I’ve been teaching and freelancing in SolidWorks for 15 years, and I noticed the same thing over and over:

People know the tools , but not the thinking behind good design.

I’ve seen it here on Reddit too, the same frustration keeps coming up: models that break the moment you tweak a dimension.

That’s why I made CADQuest. It’s a set of short, real-world challenges that train you to design with intent , like how top engineers build parts that survive change. I also built a small SolidWorks plugin that automatically checks your work and gives you a full report on what’s solid and what could be improved.

It’s still early, but everything works and it’s free to explore.

I’m inviting a small group of designers to try it out and share feedback before the full release.

If that sounds like something you’ve needed for a while, feel free to check it out : cadquest.io

Would love to hear what you think , especially what kind of challenges you’d want to see next.
