I am trying to teach myself new features of Solidworks Student 2014. I have made a wireframe from the side of a funky car and am not figuring out what I am doing wring with surfacing it. I can't get it to work. Any advice or help would be be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Can you post the surfaced model please? I am trying to learn more about surfacing.
I got it partially sirfaced, but have run into another problem, so any advice is still welcome! Here is the partially surfaced version. I am trying to get a smooth second half of the side panel surfaced and nothing I try is working.
OK, so I have the full panel surfaced now, but I can't figure out how to make the panels seamless. If you look, there is a seam where the panel doesn't look like one continuous rounded smooth entity. I saw a video about making 2 surfaces' curvature continuous, but I can't find that video and I'm not sure it's the same situation.
Please let me know if you knwo how to make this happen, I will be very greatful. Thanks!
I don't normally do surfacing but I'll give it try, be curious if
you can open this in a student version.
Thank you, Mark. I should have updated my posting. I think my problem was the middle curve. The top and bottom curves were adequate and then I use the vertical connecting curves to define the shape. Is that what you did too?
At any rate, yes, the student version opens models just like the paid version. I'm not suret there are any differeces between the two other than not having toolbox or photorealistic rendering. But I use Keyhot for that.
Thank you!
