I couldn’t find any lock pinning tray online that had a key aligning pocket like this, so I made myself one. #freecadfriday #FreeCAD

Last weekend I showed off the #FreeCAD designed #FoamO hot wire #CNC cutter at @lpoolmakefest This week and this #FreeCADFriday I have been working out #CAD approaches to make dihedral (angled) wing sections using #3Dprinted parts. FoamO repo (barebones!) is here https://codeberg.org/concretedog/FoamO #making #fixedwing

The largest thing I modeled yet, done in 5 min in FreeCAD and printed in one go on the Snapmaker U1, no failures/reprints, stuck to the base plate all the way, except for a small part of the brim in one corner.
I now get the "tool vs. hobby" compared to my Elegoo Neptune4. Not to mention that the print would not fit on the smaller 256mm plate.

Tinta now has 21 videos on MakerTube, the whole build from FreeCAD sketches to the 3D-printed wall mount and electronics tests like the NFC taps.
Thanks to @MakerTube for an home for maker videos on PeerTube.makertube.net/c/tinta

A definite quality of life improvement in FreeCAD was to set the sizes of the points in a sketch a LOT bigger. The default is 5 px which on my 4k screen was about 0.2 mm and almost impossible to hit. Trying to set up constraints was so bloody frustrating as lining up the mouse pointer on a point took ages. Much better now, could go even bigger than 20 px.
