Fillets

Objectives - Leaning how to build a sample part in the Fillet Features. To capture symmetry of a knob in the design process of the part. Building half of the sample part, then in the Fillet Features portion, mirroring the module to create the other half.

The steps include-

Using relations in sketches
adding draft angles to extruded features.

Mouse Gestures

Building block with dimensions, solely using mouse gestures & mouse gestures used.

Finished product with gif

I didn't make any changes to the mouse gestures because there was everything I needed already there to complete the cube.

Solid works 3D Sketching Tutorial

Objectives

Sketching relative to coordinate systems
Dimensioning in 3D space
Mirroring features

I started by drawing lines starting at the origin on the XY axis then the ZX axis. After, I dimensioned all the lines.

I then drew a circle on the right plane to do a sketch sweep. I created another circle on the 3D object and extruded it, to then make it into a linear pattern.
