\nFrom time to time, you’ll likely come across an image of something you
\nwant to create a 3D model from. With SolidWorks, you can use the sketch
\npicture tool to import an image to build from. This Kebo bottle opener by Rush Product Design Studio<\/a> makes for a great example, and we’ll use it in this weeks tutorial from SolidWize<\/a>.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

By bringing the picture into a sketch, you can quickly reproduce the
\ndesired geometry inside of SolidWorks using just a few lines, arcs, and
\nthe fully define sketch tool. <\/p>\n

Watch the full tutorial below. If you right click and save the picture
\nof the Kebo, you’ll be able to follow along. You can also download the
\ncompleted model from the Solidwize Shapeways page.<\/a><\/p>\n
