ADSK has released the tutorial I wrote about Design Intent in Part Modeling. Too often I see people modeling in ways that I know will come back to bite them one day. This article discusses techniques to keep the "smarts in your parts (apologies to Dr. Seuss)

This is great Sean I just started teaching our employees once a month the exact same things. Fully contrained parts, removed adaptivity. Use of constraints instead of dimensions, etc. I will be handing this out in the training next month if you dont mind.

Would also like to add that the ability to unshare a sketch which came with IV 11 improved the ability to remove and control adaptivity if used. I haven't worked with 11 that much yet but sometimes I know in rel 9 and 10 removing adaptivity of these sketches was sometimes troublesome.
