Summary

In this chapter, we learned how to start the different types of SOLIDWORKS files, that is, parts, assemblies, and drawings. We also learned about the main components of the SOLIDWORKS interface, as well as the different measurement systems that are available and how to adjust them. These are the first steps we need to follow when we plan to use the software to make a project and its foundations.

In the next chapter, we will start working with SOLIDWORKS sketching. Sketching is the first step we need to take if we wish to build a 3D model.
