Have you ever wanted an easy way to relocate a feature that was already created in SOLIDWORKS, without ever having to edit that feature’s sketch? That’s entirely possible through the use of the Instant3D functionality! SOLIDWORKS Instant3D is a great tool for quickly creating and modifying any kind of model geometry, as well as sketch

Ever wish there was an easy way to keep detailed revision notes, pictures, or other relevant, non-CAD data with your model? In the “old days” of paper drawings, there would be a packet of information (now called metadata) that would travel with a print. SOLIDWORKS PDM does a great job of tracking this metadata, if

What is this?! Jesse Sprague badmouthing 3D Modeling? What has this world come to? Oh contraire, my fair readers. Read On. On this day I am more impressed with 3D Modeling than ever. It is the way of the present but it is also the way of the future. While the SOLIDWORKS system of tools is

In my previous post, I spoke about the relationships we make through daily interactions. This time I’d like to discuss how those interactions differentiate our offerings in comparison to other design applications. Every design solution in the market today claims to be the “best in the industry.” However, statements to support this claim are so subjective,
