A Beginner’s Guide to 3D Modeling is a project-based, straightforward introduction to computer-aided design (CAD). You’ll learn how to use Autodesk Fusion 360, the world’s most powerful free CAD software, to model gadgets, 3D print your designs, and create realistic images just like an engineering professional—with no experience required! 

SOLIDWORKS Exercises - Learn by Practicing (3rd Edition) book is designed to help engineers and designers interested in learning SOLIDWORKS by practicing 100 real-world mechanical models. This book does not simply provide step-by-step instructions to design 3D models, instead it is a practice book that challenges users to first analyze the drawings and then create the models using the powerful toolset of SOLIDWORKS. This approach helps users to enhance their design skills and take it to the next level. You can also access the video instrustion for creating each exercise of the book.

SOLIDWORKS 2023: A Power Guide for Beginners and Intermediate Users textbook has been designed for instructor-led courses as well as self-paced learning.

Topics covered

Engineers working with SOLIDWORKS are often faced with tedious, reitive work that can consume a lot of time, but it doesn’t have to be this way. One of the most exciting aspects of SOLIDWORKS is its robust programming interface or API. The SOLIDWORKS API allows you to write code that can perform almost any series of actions for you. SOLIDWORKS was built from the ground up to automate, and in this book, you will learn how to take advantage of these powerful tools to speed up your work.
