Video 201. Online SolidWorks - 25 - Hammer Head – Lofted Boss/Base & Lofted Cut Tour with Options. In this video we will look at all of the ins and outs of the Lofted Boss/Base feature - exploring the various options and what they do. This videos covers a bunch of advance options. For the class - only the first 15 minutes or so may be of the most use for now. But remember the rest of the video for potential future needs. EXTRA CREDIT IF YOU CREATE THIS PART - 20pts (as a reward for reading and performing the exercises on the website). Back to the top - Video 202. Online SolidWorks - 26 - Hammer Handle – Lofted Boss/Base and Lofted Cut Features with Options. In this video we will discuss the application of the Lofted Boss/Base Feature using various profile and Guide Curves to drive our design. We will also explore offsetting planes for profiles, the Ellipse Sketch Entity, the Style Spline for our Guide Curve and the Extrude Cut Feature – using the Draft option - and cutting to the outside. Back to the top -- Video 203. Online SolidWorks - 27 - Sweep and Loft Features - How to Model a Fender, or Similar Form. In this video we will set up the Swept Boss/Base feature by working on some complex sketches for the path and profile then sweeping it down our path to complete our Wheel Guard. We’ll then set up our Guide Curves and our Loft Profiles for our Lofted Boss/Base Feature to finish things off. Back to the top - Video 206. Online SolidWorks - 30 - Part Configurations – Short Tour – Sarrus Hinge Plate - Part in a Part. Its like a Part Within a Part. In this video you will see how to create different SolidWorks part configurations using your Sarrus Mechanism Hinge Plate part model. With a lot of shared geometry, there is no need to create different parts. Instead, with hinge elements on all 4 sides of the part we will cut portions of those elements from the model then suppress or unsuppress these features for each configuration we create.
