Building the Pattern Features Sample Part (SolidWorks 2014)

In this Basic Tutorial of SolidWorks we will demonstrate the utilization of part modelling feature named Revolve and Pattern.
Revolve Feature is used when we want to create a solid by revolving a closed sketch profile through a specified angle and along an axis.
Pattern Feature is used when we want to replicate a feature. This can be one or two dimensional array of that feature.
The aforesaid features are utilized quite an often while designing parts. This tutorial is picked up from the default tutorials that comes up with the software. You can find its written version under Basic Techniques → Pattern Features
Following is the description that is mentioned in the original Tutorial..

In this lesson, you learn how to build the sample part used in the Pattern Features tutorial.

The steps include:

• Creating a revolved base feature
• Extruding a thin feature
• Shelling a part

In this section of lesson, you learn how to create a linear pattern and a circular pattern. A linear pattern is a one- or two-dimensional array of features. A circular pattern is a circular array of features.

The steps include:

• Creating an oblong cut
• Creating a linear pattern
• Creating a circular pattern
• Using an equation to drive the circular pattern
