Hello, I'm looking for a tutorial or a method to make a design in SolidWorks of the "skeleton" method

I have never used this method I specify

 

Thank you

Hello

What exactly is the "Skeleton" method?

To work from a reference sketch?

Or make an assembly in context?

Hello

The skeleton method consists of designing from a 3D sketch of an assembly defined with variables that we will be able to control. The parts will then be created in relation to the 3D sketch of the assembly. So when we act on the variables, it will modify the 3D sketch, which will modify the parts accordingly. 

 

See for example this video which explains things well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSzK2ow9HQc

Thank you for the answers, I had found this video but I can't go further with another model for example.

I use the skeleton for mechanically welded assemblies already but with an assembly I find little except this video.

Hello

Can you tell us where you are blocking because for the moment it will be difficult to help you if you don't give us more information.

Have you read the second part https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-qViam3fkg which concerns the assembly itself which will be made from the skeleton of the previous video.

Can you post your assembly with all the parts???

Kind regards
