Hello! This is a great video tutorial, you made the process very understandable. Are you willing to share the assembly files? Thanks

Haha this is awesome, I was taught the basics of inventor at college, now I'm learning PTC creo at uni but Inventor is just so much more straightforward! Thank you for making this software available to students :)

hi i have a question...can u do an FEA on the assembly in inventor 2009??...i watched ur vid but i cant seem to do it in 2009...maybe im missing something.

@ulrickwester Honestly, I can't remember. If you could it would probably be in the Pro version not standard. Are you a student? If you are you should just download the new version from the student community (students.autodesk.com). I searched youtube and found a tutorial on it (search for "Simple FEA Newest ") which shows FEA in 2009. Not sure what version of 2009 he is running.

@ulrickwester

They didn't add that until 2010...take John's advice and get to 2011...2012 is out in a couple of weeks

Great job, thank you ! I've learnt a lot from your videos :D. I'll try do do some simulations in my projects at university.

@DQHUGO Thanks. I will be posting a new video next week on Autodesk Inventor Publisher.
