New Boundary Surface Video

Submitted by on Wednesday, January 3, 200712 Comments

SpoonMark Biasotti has posted a really nice Boundary Surface Video Tutorial.  If you use surfacing at all, I highly recommend you check it out.  With Mark’s permission, I have made the model available for download here.

In the tutorial, Mark shows how powerful adding connectors can be within the Boundary Surface feature itself.  This is something I will definitely consider more in the future.

    Hello. I am Ken coming from Hong Kong. I was educated in Computer aided engineering and I have been working engineering industry for six years. it is the first time I reach your kindly Blog and I used to fall in love with solidworks before. Because my job which didn't need me to model the product(nearly all the modelling process has been moved in China…). So I stopped to develop my modelling skill for long long time…. Since I re-reach the soildwork offical web site, it is a shock for me that the soildwork2007 have been developed such crazy powerful. I tried to catch up the most updated model function inside soildwork. I found that the surface modelling have been greatly imporved (I remember that soildworks wasn't that powerful comparing with Pro-E in surface modelling).After I tried to use soildworks 2007. I found a bit refuse to detemine which surface modelling funtions should I use. (Sweep, loft, buondary suface, fill)
    The reason why I found difficult I used to learn in the CAD lesson…firstly we should know which kind of gemoetry could be satisfy to specific modelling function. Just like we provide 1 section with 1 or more guide curves then we can use “sweep”. Providing 2 indicated sections we should use “loft” and so on…. In soildwork 2007, the software have added many powerful options into a single function that make me confuse to determine which is the best function I can use. Is it possible to generate a simple table of function selection (just like what entity needed ,option selection and outcome) to show the user to learn about it?
    Beside, I found another power function is COSMOS(FEA). would you like to provide some tip in this blog?
    Best Wish and I would frequently read your kindly Blog.

    Hey great video link! I created a quick design of my own based on what I learned from the video, check out http://www.marksmedia.co.uk. Great blog site here Ricky!

    why is there a crease up the middle of the top of the spoon. Can you not set the surf perpendicular to the mirror plane?

    hey, thanks for posting this tutorial.
    it's so hard to find any good tutorials on the web. i know it's because people want to make a buck giving classes on these things. well, this little snippet showed me such a different approach to surface modeling that i think i will prolly take some classes now. see how that works out so nice! thanks again.
