Convert Entities: One of the best time-saving tools in SOLIDWORKS, in fact, it’s said to be TriMech Application Engineer’s favorite. By converting entities, you can quickly create copies of model geometry in the current sketch ultimately saving you time. This tool can even be used for things like model edges or entire faces.

Patterning and mirrors are some of the best time-saving tools in SOLIDWORKS. With pattern and mirror, we can reuse the sketch geometry to spread across our part rather than manually creating the same sketch geometry over and over.

Copy / Paste: Use this just like you would any other copy/paste function in Windows. To copy and paste a sketch in SOLIDWORKS just preselect the sketch then hit copy and then choose the face or plane to locate the copy and then hit paste to add it.

Sketch plane: When editing the sketch plane, you can move your sketches from one plane to another. This is a great trick to know when you change your mind and decide that a sketch should be on a different face or plane. Simply edit the sketch plane to relocate the sketch instead of recreating it.

Sketch contours enable you to use contours from a sketch for multiple features. When using Sketch Contours, you are not limited to one sketch per feature. An entire sketch, or just pieces of it, can be used multiple times enabling you to quickly create many features.

For many designs, creating solid geometry with features like boss extrude and cut will get the job done. But for more complicated shapes, it's impossible to build with solid modeling techniques alone. These more complicated geometries will certainly require surfacing techniques. Although the shape might be complicated, the tools and techniques to produce it don’t have to be. The ruled surface is a versatile command and can create different kinds of surfaces. In this tutorial, we will go through the 5 types of ruled surfaces.

Today we are going to be showing you how to create a new view for showing different angles on a print. Sometimes you need to show an angle that is not a normal front, right top or asymmetric view. This is great for a 3D model and for drawings. The first thing you want to do is grab your part and rotate it around to a different angle.
