This tutorial assumes no prior experience with Solidworks.
When you load Solidworks you will see a dialog box like the one below.
Select "Part" to create a new design for a part.
The first operation is to create a brick. In the "Features" tab, select "Extruded Boss/Base."
This will open a view to select a plane for making a 2-D sketch. It doesn't matter which plane you select at this point.
The "Sketch" tab will automatically open and the program will go into a 2-D viewing mode. Various sketching tools are available. In this tutorial we will cover two of them.
