Surfacing With SolidWorks 13
This is chapter 13 of the course.
We will do the modeling exercise of a Hair Dryer, completely on surfaces, using the last tools learned so far.
You can download the SDPRT file from here:
HAIR DRYER - Surface Excercise
The best combination for this tutorial, is to download the file, open it in SW and follow the tutorial steps.
Don't miss the next chapters with more important surface modeling topics.

Step 1: Intoduction
This time we will make use of almost everything we have learned so far, but especially we will see the use of the Style Spline.
Please, go step by step and open the file in SW, it is very well documented and by itself is very explicit...
Enjoy!

Step 2: First PLanes & Sketches
As you can see, we are implementing the practice of renaming each sketch, each operation, etc. with names that help us to better understand the design process, and to quickly locate the operation in the FMDT.
