Newcomers sometimes struggle with the mouse functions. Just adding that pushing down on the scroll wheel is how you rotate the object in 3D easily. Or you can grab the rotary arrow tool. Also, SolidWorks is fun on a touch screen!
while you were using fillet command , how are you rotating the part? Is there a shortcut cause I generally do it by right clicking the mouse and selecting rotate.
Thanks so much for this, I was given this program and never touched it because it was totally outside my domain of fabrication... You just changed everything!!! God bless you!!!
Great tutorial! This was a pro-quality tutorial for these reasons: concise, well-rehearsed, clear and simple outline, repetitive steps to reinforce ideas. The video is well-edited too. Among the three different Solidworks tutorials I watched today, Invention Therapy was the best by far.
Holy fuck that was hard to watch. Please, don't draw sketches on every surface, sketch on main planes, project geometry, and use features whenever possible.
Great work! I recollected all the process doing my thesis in technical university of Athens. Forging simulation with CAE software and geometry creation with solidworks.. I reckon these softwares , ten years after my occupation with that, will be more elaborate.
your tutorials will be way better, and less distracting if you get rid or down size your logo! It occupies almost an entire third of the bottom screen!
I'm interested in 3-D Graphic Designing (I'm part of a robotics team and am one of the programmers). I've been considering on working on solid works with some of my teammates. Thank you so much for taking the time to provide us free how-to videos.
Easy. There is a specific command for threads called hole wizard. Pick your position, thread type from it's library(#2-56, #4-40,...1/4-20, 1/4-28....whatever), depth, cbore, csink. I'm sure you have googled this by now. Right? Right!!!
LMAO the way how he says hes literally going to do it, and then the rock music comes in, hilarious, like hes the badass hero of all the students who procrastinated until literally the hour before the exam and this guy is the superhero who is gonna save the day
How are you rotating the object/part? I cannot figure out how to do this in Solidworks. I can do it in all of my 3d editing software. I've tried alt, ctrl, shift, but nothing seems to work. It looks like you are freely rotating it in this video. I can't find a video on how you do this. Can you please tell me?
I enjoyed this video. I had to slow down the speed at some parts, but it is great. Is there a way to get a student license while this covid virus has me out of work?
The student license still costs $100, and you have to have an active student email account. Be prepared to spend lots of time fiddling with the install, they make it a pain to download the student version, and customer support will refuse to talk to you as you're a peon "student licensee". That was my experience, at least, and comment forums online tell me I'm not a rare case.
How are u rotating your model? Keyboard? I liked the tutorial. I think your assuming we know a lot of things. Example is mouse over on the origin or the color of the lines. For a beginner tutorial it is basic so thanks for that
Thank you so much you save lives, I didn't understood a single thing of what my teacher was even saying, I wish videos like this were just shown in class and explained
Is there a feature to enable the application of a property to multiple selected faces simultaneously, to avoid repeat selection and potential errors like the one shown, assuming it wasn't a software bug? You should be able to select, "Apply function to all sides" or 12 mating edges for a box or apply it to all external or internal surfaces on selected planes and delete those that don't apply if it's faster that way. You could have 800 that need it but only 20 that don't. Which is quicker? This is how gear teeth or splines are done, at least I hope so! You could apply all features to this model in 2d before clicking, "Form cube" or just select the cube pattern from a menu of common shapes, (and common items like engine blocks, manifolds and water pump housings etc.), then stretch the cube into a longer box if necessary with elliptical apertures on the long sides which could later be revised into 3 circles if preferred or deleted. I wouldn't have a clue how to actually code it but who writes this stuff? I'm sure Sketch Up 8 had the features I described years ago. Probably Solidworks does but this is just a quick demo the hard way perhaps? You could also apply procedurally generated transitions. That's what computers were invented for, apart from IBM doing the accounting for the Nazi death camps but that's another story. Did you see the video of the first chair ever created entirely by A.I.? I didn't watch it as it would probably blow my mind. Also it can't have been entirely A.I. as certain design parameters would have to have been specified like, "Make it chair shaped. Here are the basic features and proportions we want" or it could have accidentally generated a more intelligent human brain and taken over the planet like The Lawnmower Man!
How do you make sure that the circles are in the centre of the surface? because in my case the red arow (x y line) is not in the centre of the square surface
Draw a center line (dotted line tool in the sketch menu) in the x or y direction from the center of the sides. This will give you a dotted line down the center that will automatically lock the circle’s center when you pick the middle of the dotted line. You can also use the “relations” box to put the circle center in the middle of the dotted line. I discuss all this stuff in some of these videos.
left click on that surface, activate sketch by selecting "sketch" on the pop up menu next to your mouse cursor, draw a centerline corner to corner of that surface, the draw your circle on the midpoint of that centerline. If you dont know where the midpoint is, right click on that centerline and click on "select midpoint"
THANK YOU!!! This really helped, took me from, "What does this button do" to, "Okay, I get a general idea, and I now am not afraid of the software as much!"

Thank you so much for this! Gives me a lot more confidence walking into my interview tomorrow...haven't used SolidWorks in a while and needed a refresher.
Great Video! Thanks for making this. The only thing I wish you had also included would have been a small picture in picture in the lower right corner of a video camera showing what your hands were doing on the keyboard and mouse. You were able to move the part around so easily and I struggle with this. If you had the video from above looking down at your hands I could see which buttons on the keyboard you were pressing while moving the mouse. Thanks again for the great video.

Bonjour monsieur, excellent travail J'ai un petit problème si tu veut m'aider.... Dans l"esquisse , le curseur de la souris porte toujours l'icône cotation !!! Même si cette dernière n'est pas sélectionné et lors ce que j'appuie sur une trait pour afficher une cotation elle ne s'affiche pas ....si c'est pas clair je peut vous envoyez une capture d'écran ...merci d'avance...
Hey, thank you for your tutorial. I'm just starting with SolidWorks 2017. My question, how do i get the extended toolbars, in Sketch and Features, i have way less options to select. There's only a few options and 'Draft, Freedom, Flex, Split, etc.' is not available. Can't find the settings myself.
Setting up the toolbars can be a pain but most of the choices are also in the text menus at the top of the program. You can right click with the mouse over the tool bars to add and remove them and also go into "options" to set how you prefer.

When you just lied in an interview that you know Solidworks, but you've only ever used Creo...
Gotta learn fast!
good thing he said "literally gonna teach you" and not "literally 5 minutes" cuz this is a 9 min video
He meant in five minutes time he was going to start teaching you.
He did good, He wasted 4 minutes on advertisements or talking about his plans.
your tutorials will be way better, and less distracting if you get rid or down size your logo! It occupies almost an entire third of the bottom screen!
I think you watched only the first one. We removed the bottom third if I remember correctly.
If you think that's almost a third of the screen, you're gonna have some problems with Solidworks. 😆

did you learn it yet?
can we copy it for 3d printing?
say i wanted that hole threading how would i put a thread in the hole pitch depth etc
Easy. There is a specific command for threads called hole wizard. Pick your position, thread type from it's library(#2-56, #4-40,...1/4-20, 1/4-28....whatever), depth, cbore, csink. I'm sure you have googled this by now. Right? Right!!!

really nice video thanks a lot
This is incredibly useful
that inches setting can be done right from the main screen bottom right, that saves you at least 10 seconds
