Master Modeling in SolidWorks is a powerful way to create enclosures and plastic injection molded parts. One of the tools you'll use the most frequently is the Split Tool. Now usually, you'll use it to split up pieces of an enclosure, but it can be equally useful in dealing with imported geometry that you want to separate into multiple pieces.
SolidWorks Tools Used:
-Imported Geometry
-Split Tool
-Offset Surface
-Knit Surface
-Planar Surface
-Delete Hole/Delete Face
