Intermediate Modeling Projects

Exploring Top Down Modeling

This set of multi-part projectsis perfect for beginners learning how to model assemblies using Onshape’s top-down approach. Each tutorial guides you through creating multiple interrelated parts within a single Part Studio, emphasizing shared geometry, linked dimensions, and coordinated design intent. This method helps you understand how to build assemblies that update intelligently and behave predictably when changes are made.
