How to create a PERFECT Weldment CUTLIST | SolidWorks Drawing

[@OxTorch]

Thanks Ratha! I was able to pass the Weldments exam because of this video.

[@RathaSochenda]

Great job!

[@marcbelair978]

Great video, why don't you change the sheet scale in sheet properties instead of changing each view scale?

[@RathaSochenda]

Personally preference I guess

[@GunasDIY7690]

Great work bro..its clearly shows how much interst you have on that work....

[@mikebruce7723]

Got a few good tricks out of this, thanks. Wanted to mention there is a property called Total Length which adds like sizes up which saves some time.

[@RathaSochenda]

Anytime . Cool I’ll have to check out the total length property. Thanks

[@orion-viikhmernight2748]

Thanks Ratha great tutorial I was looking to build my welding table until saw your video. I downloaded your file and take to the metal shop to cut to spec hoppfully they can give me a great deal. thanks for doing what you're doing.

Nicely done...thanks

good explanation

[@winterhome6449]

what are the numbers for your background color. Please let me know, It is really nice and I would like to adjust mine.Thank you

Im trying to create a cut list from a mirrored part which is listed as solid bodies. How can i extract that to create a cut list out of it?

[@bintanglintangcreative6037]

Nice ..

[@gleasonml]

Great Video! This really helped me build a proper weldment. You mention in the video that the Solidworks file is available for download, but I only see the PDF. Is the Solidworks available somewhere?

[@gleasonml]

Thanks for the ❤ reply. Is the Solidworks available somewhere?

[@mo7ametto822]

boss the length value in the table its length measure in sketch , How I can get the cut length not original length?

[@s.bharathvigneshwar7603]

to give information in a drawing sheet of a particular body we don't need to create a new part and do all the steps after. we could just select bodies option while inserting views in to sheets

[@dondragonzero]

You can use “Create bounding box” to fill the description

[@monsterjesse]

not bad, thnx

[@jacobpace4716]

Ratha! i love your teaching style it helps me learn so quickly and easily! one thing that id like to know is do you do a rough sketch with dimensions then put it into a cad drawing?

[@RathaSochenda]

It really depends but normally I do use an analog approach first before jumping into CAD. I normally try to get concept out on a whiteboard with rough dimensions. And then when I feel like I have enough info and the design makes sense I jump into SolidWorks to model it all out.

[@jacobpace4716]

@@RathaSochenda absolutely! Thanks for the insight and taking the time to reply :) your an absolute wizard mate

[@WafiyTahir]

Thats probably the greatest weldment tutorial for Solidworks on youtube. Great work man. Btw how do you set your Solidworks background? (dark corner on the edges & bright in the middle) Did you put an image as the background? If so, can help to share the picture? Thanks!

[@RathaSochenda]

Yeah it’s custom. Shoot me an email via my website and I’ll send over the background and some instructions to set it in SW

[@ianhoffman3891]

Is that template for your drawing still available?

[@RathaSochenda]

Unfortunately not anymore

[@Wellingtonasjr]

I am struggling with how to get rid of the number in () at the end of the description of each item.

[@RathaSochenda]

Keep at it you got it

[@Codysooz]

why not utilize save bodies command? or select bodies when inserting a drawing view on the drawing.

[@RathaSochenda]

🤔

[@douglasnartey5787]

Hi Ratha, how did you create the table? Weldment or Assembly?

[@RathaSochenda]

All using weldments

[@RathaSochenda]

go check my other video kzbin.info/www/bejne/nXXWe4mgeMqCaqc&ab_channel=RathaSochenda

[@paulchaput]

hi! can you upload the template? thanks! great video btw

[@RathaSochenda]

Thanks. Let me find it

[@Skurvagis]

how the hell you fill the weldment cut list table with data?????? I have an empty one

[@christianocasio556]

is your part a weldment profile or parts combined in an assembly?

[@fattox4189]

The bit at the end with plate width/length/thickness is exactly what I was looking at, so now can automate some of my work. I would love to know how to output data from the weldment selection (I.e. when I select the subsection like "equal angle" or "circular tube") so that I can have a table column that is called "profile type" and then it returns the choice from the weldment selection. Similarly with sizing would be great

[@jimmyshomaker8245]

Did you ever put a link to your template up? I mean...you could probably make a good living just designing them for others. I hate that kind of work...because I am LAZY!!!

I took it down
