Hello SW community. I'm fairly new to surfacing with SW, but eager to learn! I'm modeling on a dust pan concept (for a school project) which looks something like the photo attached (the part is symmetrical along the middle). I've tried to model it using a loft and a boundary, but no luck yet. Does anyone have some insight on how to best model something like this or can point me to some tutorials that might help?
Thanks a ton Solidworks community!!
I challenge Jaja to help you!..
I like the idea even do im not a surface user but i'm out on my desk now for a two weeks so i do not have access to SW rigthnow so your the one i thought the first time i read this,
Here a shot first ever surface
Here comes a Q&D version of it, that I spent a few minutes on. Hope it helps in any way.
Always many ways to do something like this in SOLIDWORKS.
Nice - but looks like a cleaning weapon lol - don't get the cleaning lady mad
..hmm,.. I'm working on a cleaning weapon.. does this come close?
Is that taking my name in vain - hehhehe
Looks like the end of a baby bottle as well, we're past that stage - lol
Anything with my name on it - I want the model
"The Pacifier"... I LIKE IT!... so shall it be granted,.. with thy name on-ith.. and with thy divine request, ye shall have ye "The_Pacifier_Retro_Squirt_Ray_Gun-zxys.SLDPRT",...
Ohmeohmyoh - thank you PAUL - yes you Da Man
Wow! This looks great! Is there anyway to backsave it so I can see what you did? I have SW 2015
Here is a similar 2015 file.
this is from my solidworks book Mold design.
Great work
That was easy the model was done already. LOL
here is something I threw together also
Why make it difficult and attempt to do it with surfaces when you could simply model it solid and shell it to create the inside? (Unless this is a project for school that must be done using surfaces.)
I would use the solid features, but I'm unsure of how to model the middle bump that's shown in Ingvar Magnusson's drawing.
Thanks!
I played with sketch pictures
WOW!! Thank you everyone for your help! I looked at all the models and pieced something together!!! I first modeled the shape as a solid, offset surface (of zero) and finished the bump in the middle with surfacing. Thanks a ton everyone!!
Hehe you need Paul Salvador his a surfurer i mean surface wizard,
