Lars,

I just wanted to make clear that in this example I am not deriving a part, I am deriving a sketch in a part. You can add additional features to the body created from the derived sketch.

When deriving a part, you can add new features to it too.

Thanks for the comment!

Great post, and nice model. Would be nice if you could brake the link to the original and start adding new stuff to your derived part.

Yes, they can be very useful! I had forgotten about them until a SolidWorks class I recently took…

I have had several instances here in the last few months where I was actually copying and pasting sketches and having to reconstrain everything. When this came up in the class, I wanted to bang my head on the table!

I have found Derived sketches are a great shortcut for creating the same geometry on a parallel surface in a different location. Thanks for the tip to remind us of this underused tool
