Freecad Reverse Engineering - from STL to Solid body

The Savvy Engineer
in Modeling
3 1 Beginner
Learning FreeCAD reverse engineering by converting an STL file format to a solid body is an essential skill for anyone interested in product design, 3D modeling, or manufacturing. This process allows you to transform mesh-based 3D scans or downloaded models into editable, parametric solid models that can be refined, modified, or reproduced accurately. It bridges the gap between raw 3D data and professional design work.

SolidWorks | How to Cut a Solid With a Surface Like a Pro

The Savvy Engineer

1 0 Beginner
Learning how to cut a solid with a surface in SolidWorks is a vital skill for anyone looking to move beyond basic modeling into more advanced design techniques. This feature is especially useful in creating complex and precise geometries that cannot be achieved with standard sketch-based cuts. Unlike simple extrusions or revolves, cutting with a surface allows you to shape a solid body using freeform, lofted, or imported surfaces, giving you far greater design flexibility. One of the main reasons to master this technique is its importance in product design and engineering. Real-world parts often have irregular shapes, smooth transitions, or curved surfaces that need to be cut into a solid model. For instance, in automotive and aerospace industries, many components have aerodynamic surfaces that cannot be represented with standard sketches. Knowing how to use a surface as a cutting tool makes it possible to achieve the required level of precision and realism. Another key benefit is that it enhances your problem-solving capabilities within SolidWorks. Sometimes, a design cannot be modified easily with traditional cut features due to geometric restrictions. Using a surface cut lets you bypass these limitations, making it a powerful tool for tackling complex modeling challenges. Additionally, this skill is highly valuable in collaborative environments where models may be exchanged between different CAD systems. Imported geometry often comes in the form of surfaces, and being able to use those surfaces to trim or cut solids ensures seamless integration and modification of external data. In short, learning how to cut a solid with a surface in SolidWorks equips you with the ability to design more complex, functional, and aesthetically refined parts. It not only expands your modeling toolbox but also prepares you to handle real-world design challenges with greater efficiency and creativity.

Super hack to create hollow objects for 3d printing in Rhino

Bobi
in Modeling
0 0 Beginner
This is a quite easy “hack” how to create hollow objects that are usually not allowed by other CAD programs. Great for 3d printing. Simply connect the outer and inner objects via some random pipe or box, then join everything and untrim the hole that connects them with the ! _Untrim tool. You will notice that the two original separate objects now appear as a single object instead, despite the lack of an actual connection in-between. An alternative way is to select both objects and use the following commands: NonManifoldMerge, then CreateRegions, then delete the region you do not want, such like the core inside the sphere in this particular example.
