I'll be Assembling this Lego Kit live in Solidworks. https://youtube.com/live/BZLItSJ5xYU?feature=share You can follow along too by downloading and using the parts attached here. They will work in SolidWorks 2023 or newer. If you have any questions for me to answer during the stream, post below! Nearing 100 members now. I have a BIG launch coming soon, in partnership with another education platform. Keep an eye out

Already downloaded the parts and can't wait for the livestream, planning to follow along live! 🎉 I'd love it if you could touch on large assembly management, since that's something I really struggle with. Specifically: when I have a big assembly with nested subassemblies, mates often go inactive or start behaving weird, and I run into a bunch of errors trying to fix them. Any tips or best practices you have for keeping large assemblies stable would be super helpful! Thanks for putting this together — looking forward to learning a lot 🙌

@Chris Buerckner Thanks 🙏 looking forward to it tomorrow!
Learn Assemblies with the LEGO Motorcycle
Hi all, I've just finished splitting and posting the LEGO Motorcycle Assembly masterclass into a series of lessons to step through one at a time. The video content has been broken up, and each lesson description includes what you can expect to learn from participating. If you want to learn more about SolidWorks Assemblies, with ready-made files to use, this is the place. It was a fun assembly to complete, and reviewing it again now reminds me how fun it can be to build. I'll be picking up the next LEGO challenge in the 2nd half of the year! If you have suggestions, let me know. Hope you enjoy!

This is great Chris! Breaking the masterclass down into individual lessons makes it much more approachable for anyone looking to master complex assemblies. Can you try do motion study or Animation on Lego 3D models? I think that would be fun to watch:)

@Chris Buerckner Ooh okay Chris! No worries:)
Reverse engineering complex surface
Hi Chris! I have seen the notifications for the next Livestream Design + Q&A on 16th April! Currently I faced a challenge reverse engineering this part in Solidworks especially capturing those curved geometry accurately! Can you talk about this on your next livestream :)

No worries Chris! I hope you are doing well:) Looking forward to it on 30th April!
Real world Design work
I have some client work! I don't advertise, so it's a bit rare, but I've agreed to work with a previous client on a new product of theirs. Here is a quick example of how I'm using SolidWorks to set the foundations for the Product Design. If you like this and want to see more, let me know in the comments. I can keep you updated during the projects progression.

This project looks interesting! I am curious to know what are the end results that should be achieved with Solidworks!
What happened in the last week 22/02
Hey everyone - did you have a productive week? I was reasonably pleased with my progress. I finished editing the Appearances Masterclass and published that to YouTube - it's doing just ok so far. The livestream moved to Thursday night and went much better than expected, with a good amount of viewers and people jumping in the chat! Thanks if you were one of them. I felt comfortable with the 'live design' style, so I will keep it for a while. Other than those, I made some more progress on a freelance project and getting the SolidWorks Fundamentals book out to a few people for testing. If you are interested to learn more, send me a message. Looking forward to the week ahead and breaking down the LEGO Motorcycle assembly classes into smaller chunks.

Haha! I am currently working on my final year project with my colleague to prototype a robotic arm.... Some of the parts including base and joints are going to be 3D printed and it's my first time working on a real project involve 3D printing. I am just curious to know best practices for designing 3D models for 3D-printing and common design pitfalls to avoid:)
