Appendix C
What's on the Website

You can find and download the companion files from the Wiley website at www.wiley.com/go/mastersolidworks. The download materials consist of single zip files, one for each chapter. You will also find video tutorials, but I'll tell you more about them later in this appendix.

Extract the contents of the file to your hard drive in a location that is easy to access. The download material contains examples and tutorial parts, assemblies, and drawings, as well as templates, macros, and tables as appropriate for each chapter. The files are organized within folders for each chapter and are named for the chapter and the function they demonstrate. Some of the files are starting points for tutorials, and some are finished models meant to be examined.

If you make changes to files, I recommend that you use the Save As command (File ➢ Save As) and rename the altered file to keep the original file intact. You also can retrieve originals from the original...
