In this tutorial, we’ll insert a freeform face from SurfaceWorks into a SolidWorks part. The new face will be tangent to the planar SolidWorks face that surrounds it, and durably attached to the SolidWorks edges. The part will end up being a drop-in tub. Concept and Function introductions: Select boundaries bottom, right, top, left to match TBS spreadsheet, Shaping a Tangent Boundary Surface via its control sliders, and via the Control Values spreadsheet. SurfaceWorks>Add SurfaceWorks Parents, SurfaceWorks>Manage SurfaceWorks Parents. Again, since some of you may be rather new to SolidWorks as well as to SurfaceWorks, we include step-by-step instructions for both the SurfaceWorks and the SolidWorks parts of the tutorial modeling. (If you are an old hand at SolidWorks, please bear with the details for newer users. Thanks!). Add SurfaceWorks Parents. The geometry we will take into SurfaceWorks is the narrow upper face of Boss- Extrude1, which surrounds the Base-Extrude. In SurfaceWorks, we will make a freeform surface that spans the area inside the inner edges of this narrow face, then we’ll bring that surface into SolidWorks and cut with it, thus creating the new freeform face. In the graphic window, reselect the curves: click the bottom inner edge, then Ctrl+click in order, the inner edge on the right, the top, and the left. (When you change bounding curves, continuity for the first and third edges is set back to G0 — the curves in these positions are different from before. The curves in the second and fourth positions happen to be the same ones as before, so they keep their G1 continuity assignment.)
