You put a short video on Linked In a few weeks ago with this model. I did it from those short videos. And now I found out you did a proper video about 3 years ago. Nice. Your examples are good, even for long-term SW users (over 20 years). Thank you for challenging my brain :)

[@learnsolidworks]

Yes, that was just a timelapse to provide a glimpse of the tutorial. I also included a link to the full video in that post. :)

Bravo! Nice technique and above all nice imagination!

Thanks! :)

I did it! Such a cool ring.

Thanks. How do you have a origin plane icon with diagonal line on it (time 0.18)?

[@LearnSolidWorkscom]

The Plane is greyed out in the Feature tree because it is hidden. The icon might look different in your SolidWorks version depending on your SolidWorks version.

[@kandasamyrajan]

@@LearnSolidWorkscom Thanks for the prompt reply. I have standard 2020 version.

Very high Cool Factor!
I believe that this, as cool as it looks, would be impossible to actually make. Don't get me wrong, though, *I Don't Care!* Although it would be cool.
I use an older version of SW (2015) and I found I had to "smack it around"* a little to get it to finally succeed, but I ultimately prevailed, and it came out perfect.
*it wasn't initially able to do the combine operation, but I figured out a way to help it succeed without compromising the shape.

[@LearnSolidWorkscom]

It’s easy to make with a 3D printer! :)

[@catkeys6911]

@@LearnSolidWorkscom Don't think so. This is 2 separate parts that interweave without contacting each other.

[@PJWZZ]

@@catkeys6911 that's true... but when the parts can move it's a fun baby rattle! ;) Otherwise you should add a couple of small support pillars indeed ;)

Hey Jan. I have a question for you. I don't know why but when I try to do the combine, SolidWorks say me "There's no solid after the operation Combine", and I don't why because I click Fillet and Move/Copy Body.
Thank you so much

[@PJWZZ]

Hi Daniel, based on your description it seems like your bodies are not solid. Make sure to double-check this in the Solid Bodies folder in the feature tree. Feel free to send me your SW file if you can't find the problem so I can take a look.
