Beginner
Welcome back! In this video, we will model a "Shifter" part in SolidWorks 2024 based on the technical drawing Fig 6.39. This is a great exercise for engineering students to practice complex sketching, angled features, and proper dimensioning. Key Features used: Sketching & Relations Extruded Boss/Base & Cut Hole Wizard & Fillets 📥 Download the 3D Model & Drawing files here: https://grabcad.com/library/fig-6-39-shifter-1 If you find this video helpful, please hit the Like button and Subscribe for more engineering design content!

Beginner
Master the Replace Entity command in SOLIDWORKS and learn how to edit or replace sketch geometry—such as a line, arc, or spline—without breaking downstream features or references. In this step‑by‑step video, you’ll see how to: Replace one sketch entity with another while preserving feature history. Repair and manage sketch relations efficiently. Keep parametric design links stable when modifying geometry. Perfect for mechanical engineers, CAD designers, and anyone working with parametric models in SOLIDWORKS.
