WEBVTT 00:00:00.009 --> 00:00:02.160 As you work to make sure that your CAD models are 00:00:02.160 --> 00:00:04.750 good and you're learning how to check the quality of your own 00:00:05.039 --> 00:00:05.550 work, 00:00:05.719 --> 00:00:08.029 it's really valuable to know that there's 00:00:08.399 --> 00:00:09.630 a tool that can help you, 00:00:09.640 --> 00:00:13.310 and it's called the CAD Checker. And how do you get the CAD checker? 00:00:13.520 --> 00:00:13.640 Well, 00:00:13.760 --> 00:00:14.100 first of all, 00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:15.909 you come up here to the app store, 00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:17.350 and in the app store 00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:19.790 you type in the word "checker" 00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:22.040 and we see what comes up when we do that. 00:00:22.149 --> 00:00:25.479 There is the CAD Checker produced by the people who create Onshape. 00:00:25.870 --> 00:00:27.280 You can just click on this, 00:00:27.370 --> 00:00:29.530 get it downloaded into your Onshape. 00:00:29.569 --> 00:00:30.319 It's free. 00:00:30.610 --> 00:00:31.329 Once you do that, 00:00:31.370 --> 00:00:34.240 you see this little box down here called the CAD Checker. 00:00:34.450 --> 00:00:36.400 And one of the beauties of the CAD Checker 00:00:36.689 --> 00:00:41.919 is that there are two really important evaluations you can do with the self-check. 00:00:42.090 --> 00:00:44.919 You can compare your model properties to a reference. 00:00:45.250 --> 00:00:46.799 So, if I have provided you, 00:00:46.810 --> 00:00:47.500 for example, 00:00:47.549 --> 00:00:48.759 a solution file, 00:00:48.970 --> 00:00:50.279 you can type in the URL, 00:00:50.409 --> 00:00:51.049 not type in, 00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:53.119 you can paste in the URL right there, 00:00:53.415 --> 00:00:58.525 and then it will compare the two models. And I'm comparing my NES that 00:00:58.525 --> 00:01:02.235 I've been using in the videos to the NES that was used for all the drawings. 00:01:02.485 --> 00:01:03.634 And I can see that 00:01:03.884 --> 00:01:07.114 the two models compare beautifully because they're all 00:01:07.444 --> 00:01:09.235 green and it checks out as being 00:01:09.644 --> 00:01:09.995 correct. 00:01:10.165 --> 00:01:11.324 If any one of these were wrong, 00:01:11.364 --> 00:01:15.154 these would show up as red, we'd be able to go in and figure out what we need to work on. 00:01:15.444 --> 00:01:18.595 Now there's another part of the CAD Checker that's valuable 00:01:19.025 --> 00:01:20.834 and let's... 00:01:21.610 --> 00:01:23.080 How do I get out of this? 00:01:23.290 --> 00:01:24.720 Why is that not happening? 00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:26.595 There 00:01:26.595 --> 00:01:27.040 you go. 00:01:27.650 --> 00:01:27.710 I 00:01:27.710 --> 00:01:30.089 can click on the CAD Checker again, and when I click on 00:01:30.089 --> 00:01:33.529 the CAD Checker, I can come here and compare to best practices. 00:01:33.940 --> 00:01:33.959 Super, 00:01:33.970 --> 00:01:35.599 super valuable here, 00:01:35.849 --> 00:01:36.760 especially for 00:01:36.930 --> 00:01:38.040 a couple of things. 00:01:38.330 --> 00:01:39.160 Number one, 00:01:39.330 --> 00:01:42.209 you can look to see which features you're using that's helpful. 00:01:42.322 --> 00:01:42.862 OK, 00:01:42.992 --> 00:01:47.222 you can also look to see if your sketches are well defined or 00:01:47.513 --> 00:01:49.623 as we see right here in sketch number 6, 00:01:49.953 --> 00:01:50.862 under defined. 00:01:51.032 --> 00:01:53.432 We don't want to have any underdefined sketches and 00:01:53.432 --> 00:01:55.472 this goes and checks all of them for us. 00:01:55.553 --> 00:01:58.623 So, now we need to know. Now, we know we can go into sketch 6 00:01:58.833 --> 00:01:59.902 and make a fix. 00:02:00.193 --> 00:02:02.992 Also I know there's two parts in this particular Part Studio. 00:02:03.185 --> 00:02:05.975 And I really like that it's telling me that I've renamed all 00:02:05.975 --> 00:02:08.615 of my parts so that I'm not just having part 1, 00:02:08.695 --> 00:02:09.095 part 2, 00:02:09.175 --> 00:02:09.845 part 3. 00:02:10.136 --> 00:02:11.175 Use the CAD Checker, 00:02:11.216 --> 00:02:12.005 it's helpful, 00:02:12.455 --> 00:02:14.326 especially for seeing if you have any 00:02:14.535 --> 00:02:17.326 underdefined sketches that you need to go pay attention to. 00:02:17.496 --> 00:02:19.645 I suggest not turning in anything, 00:02:20.175 --> 00:02:20.445 in 00:02:20.455 --> 00:02:23.975 your workflow that has underdefined sketches.
