Great lesson. Also in why you always should name your sketches, planes, parts with good names so you can easily find them later ;-) . Thanks. Enjoyed it.
Importing a drawing or photo is very useful as a reference guide. What is missing from this demonstration is where the dimensions for the sketch 3 spline handles came from. It was as if you pulled them from thin air. It would be very helpful to understand how these dimensions were determined if important for the final result.
I put that info in the description. The instructions come directly from a self-paced course on Onshape's "Learning Center". You can search for it if you have access to it. I am using an education license so it may be something that isn't available for everyone. Hope this helps.
Enjoying the video; however, I am at a loss to the reasons behind the steps (I can follow along but I am just acting as a robot and not grasping when and why I would do this). Can you recommend a goods fundamentals course (my goal is to take a 2d drawing, say of a animal and then convert it into a 3d model [rather than a 2.5D where I just apply extrusions])
This is a struggle I continue to have with my students. You are not alone in feeling like you are just following a bunch of steps but not understanding why. I am going to try to do more explaining in my future videos. Drawing organic shapes is very difficult and requires the most advanced methods and tools. Hang in there and keep learning!!
Oh how satisfying it was to do that just now. This is what I needed to do for a part I have!
Thank you! This absolutely saved my IB Design tech coursework! Modeled a different ergonomic handle using this guidance and it helped so so much.

Yeah, same feeling here.

Thank you so much!
Thanks. My image comes into the sketch opaque. How to I make it transparent?

Mind if I ask: what platform/OS are you working on? Not familiar with the task bar at the bottom of the screen
