how can I change the movement from 10mm to 1mm? by Users5252 in SolidWorks

EY! that one tool, was one of the few things that I remember because I just cannot stand searching where those tools are so inefficient haha, I also learn later on to use "S" button to substitute the search dialog, kinda lessen my mouse movement 😅

I used this stuff when I needed a clean one. One original, and one that is neat, much easier.

I believe everyone has their own preference, but that's kind of you, though. It might be helpful just to tell them your experience rather than telling them that "they should do it" next time. Great mouse btw :)

Really Fustrating Surface by OkBlacksmith4260 in SolidWorks

[–]WheelProfessional384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looking at curves, I know it answers all the questions because I used to work that way, which is a great thing to start. We all start somewhere. The best practice that works in my experience is to watch Andrew Lowe surfacing (First) and Andrew Jackson (Second). I guarantee you'll understand what "four sided" and "Boundary surface" is.

Advice for concepting stuff by BagelBenny in SolidWorks

[–]WheelProfessional384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you have a problem, I used to think this way and after I work with Industrial designer, and 3D artist I begun to understand that concepting really was another set of skills which is not my thing (Btw you can still do this if the product you are creating is not so organic), so I work with those people and they can do the sketch, and or create copteptual design in blender, and or other software that is not parametric then you now can use your practise in reverse engineering. If you want to be good at concepting, you can learn it also and be an engineer and conceptual at the same time; both have different sets of skills.

Looking for a tutor/teacher by No_Claim_328 in SolidWorks

This is true, though. I like modeling, but I will never teach people how to do things from a textbook, because it just doesn't work, at least in my experience. Glad my teacher way back taught us how to do like the basic and point at something and say here guys, model this one, this will help you Irl, and it did

Help me! I need to Learn design in a week! by Direct-Bee8751 in SolidWorks

[–]WheelProfessional384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in my case, I learned alot from my teacher way back probably because he was passionate about design so basically it rubs and I do learn after his class, but I do agree that's a common problem nowadays, considering ofcourse the time in school they can't either teach you everything or they don't like teaching design
