You could be TV host! As an inventor professional there is 90% things that I alredy know, but the way you present your videos is hilarious and allway enjoyable to watch. And yes there is always that something that I'm not familiar with, so thank you!!!

I like the chitter-chatter! It makes the video feel more alive and engaging, instead of a boring, monotone tutorial video!

Wow, this pretty much answered all the possible questions I could have about shrinkwrap and derive. Thankfully, we both have Inventor 2016, because I didn't know they hid shrinkwrap under the component tab!

Always the best information and very much appreciated!

Great tks, save a lot of time of my life looking and trying the options, great video..

Superb! Yes watched all the way through. I tried Shrinkwrap when it first came out & thought it was crap. Not tried it since but now been tasked with supplying small files to externals without our IP going out as well. Thanks very much. I'll do some experimenting. Jim

"ticky box" I'm going to use that from now on. Ha, thanks for all that you do!

Always a pleasure to listen and watch your tutorials !! :-)

this is great. love your tutorials and tips and tricks have made me improve 10000% my work . thanks man

Great tutorials easy to follow and fun better than all the other i've see which did help me get back in to Inventor (I'm EX NX boy)

Very good Neil.Makin that with out preparation is just fantastic!You are a natural.And see all ready 5365 subscribers!Francis

Thanks for explaining the differences in these.

Around 14 minutes, you mention that you need to make an unlocked view rep to exclude parts., however un-checking the associative button will allow you to do this whether the rep is locked or not. There is no need to open the model and make a new view rep unless you want it to be associative.

Great video, my only wish would be that you had covered the nested derived assemblies.

Thank you Sir. Appreciate: well explained (again like your other video clips)! I learnt all about it.

Thanks very much, this really does explain things very well.

First of all, I really like the way you narate your videos, thank you they are so helpfull, CAN YOU PLEASE tell me how you orbit so smoothly, so organic, its like you are actually graving the object, thanks!

Thanks, I really wondered about this issue. Entertaining speak👍

As allways a grrreat video! Really helpful, thnx a lot! 💪💪💪A thing I am getting across every now and then is the need to calculate the total paint area of the parts included in an assembly. Have seen that there are code-crackin-I-something solutions to that, but never got to really make it work.. May you have a better hands-on solution to calculate paint area for an assembly? Keep on with all your magnificent tutorials! 👊

I don't have the ability to test this at the moment but if you use level of detail to show what you need in a drawing, I would also shows view info under the drawing were I was expected to show info like material, scale title or show total mass which would be linked from the model level of detail but if you were to use view rep does it still reference that sort of info?

Awesome mate. Love that. Thank you very much.

Neil, if you don't break the link how do you put the new file into Vault without also adding to Vault all the original files and assembly?

niiiice. i use a 4th way because i didnt get the "taste" of those 3. :D i ad an empty part to the assy i want to "simplify" , that activate it go to modify and copy feature or object. and then click on stuff i wanto have there.

Very helpful, thank you

Neil, is there any way with any of the simplification methods to retain the mass properties (mass, CG, inertias) of the assembly in the simplified .ipt file? Thanks!

is this the same as saving a solidworks assembly as a part ? you cant do that in inventor?

Good job ..

Who would lock the default view? The default is unlocked view so you can use for everyday design. And if you need a special view then created one and lock.

Just tried this and my files have grown in size? would you happen to know why this has happened?

Is the audio corrupted for anyone else? I can hear the introduction music perfectly fine but his voice is all staticky

what is the song name

Thanks for the content, but please leave God out of it
