  4. It's #FreeCADFriday and we are on a shiny new instance! Many thanks for bearing with us as we've made the changes. #FreeCAD #fc3d #CAD #CAM #BIM

  5. It's ! Hope you all have had a great week. Show us what you are working on in .

  6. O týden a několik iterací později.
    Bajonet na mobil v prvních testech dopadl dobře, takže jsem se pustil do lepšího uchycení na řidítka a zaměřil se na snazší 3D tisk - růžový díl jde vytisknout na plocho s minimem převisů.
    Geometrie objímek na řidítka není perfektní, ale je to s dostatečnou tolerancí, aby bylo možné PET-G tisk dotáhnout, aniž by popraskal.

  11. In the end, I made this model using #SurfacePsycho. Of course, it's not recommended to do everything in #Blender, but I wanted to learn. That said, when it comes to creating #hulls and other complex surfaces, it's the perfect companion for #FreeCAD. #fc3D #b3d #CAD #nurbs

  12. @FreeCAD Inspired by a design from Patrick Blom (@pbl0m / printables.com/model/1461731-b), I'm working on a DIY twitterbox. This is WIP!

    The back is going to be #3dprinted (maybe in two parts with the backplate made out of transparent PETG - I'm not sure yet). The front is going to be made out of wood (multiplex birch). I'm planning to try out the new #CNC router in my local #hackerspace / #makerspace for this.

  14. I've dedicated this #FreeCADFriday to my first tool holder for my newly installed euro peg board. I wasn' t satisfied with what was already available. I could already use the current version but I'd like to improve it some more. Of course, I'm going to share the final model.

  15. Title opera: "A FreeCAD Guy"
    Technique used: #Blender 3D Grease Pencil, and circles
    New version of my drawing, now made with perfect circles and tangents. Could this be the start of a new artistic movement? After cubism, here comes circlism? 😅

  19. @FreeCAD I've printed the design today. It worked flawlessly without support. Yes, the detailed contact area of the tilt support might be over-engineered for a FDM printer with a 0.4 mm nozzle. But isn't there a saying? You can never be overdressed or over-engineered (or something like that). However, it fits great. I'm going to add a rubber strip between the printed part and the light but otherwise, that's it (apart from publishing the model -> 2do list 😬 )

  20. On todays #FreeCADFriday , I've worked on projects from last time (chaos.social/@M4x/113647399133).

    The hook was tested but I've to adjust the dimensions a bit. The bracket which can (hopefully) pushed on top of the mesh basket of a kids bicycle got #3dprinted today (photo is going to follow).

  21. @FreeCAD I've worked on several small models today. As I have not yet had the time to fix my #3dprinter, this increases the backlog for print jobs... Check out the alt-text for details. Since I haven't yet printed any of these, the designs aren't published yet.

  22. @e_es Schön, dass es geklappt hat! Falls du an Tipps interessiert bist: Ich empfehle dringend Sketche immer vollständig zu bemaßen. Auch die Bevorzugung von Hilfsgeometrien und geometrischen Beschränkungen zu Gunsten von weniger Bemaßungen empfehle ich gerne. Beispiel anbei.

  23. Heck, #FreeCAD now if you import a 3D file in #glb #glTF exported from #Blender it is converted, into a part object without further steps, I tried a simple object, I don't know if it works with more complex things, but this is fantastic! #b3d #fc3d #CAD #Blender3D

    @Hippie Thanks for sharing your model! Very interesting. What kind of metal are you going to use? Are you goign to create technical drawings via the TechDraw WB too?

    Regarding your model:
    1. It's a common way to arrange the different Bodys the way you did. Another approach would be to use the new integrated Assembly WB (available in the latest development version or the release clients for the upcoming v1.0 release).

  25. @mart_e In case you're looking for (only) SVG files on a regular basis, from the #FreeCAD wiki (wiki.freecad.org/SVG): "To exclusively create 2D shapes, and produce SVG files, there are alternative programs like Inkscape."

  26. Today, I gave a #workshop for beginners in #3dcad using #FreeCAD. As usual, I forgot to take pictures. Too bad that I'm the one who's telling everybody to take pictures during their workshops... 🙄

    The age of the participants ranged from 12 years old and serious retiree. Great mix and a lot of fun. Thank you!

    Bonus: It's #linuxpresentationday 🐧! I've used #Ubuntu #Linux for my workshop + installed #libreoffice on one participants PC + canceled the M$ 365 subscription 👩‍💻💪

    Download binary for Linux (or build it from source): dhondt.de/
    :freecad: 's FEM Workbench uses CalculiX as a finite-element analysis solver: wiki.freecad.org/FEM_CalculiX
    💡

  36. :freecad: 's 🆕 Workbench now has two separate :
    First one — Analysis, for analyzing surface smoothness visually. It has 3 modes:
    1) 🦓 ;
    2) 🌈 ;
    3) 🌔.
    Second one — Analysis, specially for design.
    💡

  37. :freecad: 's 🆕 Zebra Tool actually has 3 modes:
    1) 🦓 ;
    2) 🌈 ;
    3) 🌔.
    Zebra Tool main purpose is to analyze surface smoothness (curvature) and discover rough edges visually comparing representation of stripes mapped onto surface.
    📝 Now this tool also could be used for Analysis to visualize Core/Cavity Split: forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.ph
    Sample model (see attachment): forum.freecad.org/viewtopic.ph

  38. I convert all the #CAD files that are in #STEP and #IGES and also in 3dm in the native format of #FreeCAD, for those in #3dm I will do the conversion in two steps, these huge formats cannot be stored, they eat the space on the HD, the worst is 3dm, huge proprietary format. #fc3d

  41. A workflow that works with all OS.
    From #Blender3D to Plasticity via converting #SubD to Curve then into #Beziér and decimating with adaptive and exporting into #SVG with #LeoMoon Add-on and importing SVG into #FreeCAD and exporting into IGES or STEP and then import into Plasticity, however you can use this workflow your with preferred application.
