Is it so difficult to use Solid works 3D CAD software ????

For this entry, I would like to talk about Solid works. I believe most of engineering background out there will know this software. Basically it is CAD software for 3D design and able to perform some simple analysis. Similar software as Solid works in the market are Creo Element (Previouly called Pro/Engineer), Autodesk Inventor, Unigraphic and etc.

As for my work, this is our main software to create our product design. In previous company, I was using Pro/Engineer and Creo Elements. Both software have their pro and cons. But, I m still tend to love Creo more than Solidworks especially when dealing with surface modelling creation and also in assembly design.

I'm still remember the second week after join my current company, my boss ask me to modify the current 3D design due to tooling problem and it must be done on the same day. At that time, I'm still learning on how to use the function inside Solid works. At some point, I was like totally wanna give up as too many thing are unclear and my boss kept on calling me to send latest 3D to our supplier. Finally, I am able to complete within the same day and the method to modify it is totally sucks. I am using Pro/Engineer method and the steps are seriously longer then I expected.

But that one is old story. Haha. I already use this Solid works almost 2 years and believe me, its not that hard. Some function are totally brilliant and useful.

Below here is my personal project. Done it when I have a free time. This is my second car. The first one is quite ugly so I think its better not to show it. Haha.

I am one of the petrol-head and really love beautiful car. And being able to make it one by myself is truly satisfaction.

Those orange-white sport rim is my favorite. It takes less than 30 hour to complete this car and most of the steps are done based on surface modelling method. I know its not yet completed especially the interior parts but who careeeee....this is my car..haha...enjoy it....

Actually if you all want to learn how to use Solid works, there are lot of tutorials inside the Youtube and thanks to all of them for their contribution without taking any fees..Adiosssss
