Todd Blacksher has been using SolidWorks since 2002, and has been a CSWP since 2005. He is the founder and President of the SolidWorks User Group of Nebraska (SwugOne), and is currently the SWUGN Representative for the Southern US.
Todd’s presentation will be: SOLIDWORKS . . . Saving TMCO Money
This is essentially a “Tips & Tricks” presentation with some of my favorite time-saving techniques that I use on a regular basis. The presentation is a brief overview of everything from Installation to Custom Properties to getting the most out of the User Interface to Sheet Metal to Sketching to . . . you name it. There is a wide variety of techniques from Beginner to Advanced, so everyone should learn something from this presentation, and hopefully have fun at the same time!
