Drawer frame: Front and back
- In this session we'll look at creating our drawer and there's a few components to this so we'll do this over a number of sessions. So let's head on over to SOLIDWORKS. I've already hidden the components we don't need. The planes we'll be using is Brace1 and Brace2, also the BackingThickness and the FrontFrameWidth, and the FrontFrameThickness so make sure those planes are visible. Head on over to the Skeletons and Edit component on the Skeleton Component, and then take the Brace1 and create a plane from it and let's define that at 3mm. So this is going to be our drawer height. And then for the drawer bottom, we'll just drag up another plane from this Brace2 position and at 3mm, and we'll do the same then for the FrontFrameWidth this time though this Distance we will make 15mm. So let's Enter to complete the command. And then for the depth of our drawer, we'll use the BackingThickness and make that a plane of 15mm distance. Now let's name these, so for the first plane we created…
