Hi,
I've been playing with solidworks (2004) for a few weeks and have completed every tutorial it comes with, plus some off the web, several times over. I thought it was time to try it out for myself to see if it was going to be any good for what I actually want.... and immediately I have come unstuck! I cant seem to grasp the "approach" rather than the tools more than anything. My first project is to produce wheels for a car I am designing, these wheels have a round center part inset from the outside edge of the outer, and then 16 spokes attaching the center to the rim - an example of them (not identical but close enough) can be seen here

I really dont know where to start and would appreciate anyones thoughts on the sequence to produce these and ANY advice on working out processes in general!
Many Thanks.
