Assemblies (NX, or otherwise)
When 1276 was in the robot building business, we operated almost exclusively off of napkin sketches and plywood prototypes. So, I never really learned to CAD, other than some pretty basic things.

I took a CAD class using NX6 last semester, and it was really really useful. Unfortunately, it stopped abruptly after drawings, and didn't delve at all into assemblies. I don't have access to SolidWorks or its lovely tutorials. Is there another source that could teach me about the right way to make assemblies. I'd prefer if it used NX, but I should be able to get a SolidWorks license when I get back on campus in two weeks.

So, long story short, where do I learn how to use/constrain assemblies properly?

Thanks!
