🎥 Join me live for the first of a new and regular SolidWorks livestream series.
These sessions are about real-world SolidWorks modelling, practical workflows, and answering your questions live — not polished tutorials or pre-scripted demos.
In this live SolidWorks session, we’ll take a deep dive into appearances and how to control them properly. We’ll cover how appearances work across faces, features, bodies, parts, and assemblies, what the copy-paste icons actually mean, and why appearances sometimes behave unpredictably.
💡 What to expect:
🔹How appearance hierarchy works in SolidWorks
🔹What each paste option controls when copying appearances
🔹How appearances behave in assemblies
🔹How to apply or replace appearances across multiple parts
🔹How to create custom appearances using colour and texture files
🔹Best practices to avoid messy appearance trees and performance issues
This stream is focused on practical modelling workflows — not rendering — and is suitable for beginner to intermediate SolidWorks users.
Live questions are welcome throughout the session.
📝 Ask questions in advance
If you’re part of the Fully Defined Skool community, you can post your questions in advance, and I’ll prioritise them during the stream. It’s where I share bonus lessons, project files, behind-the-scenes updates, and live session replays.

I’ll also take questions live from the YouTube chat during the session.
🚀 Who this stream is for
🔹SolidWorks beginners looking to understand *why* things are done
🔹Designers preparing for certifications (CSWA / CSWP)
🔹Anyone wanting to see a realistic SolidWorks workflow in action
If you’re learning SolidWorks and want to improve through real examples and discussion, you’re in the right place.

will be added after the conclusion of the live stream
