What you'll learn:
- By the end of the course students will be able to confidently use Solidworks to produce a whole range of 3D CAD models. All of the basic features will be covered using real-world examples
- Understand Solidworks 2018 within a wider context of use, including areas such as 3D printing, molding and general manufacture.
Progressfrom complete beginner to Solidworks 2018 master in one single course!
Solidworks is one of the most popular and powerful 3DCAD programs in the world. Millions of people use it to design everything from 3D-printed toys allthe way up to fully-working mechanical vehicles. Now you can join the ranks of Solidworks users, and learn to create your own models completely from scratch!
Why this course is different
There are many Solidworks courses online, but none quite like this one:
We use real world examples during learning! This allows you to relate to your lessons more easily and so remember and understand them better!
Taught by a Solidworks professional! The instructorbeen using Solidworks since 2006 and even taken a range of official Solidworks-certified training courses. The instructorcurrently works as a Product Design Engineer and uses Solidworks every day to design all sorts of things for real clients - no academic-only experience here!
No prior knowledge needed.This course is designed to take you from having never used any CADprogram before to being able to model almost anything you can imagine!
Understand the wider context of CAD use. As well as explaining the basic CAD techniques this course also details how they relate to real world uses, such as 3D Printing and injection molding.

You will learn
Over the course of twelve detailed modelling you'll learn the entire range of Solidworks skills, including:
Circuitboard - Solidworks Basics, Sketching, Extrudes and Cuts
Pencil - Multi-Body Parts, Revolved Boss/Base and Cuts
Pencil Sharpener - Assemblies
Headphones - Swept Boss/Base, Splines and 3D Sketches
Coke Bottle - Swept Cuts, Helixes and Threads
Computer Mouse - Lofted Boss/Base and Splitting Parts
Key Fob - Modelling from Photographs
Lego Figure - More Complex Assemblies and Advanced Mates
Drawer Box - Configurations and Drawings
Raspberry Pi Enclosure - Importing Parts and Draft Angles
Bicycle Fork - 3D Curves and Sweeps
Gamepad Controller - Ribs and an Entire Recap of the Earlier Techniques
Course Conclusion and Future Learning!
The course is taught using Solidworks 2018 but the models and resources used will work with any version newer than that. If you have a previous version (2015-2017, or earlier) then my earlier course - "Master Solidworks 2015 3D CAD using real-world examples" will be more helpful!
The techniques used are also common to many different CAD programs - so you can learn on Solidworks then easily transfer these skills if needed.
So sign up today, and begin your first steps in the exciting world of 3D modelling!
