The Part Design Workbench aims to provide tools for modelling complex solid parts and is based on a Feature editing methodology. It is intricately linked with the Sketcher Workbench.
Basic Workflow
The sketch is the building block for creating and editing solid parts. The workflow can be summarized by this: a sketch containing 2D geometry is created first, then a solid creation tool is used on the sketch. At the moment the available tools are Pad (which extrudes a sketch), Pocket (which creates a pocket on an existing solid) and Revolve (which creates a solid by revolving a sketch along an axis). More tools are planned in future releases.
The Tools
The Part Design tools are all located in the Part Design menu that appears when you load the Part Design module.
They include the Sketcher Workbench tools, since the Part Design module is so dependant on them.
