Disclosure:

DS SolidWorks provides me with a non-commercial license of SolidWorks Premium. They have also invited me to press events and conferences, such as SolidWorks World, free of charge and, at times, they have also provided for accomodations, some meals and transportation. I don't, however, receive any payment for blogging or instructions on what I should write about. Everything that I post in this blog is my own opinion and does not reflect or represent in any way the ideas of DS SolidWorks.

Hey there!   How is your Summer? Mine, so far, is just as I expected: hot and hectic. But I won’t complain. Instead, I’ve prepared a document with step-by-step instructions on how to make this pair of scissors that were used for one of the examples in my Easy Surfacing Techniques presentation.

I had made this model just for fun and wasn’t planning on using it in the blog, but I’ve got so many requests for instructions and files that I ended up writing a short tutorial for it.  Hope it’s useful for someone out there. The files were all made in SolidWorks 2010.

To download the files and pdf document, click on the following links. I’m also adding links to these documents in the downloads  page.

      Thanks for the comment, Pawel. Like I said before, this was done just for fun and to use it for a presentation. It is not accurate or intented for production. Sorry about that!

  • Seema:

    Hi, would it be possible for you to put the scissor files as solidworks 2009 files. I dont have 2010 and would like to do this tutorial. :(
    Thanks
    Seema

      Sorry, Seema. I wish I could, but ever since I upgraded to Windows 7 I can’t even run SolidWorks 2009 on my machine. I apologize for that.
