3D Modeling Tutorial: Creating a Paper Clip with Onshape's Sweep Tool

This video tutorial guides students through creating a 3D paper clip model using Onshape. It covers setting up the workspace, creating a path with lines and arcs, applying constraints, and using the sweep tool to finalize the model. Students are encouraged to complete an extra credit opportunity and are tasked with creating their own 3D model using the sweep tool. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of proper file naming and unit settings.

Explain how to use the sweep tool in the modeling process.
