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.
