2D representation of a 3D part or assemby:

Communicate the shape of an object

To force or push out an object or feature:

A rounding of an interior or exterior corner of a part design.

If you begin a part on the front plane, which axis usually gives the object depth or thickness?

Flat construction geometry that extends out in all directions:

Extruding, extending, or lofting an object. Feature that creates the base of a part, or adds material to a part, by extruding, revolving, sweeping, or lofting a sketch, or by thickening a surface.

The first feature created for a part, usually a protrusion. First solid feature of a part, created by a boss.

A straight line that can be used to create model geometry, features, or patterns:

Which lines on a drawing should be the thickest?

A single outside boundary of a feature:

What are the three standard views we show on our drawings?

Creates a circular pattern using the feature you select as the seed feature:

To create one or more curves in a sketch by projecting an edge, loop, face, curve, or external sketch contour, set of edges, or set of sketch curves onto the sketch plane.

A group of machined or handmade parts that fit together to form a self-contained unit:

An internal rounding of a corner or edge in a sketch, or an edge on a surface or solid:

A method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions in technical and engineering drawings. It is an axonometric projection in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angles between any two of them are 120 degrees

Updates (or regenerates) the document with any changes made since the last time the model was rebuilt. Rebuild is typically used after changing a model dimension:

View that lets you look at the assembly as if you took a saw and cut it open

Three standard drawing views

The drawing units in Solid Works can be changed from metric sizes to inches.
