Sparking bottle finished



Finally, sparking bottle done!

I have learned so much about solidworks from this single bottle. Fist of all, define!!  it would be much better to define every single line before sketch the next, otherwise it could become quite a mess. I basically redraw the whole thing because my first sketch was so messed up and i just cannot fully define it. Secondly, relations! must be very careful with the relation between two entities, missing of one relation can make a difference for the whole part.

I have checked every dimension of my sketch, they are all the same with the drawing provided, but the part volume is still not the same with the drawing. I use 4mm for the part below the neck. and the part above is (28.5-18)/2=5.15mm, if I'm not wrong. unless i misunderstanding some of the dimensions.




Also, I was just  wondering why the edges of the knurl seem so not smooth, i thought there was something wrong with my sketch, but it turns out that it it just the matter of the image quality.



one more thing, I still cannot figure out why my delete button doesn't work. I have to right slick to complete the delete every time..so troublesome. I have checked the keyboard shortcuts settings but it seems all correct.


Anyway, start measuring the lego minifigure now
