slurped Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Hello. I've to design a mechanism similar to the one that a dump truck uses. I'm a bit clueless about how to turn my sketch (I've the image) into an assembly. Here is the link to the sketch (SLDPRT) that I've done: https://mega.co.nz/#!3oRj3axB!9bi95ieEnAmpNVBML0Ud2FuapOgRDJCNUorhdVzgBmA . Can anyone help me? Thank you very much.

JD Mather Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Can you zip and attach your file(s) here? What version of SolidWorks are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the link is on the post but I'll upload it here anyway. Thank you so much. Sketch.rar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted May 27, 2014 Share Posted May 27, 2014 zip is not rar. I would have to download a 3rd party software to extract rar. As already indicated - I avoid anything that might dirty my machine. Windows OS will create and extract *.zip files. In Windows Explorer right click on filename and select Sent to Compressed (zipped) folder. You also did not follow my instructions to state what version of SolidWorks you are using. This is critical information as the files are not backwards compatible. Good luck with your project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
