You use local operations when you want to perform operations on certain portions of a model, but not on others.
In this lesson, you design a double-ended measuring cup. You need to shell the two cups and fillet them. However, you do not want to shell the piece that connects the two cups. You can create the part and perform the feature operations on the separate bodies.
This lesson demonstrates:
Designing a part using the local operations technique
Creating the connecting piece that attaches both measuring cups
