Love these practice videos Toby, thank you for making it a joy to learn this CAD system.

Another great tutorial! The most interesting takeaway for me is seeing that you can fully define an arc with a known radius by making it end-point tangent to a defined horizontal line and specifying a horizontal dimension for the center...no vertical dimension needed. Cool!

Great job TTT! 👌 I like your explanation on how to model a part like this especially for beginners! 👍

Using Onshape, I think this part is appropriate for a main sketch driving most of the shape. Later you won't have to find which sketch is driving which feature of the part if a client request changes.

1st time. 34min. In SW. I think I would be faster in Onshape but i'm trying to learn SW. I don't know if I agree this is a tier 5 because there are way more difficult challenges in my opinion but again great training.

Mass = 1490.01 grams

Volume = 191027.51 cubic millimeters

Surface area = 52016.64 square millimeters

Great video and break down for planning the part.
I can only image a Tier10 project part that includes a 'configurable' part that has 5 different states. im just getting into Configurations on OnShape. Takes Variables to the next level.

I cant select the face of sketch 3 at 8:54

Nice place to use the Thin Extrude Feature !
