I know about that but that creates "WELDS" I want to create profiled assem like buggy frames.

I am learning Pro E 5.0 right now and have a question. Is there a feature in pro e for weldments like solidworks has. Or is there a way to do it similar. Lastly what is the best way to make a welded assembly life a gokart or bike frame in pro engineer. I am very used to solidworks and their...

thanks for the tips. I have redesign and now meet about 5 of them lol. I just made one in depth master model that I can change all of the things that I would need to. My devise will be usable on many different machines aka many different mounts. Then when I assembled it I just hid the master...

Question. Is their a way to say add only part of a part into your model. Like if I make a big master sketch but break it up in many smaller ones would this work. It would be much cleaner.

good point. I hide objects alot never thought of hiding sketches. I really like this way of building. Alot less problems when you do major design changes.

OK a few more questions. I built my whole linkage using one master sketch. All is well(really well). But I do have a few questions. When I wend to assembly all the parts I ended up with crap load of cluttered sketches. Its OK if I set them to lightweight or just don't even view sketches if I...

Weird, I checked everything over and nothing. Then I used the control Q and all of my models updated perfectly. Thanks a lot man. This is going to make my assemblies way more efficient. Especially since a lot of the parts with change totally but still have the same mounting locations. Thanks...

yes I did both. The master would update in the new part but it was like my references to it were none there. Then if I deleted the reference measurements and re added them they worked. I try it some more and see what I can do.

Ok so I made a master model. Or more a master 3d sketch and inserted it. Then built my parts off of it. All is well until I try to update the master model and none of the parts change but the master model does. All of my relations to the master model are still there but don't engage so to speak...

thanks a lot everyone. I used all of your advice and it worked. Also learned more about other solidworks features in the process. Thanks Again!

I have another question. I want to put a rod end into my Assembly. Been messing with it for awhile but I can figure out how to make the rod end rotate around the ball. Any advice on that. I include the CAD file I got from the...

bvanhiel - This sounds like a good way to do it. How do I use the master model to add references to the parts. Is is like using an external reference outside the part or something. I'm not exactly sure how to do this outside of assembly.

sorry it will be about 300. OK I try them both and see. Thanks!

Ok I trying to design and model a big project in solid works. To start with I know a few things. Where and how it will mount to an existing place on the truck. And where the wheels will touch. I need to design everything in between. I figured I should do this is Assembly mode so that everything...

ok and what about side to side clearance. Should it be the same.

its not a car its a dirt bike and I will be using a thick grease.

I want to make some suspension pivots on a project of mine using bronzed bushings. I am using 7/8" OD X 3/4" ID X 1/2" Long with a 1/8" flange. One on either side of each pivot. My question is what should the clearance tolerance be for the inside between the bushing and pin and the sides between...

I am designing a product for dirt bikes and I need to transfer the power from the front to the rear. I decided to use a shaft drive from a chain drive. My question is how do I find out how much power a gear can take. I want to use some kind of bevel gear as the ration is already set. It needs to...
