This lesson helped us create the candlestick by using such features as:
Creating a revolce feature
Creating a sweep
Creating an extruded cut with a draft angle
Objectives:
Creating an oblong cut
creating a linear pattern

3D Sketching
Using SOLIDWORKS, you can create 3D sketches. You use a 3D sketch as a sweep path, as a guide curve for a sweep or loft, as a centerline for a loft, or as one of the key entities in a routing system. A useful application of 3D sketching is designing routing systems.
This lesson introduces you to 3D sketching and describes the following concepts:
Sketching relative to coordinate systems
Dimensioning in 3D space
Mirroring features
