The book follows step by step operations that make it a very comfortable learning experience. As I progressed I was amazed how quickly I was executing complicated directions and modeling complex parts/assemblies. Also, I highly recommend downloading the online content. This allows you to follow the step by step directions being explained through screenshots and directions in the text. This book is a great supplement to a
Each chapter is arranged so that it builds upon the skills and commands covered in the chapters before, beginning with an introduction to the software and the basics of navigating the user interface. Using a combination of short, command-focused exercises and longer, more involved tutorial files, you will find this a valuable tool for establishing a solid foundation in SolidWorks and then, once you have mastered that, for fine tuning your skills.. Coverage then progresses to creating sketches, then creating part files, and finally, creating assemblies. Take a step-by-step, guided tou
