21.  This video demonstrates the finishing of our basic, symmetric sketch geometry 
for the modeling of panels in a door with extruded cuts, fillets and chamfers as 
part of our door design. Back to the top

-

22.  This video demonstrates some mirroring options for our panel extruded cuts, 
fillets and chamfers first as sketch entities then using the Mirror Feature as part 
of our door design.  Back to the top

24.  This video demonstrates how to create a separate window body, in the 
window cut, in our door and to assign appearance settings to the window body 
as part of our door design.   Back to the top

-

25.  This video demonstrates how to assign appearance settings to the window 
body and how to add a scene as part of our door design.

27.  This video demonstrates how mirror some features from the front of the door 
to the back. It also describes how to use some of the Appearance Mapping 
options to orient the wood grain on the door.
