Advanced Modelling Techniques - Surfacing
The video explores advanced surfacing and hybrid modelling techniques in SOLIDWORKS, showing how lofts, guide curves, tangency control and surface tools create complex forms such as boat hulls and paddle components. It demonstrates constructing organic shapes using lofted solids, composite curves and patched surfaces, then knitting and thickening them to form watertight solids. A hybrid workflow is shown through a bottle design that combines surface offsets, trimming and boundary surfaces with sophisticated fillet options and freeform manipulation. Visual evaluation tools like zebra stripes and curvature analysis support refining high‑quality, smooth geometry
