Build a Parametric Clamp with Driving Sketches | Modeling Projects
Join Industrial Design Consultant Andrew Camardella as he builds a parametric mechanical screw clamp in Shapr3D. This tutorial shows how to set up strong relationships between parts so your designs stay connected and behave predictably when updated.
Learn how to use key tools:
• Driving sketches: Create fully defined sketches that control the geometry of your model and keep everything linked.
• Project tool: Reference geometry across sketches and bodies to maintain consistent connections.
• Constraints: Apply geometric constraints to manage how your parts move and interact.
• Extrude and Revolve tools: Turn your sketches into solid bodies to build the main components.
• Mirror and Align tools: Copy and position bodies with precision to complete the design.
• History sidebar: Edit and update your design steps while keeping relationships intact.
