Welcome to Lesson 8 of the SolidWorks x LEGO - Build & Learn series! In this lesson, we explore some neat tricks for speed and efficiency in SolidWorks while modeling LEGO parts.
Here’s what we’ll cover:
• Reusing configurations to create new parts quickly.
• Splitting and editing sketches to simplify and refine models.
• Advanced techniques like splitting, mirroring, and combining bodies for creative solutions.
By the end of this lesson, you’ll have a better understanding of how to work faster and smarter in SolidWorks, all while building your LEGO assembly. Let’s dive in!
