Mill Forge
Makerspace
Our third meetup at Mill Forge Makerspace in Norwood — SOLIDWORKS training, networking, and dinner.
About This Meeting
Our third meetup at Mill Forge Makerspace featured two SOLIDWORKS-focused presentations: Jay Pinheiro (GoEngineer) took a deeper dive into some of SOLIDWORKS' lesser-known features, and Rachael Naoum (DS SolidWorks) covered the fundamentals for new and aspiring CAD modelers.
As always, the evening included networking, dinner, and a good excuse to talk shop in Mill Forge's shop.
Presentation Topics
A look at some of SOLIDWORKS' lesser-known features — Texture, Freeform, Deform, Indent, Flex, and Slicing — for expanding design capabilities beyond the everyday toolkit.
A beginner-friendly session on navigating the SOLIDWORKS interface, basic sketching concepts, and essential modeling features — from a fully defined sketch to a first sense of design intent.
