It means a lot to us that you subscribe to SolidSmack and we want to make sure your days are 100% fortified with a healthy dose of design, tech, cad and fab. We’re shutting down the feedburner feed however, so want to make sure you subscribe via Feedly with the new feed or through one…
Well, well, well. We had LOADS of feedback on the new SolidSmack site design we launched last month. Some liked it. Some hated it. And some wanted to see more cats. There’s no way we’re showing more cats… at least, not after the one above–dang that thing’s cute, with little angry Psy screaming at him…
It’s been a busy week. Despite all appearances, Josh and I have not (yet) stepped into an alternate dimension (only to be abducted by Jamie Farr space aliens…). Yes, we still occasionally record the odd something (emphasis on ‘odd’), but mostly we’ve been working on Other Stuff:
When the bluebonnets are dancing in the field and you feel a large antler near your spine, it’s best you not turn around. Simply put your headphones, tighten your belt on and scream, KICK IT.
Why, it looks like you’re enjoying your weekend. Spring hat, drink in your hand, veggie or steak kabob of your choice grilling on the hood of your neighbor’s car. If only life could be just a touch more exciting. May I introduce the SolidSmack Update? I may. KICK IT.
Like Adam OHern, I am very excited to announce that EvD Media is officially official. This joint effort between solidsmack, cadjunkie and engineer vs designer is bringing all the goodness of the design process to you in three glorious halves… err, sites.
The time has come. Like hot flaming liquid poured straight into a web server, pounded with a hambone made of lightning and set on the table for everyone to partake… the new SolidSmack site is LIVE. It’s about time also, the old site was kinda shiny lookin’ but had the content kickin’ factor of wadded…
Ahhgg!! the AGONY. It’s like I’ve been wearing the same pair or socks on my eyes for the past few years. The SolidSmack Logo, the fanciful one with three cubulars in the site header, yeah, that thing… is getting kicked to the far reaches of space. We’re coming upon a new year, and what better…
A couple months ago I went to Siemens PLMConx Event. It was a magical time filled with magical talk about PLM, Solid Edge, NX, curling irons, highlight techniques and ways to deal with split ends… I may be getting two events mixed up, but whatever the case, Mrs. Dora Smith was on the hunt to…
Well now, I hear some of you are in the mood for a really broad question with a very broad and generalized set of choices. EXCELLENT, I say! We’ve got just the question. Today, we’re wondering what topics about 3D, design and any combination of the two, interest you the most. Why? Because there’s an…
Yes, it’s true. We here at SolidSmack lover your comments. In fact we love them so much, in addition to providing reasonably sized delectables to tiny dogs, we keep the Disqus comment system updated… and apologize to people whose comments have been sitting in the Spam folder for three week. yeah, sorry about that. If…

If you don’t like logging into a Disqus profile, you can now just sign in using your Facebook account.…
Wondering what some of the most popular post on SolidSmack are? Me too. Here’s a rundown for the best of what SolidSmack has and am example of what you’ll see on this site.
Lou Gallo of SolidWorks Heard (twitter) has apparently recorded a recent phone conversation between us and has put it up online so that all my glean my mildly incoherent ramblings. I told my friend Alex Ruiz that my voice sounds like a conversation between Kermit the frog and miss piggy, but in actually, it sounds…
You may start to see some changes around the trusty ol’ SolidSmack site. For one, I’ve integrated the Disqus commenting system into the site. Sound fancy? It is, and it’s got some cool features that will make commenting 100% more fun than before. I’m using the Disqus commenting system for a few reasons, but mostly…
SolidSmack has been around for just over a year and I’m lovin’ every bit of every juicy 3D/Tech/Design/SolidWorks Tip post I put up, but last night in the wee hours of a foggy night I wondered, “What the heck do all the wonderful people that visit SolidSmack like (not like) about the site?” So, the…
Well everyone, look at that. We have completely plundered the riches of the web and have a big ol’ bag of incredibly useful tips and information. SolidSmack.com is officially one year old today. (See first post here.) You all are completely incredible and make this so much fun, I can’t even explain it. I seriously…
