  1. #FreeCAD (freecad.org/features.php?lang=) is good but missing enough features to make me truly miss #SolidWorks

    If pirating SolidWorks or using FreeCAD are my two options I'm actually not sure what I'd pick.

    Honestly? If there was a #CAD3d option with a reasonable subscription ($50-200/year) that didn't make me relearn my workflow I'd definitely pay for that.

    Onshape is online only and makes all your designs public unless you pay them $1500 a year, which.... nah. Hell nah.

  2. Devo vendere il mobile di una cameretta (armadiatura + scaletta + 2 lettini a castello innestati) solo che per evitare di dover dare spiegazioni vorrei riprodurre il disegno in CAD 3D per metterlo nell'inserzione. Potete consigliarmi soluzioni facili da usare per Linux o anche online? Considerate che l'ultimo CAD che ho disegnato l'ho fatto almeno 24 anni fa...

    Grazie

  3. 🪨 CAD-3D on the Atari ST 🛠️

    In today's new post I examine the grandfather to #3DSMax, by the legendary Tom Hudson. This also gave me my first experience with the Atari ST's GEM environment (wish me luck). Plus, I learn the surprising ties to #DeluxePaint and...

    ...is this right?
    #Starfox for the #SNES?!

    Enjoy the read!

  4. I have released version 0.9 of `cq-studio`, my hot-reloading server for using the excellent #YACV viewer to interact with models you build in #CadQuery (or #build123d) with #Python code, programmatically. It lets you edit your model code module(s) in any editor/IDE you like, and the models are re-rendered whenever changes to your files are saved.

    pypi.org/project/cq-studio/

    You can install it with just `pipx install cq-studio`. If you've never used pipx before, it requires a tiny amount of setup to add the programs it installs to your file search PATH environment variable.

    CadQuery is an alternative to the perhaps better-known OpenSCAD package. CadQuery uses a more advanced CAD kernel than OpenSCAD, but they both have their uses.
