… from master sketch to main part of the enclosure.

I just startet the 3D printer to check if my tolerances fit the electronic component(s).

#FreeCAD people, I need to make many pockets with the same shape. They have to be positioned in specific coplanar positions and orientations that have to be set up with constraints.

What's the best way to do this? I don't want to have unrelated duplicates: editing one sketch should update all pockets.

I released this full set of Roadshow/Funhouse gears last year. I'm glad to see they are still in good shape after a year. I also have the original prototype that just has the middle gear and that's in one piece too.

Sector gear: https://www.printables.com/model/1241735-funhouse-road-show-animatronic-head-sector-gear-03

Middle gear was made with #openscad, the sector gear with #freecad, printed of PETG

I ♥️ tidy master sketches in #FreeCAD

I use a PartDesign Body as a container for the master sketches. This makes using binders w/ offsets easier. The "X-ed" rectangles stand for off-the-shelf electronics parts.

I'm so impressed with this and so pleased to write it up... yet I understand so little about EM?High frequency stuff! Awesome that #FreeCAD can have these things developed in the community though. Proper power of #opensource

Spotted: A new Microwave Workbench

Over on our FreeCAD Mastodon account, under our regular #FreeCADFriday hashtag we get to spot all manner of things....

Years ago a friend gave me a bit of hardware that provided 8 ADC channels through a parallel port. I never used it, and recently needed to get 6 channels of IO to an fpga that has a 25 pin cable coming out of it, for the CNC mill, and it works for that but needs some protection from being sprayed with metal chips. Now it has at least something: sliding top and snap on bottom. Design in #freecad print in PLA

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.

Not Friday anymore, but my #FreeCADFriday was about getting some #QualityOfLife things together.

Got my rotating hanging bar up again after a small redesign of the bearing holders. Also designed and #3DPrinted an end stop for my nieces' hang bar since they're worried that it'll fall out of the bearing.

Haven't had my #PineTime on my arm for a few days since the strap broke. Printed a small loop in ASA and cut the zip flap off a discarded rain jacket to make myself a new one.

Heiko Rech ist unter deutschsprachigen Holzwerkern ja bekannt. Er hat heute einen ersten Block seines kostenlosen Onlinekurses zur Verwendung von FreeCAD im Möbelbau veröffentlicht.

Ich bin ganz dolle stolz auf mich, weil ich mein erstes Objekt in Freecad erstellt habe und unser Logo drauf legen konnte. Das sieht so simpel aus, aber erst einmal verstehen, was das Programm nun von mir will ... 😁 Danke @Matthias für die schnell Einweisung

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.

Made a tube with nice #Voronoi patterns, using the Nodes addon on #FreeCAD. https://www.printables.com/model/1396697-voronoi-tube-using-freecad

Long time since I uploaded a model to #Printables BTW.

It's a puzzle.
It's a drink-coaster.
It's ambient lightning.
It's a party game.

Finally published the #3dmodel of the Drink-Randomizer I built for #realraum's 18y party. 😃

Of course, #freecad file is included.

The model is _also_ available on the Fediverse:

Modelling utility space is getting serious! Now to figure out if I can reach the top of the dryer… hmm maybe I should model a stick figure of my height for reference! #diy #shelving #woodworking #FreeCAD
