  1. 🚀 CADBase v0.3.2: Fully Open Source!

    A digital platform for sharing, versioning, and viewing 3D models with early RBAC and API access.

    All core components are now public:
    🖥️ Frontend (MIT)
    ⚙️ Backend (AGPLv3)
    🛢️ DB Schema (PostgreSQL)

    What's new:
    • STEP format + viewer improvements
    • RBAC + API keys
    • Security hardening

    Also check out our add-ons for FreeCAD & Blender!

    Looks like you've drawn 2 overlapping rectangles, right? – Then the geometry of the sketch is not distinct what's "inside" and "outside" (FC 26.3 should "fix" that w/ internals AFAIK)

    Use "trim edge" tool (keys: G,T) to remove the upper and right edge of that small square. Pull out the remaining two edges to select and delete them.

    Then you can pad the resulting "L" shaped sketch.

  3. I am too stupid in the simplest things how #FreeCad wants me to work.
    Just tried to have a L-shaped sketch and pad / extrude it. Let's say the result is surprising to me. Do I really have to go with 25 and 24mm sides to don't have any overlaps (this works as expected)? Or is there an option I don't see to join/merge elements in the sketch?
    Background of the story: I started with Fusion a while back but want to give FreeCad a chance and currently trying to recreate my models in there.

    Hi ! I'm looking for a 3d printer / linux fer m'y classroom. What's the best 3 ? Thanks for pour answers.

  5. @freecad I am designing and building a new enclosure for my 3D printer. I finished the main part already, but another door is still missing. So today I added my acrylic glass parts to the FreeCAD model to think about the second door.

    Since this always feels like a rabbithole to me, I created a model of my room, the shelf next to the enclosure, a Eurobox to sit below and the Anycubic Vyper 3D printer.

  6. Yet another #Multiboard remix to scratch my own itch! This time, it's a nub for holding my metal ruler. The #FreeCAD project is parametric, so you can change the size of the nub to fit other objects as you see fit.

    There were a couple of other options already out there that I had been trying for a little while, but they used the "small thread" (peg board hole) connection, and they were just too small for my liking. I wanted something that took up more visual space so that it is more obvious to me when something isn't in its place. This also lets me mount it flush with the Multiboard plate, which pleases me. 🙏

  7. It took longer than expected, but my #hydroponics video about Kratky bottles with 3d-printed parts is ready.
    I tried other bottles but these 2l milk jugs are perfect in having wide throats, being stable against winds (I grow plants on an open balcony), and the size is good. They also pack well side-by-side since the bottom is rectangular.
    The current batch of seedlings shown in the video is already bottled, mostly, with basil just about to. I'm currently out of empty bottles, and still need to sprout the seeds for the big container too.

    All the models are made in FreeCAD, all the animations — in Friction2D. The milk jugs are local :)
    The original inspiration by Hoocho's.

  8. Warum nicht gleich so, und out of the Box? Nach mehrstündigem, hartem Kampf endlich die #SpaceMouse von #3dconnexion unter #FreeCAD 1.1.1 zum Laufen bewegt. Neue Version aus den Quellen kompiliert, den #AppImageLauncher ebenfalls und die Benutzergruppe des konstruierenden Users angepasst.

    Benutzerfreundlich ist was anderes.

  9. I wanted to make this comfy

    Wireless-Charging Phone Pillow

    for a while now .. and finally I am happy enough with it to publish it!!

    Enjoy 😃

    It perfectly fits my phone, even with the PopSocket.

  16. Für umme lesen: Bücher zu FreeCAD, Snap! und zur Medientheorie

    In den letzten Tagen haben sich in meinem zweiten Gehirn in paar Links zu kostenlosen Ebooks eingefunden, die ich Euch nicht vorenthalten möchte. Daher hier – wie immer – der Reihe nach: blog.schockwellenreiter.de/202 #FreeCAD #Snap #FreeEbooks #Medientheorie

  17. Cool! The devs have made a ticket tracking Curves/NURBS mapping API. Showing the progress of supporting Geomdl, , and rhino3dm
