Pebble Form Using G3 Constraint in Solidworks 

this man is a treasure

I found your channel whilst looking for tips on resolving degenerate surfaces...and I'm really glad I did. Some real gems here. Thank you. I'm surprised to see points defined by "Distance" at 6:23 rather than by "Percentage". It's good that the points will retain their even distribution when a model change alters the lengths of these curves, but to anyone who didn't know how those points were created, it won't be obvious that they're evenly distributed. I wonder what SW would do if some well-meaning person rounded that 3.88277... to two or three decimal places to make it look more "intentional". I really would have expected SW to default to "Percentage" for evenly distributed points. There should, at the very least, be buttons to choose between distance and percentage when initially creating the points. I might ask my reseller to raise a ticket for this. Edit: I just tested the effect of altering the "Distance", hoping that SW (2022 SP5.0) might maintain the percentage of whatever the edited distance was, i.e. if the rounded down value equated to 32% instead of 33.33%, I had hoped that the 32% would be retained when the curve length changed, but it doesn't. SW converts it to an unintelligent fixed "Distance" along the curve. Any other points created at the same time, but not subsequently edited retain their even distribution relationship, so as you say, there IS something going on behind the scenes...but it's not quite smart enough yet.

Andrew Jackson. You did it again my man. Another awesome tutorial. I’m amazed with your knowledge on Solidworks. This is gold👏🏽

The end result is "fairly smooth" he says. Dude, it's way better than that! :)

Subscribed and liked really appreciate your content Andrew.

Good job Andrew

Sorry for comments all being similar, Andrew, but .... this video deserves the same as many, many of your previous videos ==> Great job man !!! + thks for sharing your knowledge to all

So nice

Thank you, King! :)

Great tutorial, could you explain why you used tangent to face in your boundary surface instead of the curvature to face? Since you were trying to get G3 I would have thought to use the curvature relation. thanks!

Hey Andrew, love the videos, always have some amazing techniques. I've pretty much exclusively done parametric modelling in my career but Rhino is something I've always wanted to sit down and learn. I'm curious, in your real-world work what does your workflow involve? i.e do you create these kinds of surface models in Rhino and port over to SW for detail design? My basic knowledge of Rhino is that these kinds of forms are much easier to create.
