Intro: Twig

First you want to open a new document in SolidWorks.

STEP 1:

Now you want to double click PART.

STEP 2:

Now that you're in SolidWorks you want to click on front view.

STEP 3:

If you're not already in sketch mode press the sketch button in the upper left hand corner. After that you want to press the line button.

STEP 4:

You will want to draw a line.

STEP 5:

Make sure that all of the lines are the same length and would seem the measurements of a twig.

STEP 6:

Now add a line for where you want the curve of your twig to go.

STEP 7:

Now connect and proceed.

STEP 8:

You will want to press on the 3D-arc to enhance the curve.

STEP 9:

Once you've pressed the 3D-arc button you will want to make a curve at the tip.

STEP 10:

Now press 3D-arc again so that you can make a slight curve on the bottom.

STEP 11:

Adjust the curve that you would like.

STEP 12:

Now that you have everything to your needs, you will want to extrude. So press the extrude button.

STEP 13:

Make sure that you don't make the twig to thick... because no one likes a thick twig.

STEP 14:

This is what my twig looks like.

STEP 15:

End result.
