Split Part Technique

Steps in this lesson:

Use the Split command to split individual parts from the master part.
Insert the individual parts into an assembly.
Check for the part associativity by changing a reference in the master part.

We recommend you save your work in folders named Base, Split, and Multibody to avoid confusion between techniques or the overwriting of documents.

Search 'Split Part Technique' in the SOLIDWORKS Knowledge Base.
