Excellent Tutorial Book

I just started using ProE at work and this book was very helpful in teaching me the fundamentals of Pro-E 2000i2. The click by click examples are easy to follow. The book shows you the most common commands that you'll use when you start designing your first parts. I recommend you practice some of the projects in this book before you take the week long "Fundamentals of Pro Engineer" course offered by PTC. The fast paced course can become very frustrating if you are completely new to ProE. This book also has very few text errors. The book's CD demonstrations are also helpful. Overall, I am very satisfied with my first ProE book.

I wish this book had been out when we chose textbooks.

I was a TA teaching ProENGINEER with a different book, and looked at several others when considering changing books. (We were not happy with the one we had, which was the first one available for 20, so we didn't have much choice at the time.) This is the book I recommended that the course change to - I felt it was well organized and thought out, and would be a good reference after the course was over.

My experience with this book.

I have had the experience with CAD tools such as AutoCAD and SDRC I-DEAS, but I had no experience with Pro/E. So I bought this book to teach myself how to use Pro/E. This book is pretty easy for me to follow. I spent average 3 or 4 hours on each lesson. I didn't do the exercises in each lesson though(I am busy with other things too). Still, after going through the texts, I am confident to make drawings for production. Although my previous CAD experience might have helped me, I still think this book is very good for people who start to use Pro/E: basic topics are covered, which are enough to enable you to make models or drawings for fabrication. Just my 2 cents.

This book is very thorough, and easy to understand

This book is an excellent beginners guide to the field of 3D-modelling with Pro/E. It takes you through most of the basic features, and some of the more advanced ones, in 10 step by step easy to follow lessons. After completing this book you will be able to model fairly complex assembly's, and presenting them in a professional way, ready for for fabrication.
