  • @roaddict4life You need to reference something when creating a plane. Even if its just one of the basic planes already in the model. For instance if you select the Top Plane you can create another plane offset from it a particular distance.

    Where would you look for a plane that doesn't have a reference to define it.

    Does that make sense?

  • I want to know that too. How can I create planes in an open space with nothing to reference?

  • @Gugguggug Could you elaborate on what you mean? In SolidWorks Drawing usually means detailing. John is doing all his work in this video in a part file.

  • would someone please show how to create a plane without referencing a drawing.
