NEWS: New Article in Model Engineers Workshop May 2026 Issue

I’ve got another article out in the May issue of Model Engineer & Workshop Magazine! 🗞️

It’s becoming a bit of a habit…

This is part one of a two-part series, where I share my top tips and tricks to help beginners (and more experienced users too) progress faster with the software.

Part one covers general approach and part modelling, while part two (out next month) will focus on part sketching, assemblies and 2D drawings.

You can purchase the issue here if you’re interested:

To go alongside the article, I’ve also put together a YouTube video running through these tips in practice, covering general usage and part modelling advice relevant to all versions of Alibre, including Atom3D, Design Professional and Design Expert:
