On Solidworks, how do you draw a cubic part where none of the faces are parallel to the original planes in the assembly?
Or how do I use the surfaces of my part as drawing references?
Hello
You right-click on one of the sides of your coin and "Normal a". Then you do Space Bar and "new view". Then it is enough to name her.
See you.

Hello
There are several possibilities.
Either you redefine your front view in the 3D: position your 3D correctly so that on the screen, the orientation corresponds to what you want, which becomes the FACE view. Press the spacebar, then the 3rd icon "Update Standard Views and select the "FACE" button and finally click "yes". In 2D, you'll have consistent views.
Either you also orient your 3D to be "FACE" and when inserting the view into the 2D, you select the "In Progress" view.
Or, insert an isometric view first, then Insert/Drawing Views/Relative to Model. From there, you can define what you consider to be frontal, top, right,...
