This is the second part of a four-part tutorial series on how to optimize your manufacturing jigs & fixtures for 3D printing. Today, we'll go over what to do in each design pass as you're optimizing your part, including specific steps to do in your CAD package, your print-preparation tool, and if you're bold, your FEA package. Later installments of this series will deal with FDM material selection and post-processing for jigs & fixtures.

Hi everyone I made a design of elevator car frame in solidworks and can change the dimensions with vba macro userform. Macro runs on model opening and rebuild the model with new dimensions when clicking update button. Anybody can use the model who don't know anything about solidworks. Have a good day

Hi friends, welcome back to CADable. In this tutorial video we will learn about basics of SOLIDWORKS 2D DRAWING. I hope you like it. Here, I am using my previous 3d model (Practice Exercise 1) and its file is here: https://grabcad.com/library/practice-exercise-1-1 For making a 2d drawing, you need a 3d part, so i am using this model. Here, I have shown how to select sheet format, how to apply different drawing views from view palettes, how to apply automatic dimensions, how to apply manual dimensions, cross sections views, detailed views, isometric views, 3 standard views, dimensions with tolerances, basic, bilateral, symmetric, geometric tolerances etc. How to apply machining symbols, how to apply a text in 2d drawing. After creating the drawing, I have shown how to edit sheet format, applying a material, drawing name, title block, drawing name person etc. Lastly I have saved my drawing in PDF format and I also have checked page setup for printing the drawing. I hope you like it.
