It’s the time of year to be thinking about Autodesk University. And there’s a new promotion that you may want to take a look at if you’re not already registered - the AU 2008 Buddy Pass.

Now, if you are registered and looking for the Vault and Productstream classes, here are some that I highly recommend:

While working on this headset assembly last week it occurred to me that a good tip for working with derived parts was staring me in the face. I have a lofted surface that is used to shape the electronics package housing in this assembly. Not wanting to go through the motions of creating a surface like this again for the outer headset housing, it is far easier to use derive to do an associative copy of the face and then offset it for the material thickness of that part.

Have you ever wanted to include a parameter to the hole not such as the bolt circle diameter? This can all be done with regular Inventor tools today and will be associative so that when the bolt circle parameter updates, the hole note will update as well
