The book promises to make you understand and practice the SolidWorks framework. The aim of this book is to take you on a journey to all the phases of SolidWorks. SolidWorks is an innovative, next-generation industry software that allows you to solve and understand the designing and mechanical problems. SolidWorks uses a technical implementation approach for sketching, surfacing, and sheet metal drafting in an incremental and easy way. The main objective of this book is to make the reader understand the concepts of design based on practical knowledge rather than theoretical knowledge.
