#freecad — Public Fediverse posts

Having fun designing a cowling for the steering column on the Stupid Car to print later. Having a bit of trouble working out how to attach the two halves.

#FreeCAD

I've got the laser cut parts from the machinist and they're looking really good! I installed one so far.

Re that earlier toot about the tiny spirit level done in @freecad ... the design files are now over on the public instance of @manyfold here https://3dprint.social/models/5vm1wnlqn92n

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.

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.

Tuhlie

Little toolholder for belts. Best printed in TPU.

• Screwdriver (Wera etc)
• Wrenches
• Bits
• Screwpockets
• Loop for pliers

I'll test this a bit before upload.

This was also a nice little test for Freecad 1.0.

We have started a fundraising to include AutoCAD DXF format. Help us with a small donation and benefit of a free service !

LibreCAD, being a fork of QCAD 2.0.5 Community Edition, for a long time had only a Points-based Grid.

Now there are settings to fully customize the Grid look:
1) with Points type its possible to set Metagrid to Continious line type (or other).
2) with Lines type its possible to fully customize both, main Grid and Metagrid line types.

Also, its possible to customize the look of Axis Lines and extend them infinitely.

#FreeCAD under developments, has continuos improvements and I really like what was and is done, specially my preferred part is the new Tech Draw improvements, now it is much faster and cleaner, with it you can generate nice drawing and export it as #DXF or #SVG, for me the ability to export in DXF is fantastic so I can edit drawings with #QCAD or other 2D #CAD editor. #fc3d https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/tag/weekly-builds

I need to make some sheet metal unfolding quickly, for some parts that I'm designing with #Plasticity3D, and I wanted to try the #FreeCAD #Sheet #Metal workbench, and it works very well, one click and I can export the file to #DXF with the bend lines. #CAD #opensource

A little #tattoo gun available in many format from #Blender to #CAD as #FreeCAD #STEP #3dm # IGES basic #DXF drawing, is a project done from a real one, that can you rebuild your own and use it to start and make tattoo. Free model! #fc3d #Rhino #moi3d #b3d
