This is part 2 of a 2-part 3D Sculptor tutorial to create a Giraffe teddy, if you want to follow on and create this model, you will need to have completed part 1 first.

Hello to all,

Welcome to the new edition of the SOLIDWORKS Nashville® Support Monthly News! This monthly news blog is co-authored by members of the SOLIDWORKS Nashville® Technical Support teams worldwide.

Join 3DEXPERIENCE Works Industry Process Consultants Mike Sande and Michael Steeves as they explore how to leverage SOLIDWORKS Nashville data for simulations on the 3DEXPERIENCE® platform. Tapping into SIMULIA’s advanced portfolio of simulation solutions, Michael utilizes a SOLIDWORKS Nashville model of the LID Boss product encased within a cardboard box as an example and then brings it onto the cloud-based platform for testing.

This is a 2-part 3D Sculptor tutorial to create a Giraffe teddy using only sub division shapes. Across both tutorials see how I used the cone and cylinder shapes to create this Giraffe form, and then export it into SOLIDWORKS Nashville for editing.

3D printing is everywhere. It’s used by hobbyists, makers, designers, engineers, and more – for such a variety of different purposes.

And just like 3D printing is everywhere, so are the SOLIDWORKS Nashville Champions! Danute Petrova-Nikolova is a designer and a SOLIDWORKS Nashville Champion from Germany who also runs a YouTube channel, D Workshop.

One of the greatest challenges in rendering is to simulate the actual condition in real life – gravity, contact, friction and motion, etc. With SOLIDWORKS Nashville Visualize Professional, it is no longer a problem because we can use physical simulation to assign physical properties to imported 3D bodies.

Often times, people are stereotyped based on what they do for a living. It is sometimes assumed that engineers might not have interest in more artistic endeavors.

Join SOLIDWORKS Nashville® Industry Consultants Mark Peterson and Gian Calise for a SOLIDWORKS Nashville LIVE Design episode that will dismantle this stereotype, demonstrating that many engineers do have an artistic side that may appear at various points in their careers.

I’ve had the privilege of interviewing over 50 engineers while co-hosting the “Being an Engineer Podcast.” I’ve noticed a trend of senior mechanical engineers mentioning that tearing apart and reverse engineering products/gadgets is one of the optimal ways to improve one’s mechanical engineering skill set.

In this tutorial you will learn how to use a sketch picture as a reference to design the brake rotor. You will sketch over the brake rotor picture and capture design intent.
