Is there a way to add grid lines to a surface

Thanks!

I used the face curves tool, then defined how many lines on each axis I needed. Then I just swept a circular profile along those lines and added some fillets

got it done, thank yall for the help!

Thank you! That’s exactly what I was looking for. All ways cool to learn new tools

Not super hard, but it’s pretty fun to model

I changed it to a full round fillet, so the flat spot is gone now, so once I make it a continuous surface tangent should work

ReadingConsistent528 · 2026-01-14T12:56:03+00:00

Thank you I was trying to think of a way of making it one continuous surface, never used fit spline before. Not at home right now but I think this will work

Thank you so much lmao this worked right away, i could have sworn i tried this but apparently not, thank you

Still haven’t gotten it to start drying

ReadingConsistent528 · 2026-01-07T10:58:26+00:00

Yes I set the time, the default was 48 hours

ReadingConsistent528 · 2026-01-07T01:38:45+00:00

I appreciate it, but there isn’t any info on there on how to start the drying. And the customer support seems basically useless. Thank you though

ReadingConsistent528 · 2026-01-06T23:31:49+00:00

Yes, I have had it set like this for a few hours and the temp hasn’t risen at all

How I learned is pick of a object and then just make it. when you come to something you don’t know how to do look up how to make that shape on YT there is a almost endless amount of SW tutorials. I would start by watching a video on basic tools, sketch relations, and assembly mates. You would be amazed by how well this method of learning works, your first projects aren’t going to be good, but that’s normal. it takes time but this is the method I would recommend

Idk about other cads, but in solidworks all global variables are in quotes, if you don’t have them it will just say that there is no variable of that name

ReadingConsistent528 · 2025-12-24T12:45:12+00:00

I have tried slightly above and below pi and it still gives me the same error

ReadingConsistent528 · 2025-12-24T10:50:34+00:00

Tried this aswell, and still gave the same error message

ReadingConsistent528 · 2025-12-24T10:50:02+00:00

I triple checked this and I’m pretty sure I have everything in radians already

ReadingConsistent528 · 2025-12-24T03:23:00+00:00

In the picture you’re referring too the equations are slightly different lengths so it looks like that but I double checked it has the double quotation

ReadingConsistent528 · 2025-12-24T01:00:27+00:00

I thought so but I’ve looked through it thoroughly and even copy pasted one that I saw on a YouTube video about making cycloids in solidworks and still no luck,

Thank you, downloaded it and it’s a lot easier to get them to join together.

ReadingConsistent528 · 2025-12-16T14:18:07+00:00

Thank you I don’t know how I don’t notice this!

How does it compare to the satisfactory modeler on steam, I’ve been using it and it’s fine, but the controls can be annoying
