SolidWorks - Tutorial for Beginners in 13 MINUTES! [ COMPLETE ]

[@sirisphere]

Here from an FRC (FIRST Robotics) team, trying to teach myself SolidWorks so I can teach the members of my team. This was so helpful! Thank you for helping me teach the future engineers of the world.

[@Shardus_Blunder]

@@sirisphere If they have a solidworks student license, then they could also find hundreds of helpful videos on SoildiWorks' website.

here i am watching a solid works tutorial in a class trying to teach me how to use solid works

[@bai]

Great to hear!

Im there now ! Haha

[@sudhirpatil3434]

Fortunately i stumbled on this video! By far - one of best Tutorial on Solidwork on You tube!!👍👍 Thx!

[@bai]

Thank you so much!!!

i hope you can make a series where you design a specific product from scratch so students can learn more. for example one episode you create a complete pistol(doesnt matter if its an original design or an existing design like the glock 19), then the following episode you can create a tire rim and so on.

[@bai]

Thank you for this feedback. We may have to stick to simpler design projects, since this video is supposed to be watched by people that never did CAD too. Let's see what else we can do next time.

[@TechieTard]

@@bai lol, yeah...lets start with a straw please...

[@maxzzzie]

I feel you man.@@TechieTard

[@Damhnaic_28]

Exactly

[@satyamedh]

still helpful, thanks man

[@bai]

Glad it helped!

[@Shardus_Blunder]

Easiest thing to always follow. Always fully dimension your parts!

[@bai]

Thank you so much!!

[@charlesjagbojo]

The video is helpful for beginners indeed

[@thienphan5872]

Thank you ,your video very good !!!!

[@bai]

Glad you liked it!

[@TimeToDrawChannel]

This is the best video, very simplified. Other videos made me hate it and see it as a dull disturbing software. Thank you, i hope you make a simplified explanation about cnc settings in SOLIDWORKS. Thank you

[@bai]

Thank you for sharing your experience!!

[@catlanningnoun7229]

Thank You, this was very useful

[@bai]

Thank you for your comment!!

[@SuDuMo]

incredibly helpful!!!

[@AlvaroALorite]

Really? It barely scratched the surface

[@bai]

How can we improve?

Welcome!

thank you😊

[@owner9437]

here I am trying to learn how to do 3d coz I need it in my CAD class and I can't even create a simple design

[@the_fist_inyou4785]

Wow never realized how similar this is to GeoMagic! Good to know 👍🏼

[@CoolGadgets-os8ld]

happy to learn

[@bai]

No, it is a real human

[@SubhashChandra-ym3tj]

Western world is very particular about time and eastern world video will have more talks and takes time. Very nice effort

[@qual1356]

I have experience using auto desk inventor and fusion 360 this program seems like it has more features

[@HaiVanbk94]

i trust you !!

[@idan-yf8oy]

7:05 caught me off guard

[@triumfdula8830]

Beside SolidWorks can you name some other software that compete with SolidWorks and most important can you say where does SketchUp stand in this list or is it anywhere near with these industrial 3d modeling software ?

[@caspernicus5822]

OnShape is pretty similar to SolidWorks

[@avkest]

I have used Fusion 360, and it provides a good variety of functions. Solidworks is better if being used solely for CAD, but Fusion 360 also allows you to easily do CAM and post which are steps in the manufacturing process, among many other features. Some people I know use Onshape for quick prototyping on the go, and it is much easier to learn, albeit with less functionality that SW and Fusion 360. Regarding Sketchup, it is nowhere near the level of the softwares that I mentioned earlier, and you won't find it used in mechanical/industrial engineering. Sketchup is used in architecture and also sometimes used in the film industry to visualize scenes. However, for mechanical and industrial uses, I would recommend avoiding Sketchup and sticking to SW, Fusion 360, or a similar software as they provide you with the right tools for these kinds of projects. There are other softwares out there but my experience is limited to the ones I mentioned.

[@vikasguptayt2546]

I am watching this tutorial to prepare for an interview

[@bai]

Best luck with it!!!

[@SurajKumar-sc7ws]

Thank you for the video .. Its really great! How do I move the whole 3D object in any direction? I don't get that...

[@rcp9ty]

8:56 talks about this

[@sucymrn84]

watching ts because i fully forgot how 2 use it for my DCG class

[@m0rph3us666]

can i change the language to something other than my system language?

[@enasalareef5961]

This might be a long time, but there is a youtube video titled "Change the SOLIDWORKS Language" By Hawk Ridge System that tells you how to do it. It involves switching and renaming the file for the language you want to use for example "Polish."

[@boyscout-p3u]

thanks

[@smoothie3d46]

Coming from traditional polygon modelling software as 3ds max and Maya. This is scary

[@ronchampagne8484]

I recently had my job expand to include solid works . I have 22 years experience with various CAD/CAM programs . Solid works is a nightmare . Between the absolutely ugly overdone ways it does anything to the constant crashes , lockup’s etc it is simply unusable . I had to go back and tell them I cannot complete tasks with this garbage software .

[@Dr.Johnson]

Which CAD Software do you think is better?

[@doneythomas]

Photoshop is much better!!

[@onderbroekie]

wich is better?

[@Thebadbeaver9]

Ok boomer 🤣🤣🤣

[@cliff5021]

Photoshop isn't vector based. You aren't going to be able to manufacture anything for a PS file type. For graphics is great. And if you are going to machine something you will need a CAM program. SolidCam is good but MasterCam has sold far more seats for a reason. IF you are going to actually mill, turn, burn it need Gcode AND you need to create the object you either just get MasterCam, and have a better time drawing with sightly less tools than Solidworks. Or get Solidworks/cam and have a less powerful CAM package. Do you understand GenX/millennials? Or should I say you'll get a trophy no matter which way you go and it doesn't matter if you are efficient or effective.

[@therealthreadkilla]

I'm suspect from the very beginning. "always draw 2D objects on the top plane" That makes no sense to me. On every 2D drawing I've ever used, drawn, or worked with the "Z+" plane is pointing at you the "Y+" goes from bottom up and the "X+" goes from left to right so why not draw that way in the 3D???? I've been using PTC for decades and am now forced to change over to Solidworks. I'm not thrilled about that but I'll be sketching and orientating as I have for my entire engineering career. The way you're doing it the Z points down......show me any graph in history that does that? On a side note, way back we used to use the left hand rule to keep track of orientation, keep in mind this was wireframe only days. Thumb points at you, the Z+ plane, the pointing finger points up, the Y+ plane, and the FU finger points to the right, the X+ plane. Many times the methods used in Solidworks appear to be designed NOT for the engineer.

[@Anewedition2024]

it costs money tho

[@VISHNUS-ch2pq]

Sir...

[@bai]

What :(

[@araimages]

Extremely confusing on sketching, French could have come up a lot easier way to create sketch, I am a student for over 2 months and I still cant figure out how to sketch this damn software, they made it very difficult to sketch even tho it make sense. I am exhausted

[@bai]

Give to yourself proper time!

[@oldschoolcars3318]

GROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF is with swinging views around like you are trying to induce an epilptic fit. BEGINNERS MEANS SLOW, STEADY SPOON FEEDING: NOT NAUSEA!
