Radial motor design is designed as mentioned below. We open Catia and enter the part desing menu first. And from here we enter the sketch at xy from the product tree. Then we make the skeleton drawings that we are seeing below in the direction of the given meter. We record every track we make under a specific file.

Fastest way of drawing car rims

Intermediate
Folow these steps to really quickly create awesome looking car rims for any car . Have on mind these rims won't match 1:1 scale because we will use pictures as references. Also these rims will only look good but won't be functional and usable for real life appliance. Only for renders. Goal of this tutorial is to create a good looking car rim as fast as possible.

I was asked how to make the my Ducati seat cowl in Catia. Unfortunately, I haven't worked in Catia for years, the model was made in Solidworks. Having worked in ProE, CATIA and Solidworks - though menu pics and verbiage may be different, they and other systems, are all capable of creating the same features with similar steps. I created a simplified PDF that shows the basic - steps taken to create this seat. These steps can be used as a frame work to design a wide variety of parts and on several CAD platforms. There are a lot of ways to do things, hopefully you find some of this useful. The model can be downloaded from GrabCAD. It is named: Ducati 996 / 998 Cafe Race Seat.
