r/SolidWorks

In part 5 I added the front pumper section and started the top section . Stay toon for more sections. Cheers 🍻

Took the CSWE and managed to fail by one question. Failed the part modification+in context assembly design. Got 33% and 75% on the sheet metal and BOM, respectively. Definitely going work on those, but three months is so long.

I’m trying to apply a sketch onto a curved (round) surface, but SolidWorks won’t let me use the “Wrap” feature even though I’ve already selected the sketch.

How can I get this to work properly?

How can I get the area that is sticking out to conform to the shape? overall it is close to want I want except for the edge.

Hello everyone, in my class of solidworks, the prof is trying to teach us how to use reference drawings as a base of a whole project and i just cant seem to figure out how he did the part of the lamp where the lightbulb goes. I see he has some reference drawings on the top plane as well as on the right plane, but and then what?.

Do you guys know the processus that i would have to follow?

first picture is the example of the prof (that he didnt explain, we just went over it really fast to show something else) and the second picture is what i have. I also add a picture of what it should look like.

Thank you all!!

Hi, I don’t know why but my image becomes grey the moment I switch visualize to « accurate ».

Does anyone knows how to make it stay the same?

I av been trying to create a cavity within a solid block. I initially used to cavity command with a scale of .25%. However, run into the issue where the created cavity intersects with the design component. I decided to also create the cavity with 0% and later scale it to1.25%. Still ended up with the same issue
