Now that we know how to define planes in different ways in terms of geometry, we can start learning how to define new planes in SOLIDWORKS. To illustrate this, we will create the following model:
Note that, in the preceding model, we have used two additional planes: Plane 1, which is in orange, and Plane 2, which is in purple. They are defined as follows
- Plane 1: Three Points (vertexes)
- Plane 2: Two parallel lines (edges) that come from the side extrusion
To create this model, we need to plan, sketch, and apply features. However, we will also create additional reference planes.
Our plan is to create the ...
