How to create a curved speaker mesh in Solidworks
This video covers my exploration of creating a curved mesh. Instead of creating a flat mesh and then deforming that, I created a tool to control the wires, then deformed…
Create a variable pitch pattern using the deform tool in Solidworks
In my previous two videos I had been trying to figure out a reliable and fairly straight forward way of using a sketch 'graph' to control the pitch of a…
Solidworks: Modelling a Proctor Model 1481 Toaster
I created this model after being given the challenge by a viewer of my Solidworks videos. This is not a tutorial as such, as I wanted to keep the video…
Solidworks Tutorial: Modelling a spoon
This tutorial shows one of the many ways to model a spoon. In the tutorial I cover using boundary surfaces, creating offset surfaces and also variable offset surfaces between thickness…
Solidworks Tutorial: Surface modelling a three sided surface.
A short tutorial that covers building a three sided surface from two 4 sided surfaces, including a trimmed boundary. If you will be offsetting surfaces to create a plastic part,…
Solidworks tutorial: surface modelling a domed button.
Here's a Solidworks surfacing tutorial that demonstrates one way to create a domed button, using offset surfaces to control boundaries and also using the fill surface feature. This modelling technique…
Modelling a nose cone in Solidworks
Here's another quick Solidworks tutorial that covers modelling a nose cone type model. This type of model is often built of two or three sided surfaces which is not ideal…
Solidworks tutorials
I'm having a go at creating some surfacing tutorials for Solidworks. So far I have created two quick tutorials; one covers blending between surfaces that change from convex to concave,…
