T
he chapters of Part III detail the tools you need to
be familiar with in order to get the most from your
assemblies. Of these, Chapters 12 and 16 are my
favorites. These are loaded with best-practice suggestions
and tips for efficient workflow. Chapter 16, the in-context
chapter, is particularly important for SolidWorks users
from many different fields who need or want to make
parametric relations between parts. A lot of erroneous
information floats around the SolidWorks community on
this topic, and this chapter will help you cull the reliable
information.
