Creating the Tooling Assembly

Now create an assembly containing the tooling parts.

  1. Click File > Make Assembly from Part.
  2. Click View > Hide/Show > Origins to show the origin.
  3. In the Begin Assembly PropertyManager, click .
  4. Under Part/Assembly to Insert, select MyTelephone-Core and drop it on the origin in the graphics area.
  5. Repeat step 4 for MyTelephone-Cavity.
  6. Click to close the PropertyManager.
    The two tooling parts are now components of the assembly, with external references to MyTelephone.SLDPRT. You can add other supporting hardware, create mates, and so on. Changes to the telephone handset model are automatically reflected in the tooling parts in the assembly.

Congratulations! You have completed this tutorial.
