Hi!! I'm trying to make an aircraft (Boeing 777) for my university project...!

But I don't get alot of stuff in it including blending... I know blending is the most important thing...

    Amanullah..

    Blends are good for cross sections of wings, etc. But I'd also look into Variable Section Sweeps. We also call these "VSS". Over the years these have taken over quite a bit of the work we used to do with blends.

    I can give you a quickie tutorial on both blends and variable section sweeps... but I need to know what version of Creo or Pro/E you're working on. The steps are a bit different for the different versions. If I'm going to make a video, I need to know what version I should use for the demonstration.

    You'll have to do some experimentation on your own to become proficient but I can get you started.

    Thanks!

      Thanks!!
      Well as for the software i'm using Creo Parametric 1.0 School Edition..

      Wondering why theres a school version for university students, it should be a full version as there are more options available in it I guess ..

      Actually I believe the schools edition is a fully featured version, it is just limited to prevent you from using it to do production work. Maybe someone familiar with the Schools Edition can tell us exactly how it's limited... but I thought it printed watermarks across the drawings, etc. It's trying to prevent you from using it in a professional production environment.

      I'll look into Blends and VSS in Creo 1.0 and see if I can produce a quick video.

      Thanks!
