6. Feature-Based Solid Modeling
Parts modeled by adding features to a base part
Material can be added or subtracted
Features can be created by extrusion, sweeping, revolving, etc.

7. Feature-based Modeling Process
Create base part
Add features until final shape is achieved
Extruded Base
Extruded Cut
Extruded Cut

8. Sample of features
