This 6-part video series gives an overview of how quickly you can progress from a basic part to the completely designed mold using [XMDS].

Part 1
This video starts with a standard moldbase being generated. Surfaced insert blocks are then brought into [XMD] and worked on. Pockets are made, screws are added, and water and ejection are done as well. All in under 8 minutes!
