- [Voiceover] Hi, I'm Leon van den Heever
and welcome to motorcycle engine modeling in SolidWorks.
In this course, we will look at modeling various
motorcycle engine components, with the intent
of achieving a final assembly the same as we see
in this picture.
The goal of our project is to practice various
modeling techniques, better understand the commands
we use, and why we do things in a certain way.
We will do some basic equations, make use of configurations,
and finish up with some bottom-up assembly design.
We will start off at an easy pace, with the intent
of speeding things along a little to give you
practice at improving your modeling efficiency.
This project series is geared at intermediate users
of SolidWorks, and it is accepted that you have already
worked through the 2014 Essentials training
by Gabriel Corbett found at Lynda.com, and some
additional practice after will also help.
Now with that, let's get on with improving our
modeling skills in SolidWorks.
