Part 1: Laying the Groundwork
Chapter 1: Understanding Basic Concepts

Here I am, posting my 1st official “book review” on Matt Lombard’s SolidWorks Surfacing and Complex Shape Modeling Bible and I am already late on my goal of 1 chapter a week that I set for myself in my post a couple of weeks ago titled The Day I Have Been Waiting For! I guess enough wasting time and lets get started:

The first section in the book is titled Understanding Basic Concepts. This 1st chapter gives a great idea of what is expected of the readers before they even get too deep into the book. This was great for myself to know right away what I could expect later on in the book and to find out what was expected of me. Lucky enough for me I own Matt’s other book SolidWorks 2007 Bible which I think will be a huge asset if I am struggling with a particular area that he is talking about.

I personally feel that this book is going to be a great learning tool and reference source for me later on. Currently I do not have a deep knowledge of the surfacing area inside of SolidWorks but I want to learn and I feel that this is will be a wonderful resource for me. If you are in a similar situation that I am do not get scared off from purchasing this book. I believe that anyone that has a desire to learn the software will be able to with the way that Matt writes. In closing I am really looking forward to the rest of this book and I look forward to letting you know as I go through it what I am learning and what the book as to offer so stay tuned! Hopefully the next review of the book won’t be as far off on timing as this one!
