Today we completed the assembly for the housing and learned more about the use of fillets. Up to this point, what has been your most favorite and least favorite feature to use within SolidWorks? Explain why.

Today I learned new vocabulary words. The new words are Typical Dimensions, Symmetry, Tolerance, and Bolt Circle. Typical Dimensions means all other similar dimensions are same as one marked “TYP” , eliminates repetitions of dimensions and entered after a dimension. Symmetry is when both sides are equal. Tolerance is the specified amount that a dimension is permitted to vary from the stated size. Bolt Circles is when 3 or more holes are positioned around a common center, abbreviation EQL SP follows quantity in local note. Also I learned how to read a blueprint, the measurement and the title block.
