Ricoh Theta S Form in Solidworks
I spotted the Ricoh Theta S a while ago and have been meaning to model the main form for a video. Turns out some areas were a bit trickier than…
Pebble Form Using G3 Constraint in Solidworks
This video is an update to an older exploration, using variables to control a form. I've updated the sections to use the G3 constraint in the sketcher and also used…
