From: kareninventress@yahoo.com on 6 Aug 2006 21:21 Would anyone here know of a tutorial for 3-D Sketching, other than the Wire Oven Rack, that is included in the Solidworks Online Tutorial? I know that this forum is blessed with quite a few specialty experts here on some of the many different phases of Solidworks, and yet for some reason 3-D sketching is very rarely spoken of . I know that there must be some finer points on the subject to cover than that particular tutorial does, as fine a tutorial as it is. I have a particular need to learn to sketch steam piping in many crazy different and overlapping directions, for an antique steam powered boat model , and I hope that the compass directions alone that the online tutorial demonstrates is enough. Or is it? Karen
From: modelsin3d on 9 Aug 2006 10:49 Doesn't get much better than this.... This is a mouse tutorial that is really great at helping you understand some 3D sketching. http://www.productdesignforums.com/index.php?showtopic=230 Here are some others that you can check out as well http://www.productdesignforums.com/index.php?showforum=60 another great site is dimontegroup.com kareninventress(a)yahoo.com wrote: > Would anyone here know of a tutorial for 3-D Sketching, other than the > Wire Oven Rack, that is included in the Solidworks Online Tutorial? > I know that this forum is blessed with quite a few specialty experts > here on some of the many different phases of Solidworks, and yet for > some reason 3-D sketching is very rarely spoken of .

From: Mike Schick on 13 Aug 2006 05:39 I can let you have "Advanced Part Modeling"(14,647 KB) and "Sheet Metal & Weldments"(6,192 KB) from the SolidWorks 2005 Training Manuals series if you don't have them. Both have sections in them covering 3D Sketching. You also will need the self-extracting part files for each (about 13.5 MB for 'Sheet Metal & Weldments".I'm missing the part files for the "Advanced Part Modeling" somehow. If anyone has these, I sure would appreciate your help.). Hopefully you have a fast connex and a place (FTP server) to put these..

The tutorial is part of a bigger I-cast and is fairly short/ simple but extremely informative. Hope this helps. Ed
