DISQUS

I've recommended SolidWorks educational versions to several students that need to do senior design projects. To get a design done within 1-2 semesters they typically need something that has a short learning curve and can be explained easily to other team members. In every case I've seen SolidWorks Educational version has performed well and given them portfolio material and experience they can use when looking for work after graduating. definitely recommended!

I'm wondering details. not just i did this, this and this, pow. but how did you know how to set things up, how to promote, which things created the best revenue. What did he spend hours researching that he can share so we don't have to.

Thanks Kierlee and Bruce. I had a great birthday!

And he also signs ball and kinda says it...sometimes

You rock my photo letter world, baby.

I can't stand it. He's so dang cute. hmmm. what is this inthe fridge. hmmm.

kinda crazy huh. His was always the face I associated with SolidWorks Corporate.

I hear ya, I've had some pretty late nights keeping up to date with stuff and creating content and thinking and testing! phew!! more coffee please!!

great review brian. You're right about SWIFT possibly affecting modeling practices. That's why it's going to be important for companies to have their processes lined out and proper training to occur. I think that in turn produces more mentors for new users and a larger knowledge base.

right on, I hear ya. I can see some of the blank looks now. Hopefully the wild, yet tamable, engineer will adapt to his new surroundings :) we use autocad as a punishment.

Hi Jeff, I was wondering if you thought the dissect feature would help you have fewer library features. It seems it might. It’s either doing a quick search or searching through files for a library feature. What do you think?

Hey Brian, looking forward to your post. I will be interested on your take about rolling it out to your users and what you think that will entail. We use Copy Options to distribute standard settings to everyone. Doing that has allowed us to flow from version to version with little affect on users adapting to interface changes or new shortcuts. We also have a couple documents for users to references.

Some will want to customize and if we find something that many people need we’ll add it. We have 11 full-time users, and quite a few consultants and offshore facilites that even use the same set-up.

Yeah, i saw this a while back too. very good marketing by SolidWorks I think. I wonder if they really got torimoto to say "ass" though. ha.

I've tried hard to stay away from Sudoku, but had to try this one out. dang!!!

This was so much fun. I think Sebastian even makes the alley look adorable.

what an awesome trip. he was so good. That song is perfect for him.

some fortunes are good, some are bad, some just let you know everything is gonna be allright. This is one of those.

ignore my gay pinchey finger thing. My eyeball still hurts.

Thanks. the cute ones are always the most dangerous.

just one other way I can think of, especially if you are using slots a lot is creating a Library feature. if set up correctly, by leaving out horizontal and vertical relations, you'll be able to drop it onto a part face oriented however you need it.

That is one chubby weed. I see he's sportin his "little g" diapers.

I wish I could sleep as much as him sometimes... like today... that would be nice.

That is so funny. He is so cute.
