What's in the course
This course starts from scratch assuming you know nothing about Solidworks and basic things like navigation tools, setting units and making simple sketches are introduced first-hand. Gradually you will learn to make simple as well as complex 3D parts using part modelling tools.
Rather than explaining how the tool and command work the course focuses on how these tools and commands can be used in a real-world situation and hence almost all the videos are explained with examples of real-world applications.
Currently, this course covers part modelling, assembly and drawing sections of Solidworks.
Course structure
Every chapter contains video lessons, practise exercises and quizzes to help you assess your performance of every chapter. At the end of this course, there is a practical project where you will learn to make a Connecting Rod right from scratch including its smaller components and also you will learn to assemble it and convert the assembly and parts into manufacturing-ready drawings.
Once you finish the course...
After finishing the course you will be able to make your own parts, assemblies and drawings using Solidworks. You will also be able to make manufacturing-ready drawings and parts with proper specifications and drafting standards.
