What do you like best about Woodwork for Inventor?

I can choose many ways to build complicated model. I can use skeleton modelling technique or just use mates, or both hybrid technique. User friendly interface, you will see all action on screen, visually you can see realistic model or wireframe. you can render your product and use FEA for some critical parts without exporting 3d model some other software.

What do you dislike about Woodwork for Inventor?

Building own hardware Library is time consuming even if you get downloadable model from Hafele you need to deal with data translation to own language and chose what information goes to part nr , and what goes Description. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Woodwork for Inventor:

Inventor allows to create very complicated 3D models for bended pipes, freeform bodies, soft furniture. You can make movable assemblies and generate drawings from these models. At the same time, you can create rectangular parts but this simple solid is without material information. Woowork for Inventor divides this solid into 6 faces and there are good tools to give material information for these 6 faces, and you can choose grain direction for that. So when you make BOM then you exactly know how many meters you need Edgeband and how many m2 you need veneer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
