Using The Trim Tool…
![Page 3: SolidWorks Mini Tutorials](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081505/56816413550346895dd5c474/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
To begin using the Trim tool you must first select which Plane you want to draw on. In this case it is the Front Plane.

To begin your sketch you must first select the sketch tool to draw your fully constrained shape.

You then are able to use different shapes to cross over with your first shape so you have something to trim.

The Power Trim Tool works the fastest when trimming lines. It is a tool that acts as a free-form line meaning that when you hold down your courser and drag it back and forth across your screen any line that had intercepted the courser will be trimmed.

Trim to Closest
![Page 11: SolidWorks Mini Tutorials](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081505/56816413550346895dd5c474/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

The Trim to Closest tool works by trimming the line that’s closest to the curer. So there for you don’t need your cursor to be right over that line to be able to trim it.

The Chafer tool works like the Fillet tool except that it doesn’t round the edges but cuts the edges to have more vertex's and sides.
