Cool Stuff in Inventor?

Cool Stuff in Inventor?

Cool Stuff in Inventor?

(OP)
Hey,
I've been asked to go through inventor and find some essential stuff worthy of teaching in the class room. This is beyond your typical "this is a line", or "this is an extrusion." Just want to find some cool tips/tricks that inventor can do. Any Hints?

Thanks
JMc

RE: Cool Stuff in Inventor?

Driving constraints and creating actual mechanical motion is usually pretty impressive, AND fun to learn (kind of like a video game). You can then record into a video.

There was a great example of an operator with too much time on his hands....(AWESOME work though). It was posted on the Adesk discussion group called "IV is not a toy"

It is a large file (something like 8 MB). I can e-mail it if you don't find it.
