no matter how intimidating something is, one's much less worried about it when some calm guy (or should I say "lad") is explaining it to you with a nice British accent
Even years after posting, no one has been able to compete with your brilliance! Absolutely loved the video, I'm only sad there was never a Part 2 of this madman with a pc😝 Anyways, a big thank you VOG!💚
I am new to CAD and was checking into several other videos until I found this one. Definitely the best introductory FreeCAD tutorial. It's so sad that there was no series and RIP.
At the time of watching, this video is two years old and it's still the best quick start guide for FreeCAD I could find! Congrats mate, this was the perfect mixture of "People who start from scratch need to know THESE things", "This GUI escaped a timecapsule from the 90s, I need to tell my viewers what's actually important" and "Lets make this informative, relaxing and funny at the same time" Thanks to this, I was able to model a spool holder in half an hour without any prior CAD experience. You get my full recommendation!
you nailed the "happy voice" that makes any beginner tutorial fun and interesting while avoiding making the learner free overwhelmed or feeling talked down to... great job!
How this video doesn't have millions of views is absolutely baffling! By far the best video to follow along to for freecad. And it was perfect for me wanting to make a phone stand a certain way. Thank you for your tutorials. And the jokes make the video so much easier to go along with, in my opinion 💯
This was a wonderful tutorial. I checked your videos and saw you never made this into a series. That's a shame, you have such a talent for having the right amount of learning and abstracting what you were trying to teach in order to get fundamentals down. Here's hoping you might pick this back up.
I'll be honest, I enjoyed doing the tutorial but at the time I was very surprised how few people actually wanted to watch it. I've no doubt this was down to the magical TH-cam algorithm as, over time, more and more people have slowly found the video and have been very kind with their comments.
Somehow everybody dims himself a great teacher and improvises when making a learning video, but this author actually prepared a lesson, a script and thougtfully executed with no monotonous voice or pauses, wrong steps and mumbling and jumbling. I liked this video more then everything before.
I just lost my way! I stared with this tutorial . . . and then went on to others . . . wish I had stayed with this person/tutorial. You do a fine job of teaching with a wry sense of humor, too! THX.
I've been looking for a video like this for weeks. What a joy and relief to find it. All the other ones, talking, clicking away, no possibility of seeing what they were clicking on or where it was to be found. This one is so clear. Simply wonderful. Thanks so much for putting it out there.
@ 19:04 great line. "..and I'm now looking at the rear from the proper angle. Something that always brings me pleasure." Just be careful. Looking at the rear too long could get you reported to HR. 😅 Freecad is the first cad program I've ever tried to use. I never imagined that it was so complicated to render what seems such a basic design. Following along step by step will help familiarize me with the different functions where I can finally design what I'm wanting to.
Wow, the UI for this version of FreeCAD makes AutoCAD R12 look downright futuristic. That version of AutoCAD was released in 1992, for DOS 3.3, Windows 3.1, and MacOS System 7.
I would just like to say a really BIG thank you for this tutorial video. You have simplified things to the point where it all makes perfect sense. For the time being, this video is going to be my bible. I believe you have solved a major issue for me. Finding this video now was perfect timing; my 3D Printer arrived yesterday afternoon. This is my first encounter with 3D printing. I bought it with a very specific purpose in mind and I feel sure that with the help of your video, I will be able to achieve my aim. Oddly enough, the part I need to make is much larger but also triangular in shape. Thank you once again for posting this amazing tutorial.
Many thanks. All CAD seems overwhelming to begin with. The can so so much! Luckily we can do amazing things with just a little, so if we focus on that it's not as overwhelming 😁😁😁
By far the best tutorial out there. Thank you so much for putting in the work to teach us how to use FreeCad! Without this video I would've been totally lost!
I have to say - your voice and style of narration match precisely to what I'd imagine the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy would sound like! This tutorial is perfectly easy to follow, doesn't go off on long and unnecessary tangents, and explains everything quite clearly! Well done! Now if only there were a concise tutorial on understanding and surviving Vogon poetry...
Oh Wow, Finaly a tutorial on FreeCAD that is easy to follow, presented really well and has a useful end result. I learnt more about FreeCAD in 26min than hours of other video's. You're now my first point of call for more FreeCAD. Thank You.
This was great! A lot of people complain online about FreeCad being dumb, hard to understand or not that great. But its actually amazing that it's a free software with so many CAD functions. Once you start to become familiar with the tools, and more importantly how to sketch, you will realize how useful it is. And again its FREE! Thank you for this. I see myself watching this multiple times the next time I want to sketch something a little more complex than a single plane object 😅
Glad your doing this tutorial! I down loaded FreeCAD 2 weeks ago and kinda gave up on learning it. I had watched a few tutorials from other TH-camrs, they were either going too fast (skipping functions) or to slow (exhaustively going over every function's detail). Your tutorial moves at the right speed for me. I can actually make something now. Thank you!
Thanks very much. Getting the pace right is difficult. There's so much to cover in fairness to others. I opted here to go with a "confidence booster" approach, giving practical skills without going into to much depth. Depth may come, if folks want it 😁
Love your videos. I am a total hands-on learner. You can sit there and explain everything, but until I see it, it won't sink in. So thank you for what you do. ❤✌
Wow, Outstanding, I am a total newbie, like 2 hrs old, I learned so much from this video. I loved drafting in High School, T squares plus 2H and 4H Pencils. This is great!
Finally someone who explains things in a way my 73 year old brain can understand. ONE issue now that I have found this. My version is 0.21.2 and just different enough to cause issues. There is a pending release of 0.22.0. Would LOVE to see an updated version of this exact tutorial.
Thank you for providing an understandable totorial that isn't rushed to the point of being unable to conprehend what is happening. Also you made me realize that I needed to change my 2d scetch by 90 degrees. I think this will work better, for what I want to do, than Blender which has been driving my nuts trying to make 3d print files.
This is the best tutorial I've seen! I was able to follow along perfectly and when I encountered errors, I could see why (but usually didn't know why). I attempted to add fillets in all the edges. The program did NOT like that haha. With 3D printing becoming more and more popular, I think your tutorials will become incredibly handy for many people. I hope you consider making a freecad tutorial playlist in the future!
Why wasn't this the first video recommended?? I guess one has to wade through the bad to appreciate the good. And this is excellent! I can't imagine a faster or more effective way to introduce FreeCAD. Many thanks!!
Great tutorial! I have been checking out a bunch of 3D modelling/CAD tools lately but got stuck on some detail in all cases. This is by far the best tutorial I found in months and will for sure give FreeCAD some attention this weekend!
Well, I know I am a year late, but thank you very much for this great tutorial. I learnt more from this short video than I have in the last 3 days of playing with this programme. Excellent you have a new subscriber.
This is perfect timing! Not only did I just finish upgrading my computer (so I can actually run design programs now), but I also have a design project due in two weeks that I completely forgot about until I saw the notification for this video! Like I said, really good timing.
I have really struggled with other TH-cam tutorials as they were just too fast for me to keep up with, You miss one small thing in FreeCad and it doesn't do what the instructors does and causes all sorts of head aches! Presented at the perfect speed for me, So thanks so much and ill sub in the hope to learn more. Thanks so much again...
You are an incredible teacher, amazing... You have just make me realize how powerful and easy this program is... This video show the world what's the correct way to teach... You are a professional. Congrats!! 🤩
This is a great video VOG. I hope you will continue with real-life examples showing how the software works. So many tutorials only highlight the software without applying it to useful situations!
Thank you for your time. The best video on free cad I have seen. You have taken the time to teach us what we need know to understand, with no BS. I will be sure to share this video.
Oh, Man!!! thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you. You made it look like, it is super cool to learn Freecad. I landed on your page after watching many confusing Freecad tutorials. Your method of explaining is so good!!!!
I came for the 3d printing but i'll sure as hell stay for this tutorial series! Thanks a lot I highly appreciate your work and fine sense of humour. Greetings from Austria
That was an awesome tutorial, you really have such a talent when it comes to explaining things like this! Informative, funny and kind of relaxing at the same time. Big thanks!
A Great starter, I started with Solidworks, then Fusion 360 (No Hope with AUTOCAD) and now this. It has its quirks but thanks to this video I am up and running now.
I wish I'd found this before I started pulling my hair out (not much there anyway at my age haha) Too many videos rush through or miss out the most important steps by assuming you have at least some knowledge, but I wouldn't be searching for freecad basics if I had that knowledge, thankfully your approach is exactly what's needed. Thank you so much, new subscriber here now!
Wonderful! This is why I make these tutorials, so folks have the confidence to make their own designs. Brilliant! Thanks for the share. Keep going 😁👍👍👍
Excellent tutorial. I am getting my 1st 3d printer, and as soon as I can get the printer going and me printing this will be my next stop. THANKS THANKS THANKS. OUSTANDING!!!
That was really brilliant, it has enabled me to do something which I never would be able to do without your help. absolutely amazing - thanks very much.
By far the best tutorial available, done at a good beginner pace, and had me creating my first 3D design, plus gave me the confidence on doing my own small project successfully. Just wished you would have carried this series on and followed up with a beginner slicing tutorial as I just went to print my phone holder and it failed a third of the way through as I guess I need supports on the overhangs - doh!
In the meanwhile FreeCAD has evolved to 1.0 version. Nevertheless this tutorial nailed it for me. While I`m having trouble getting the whole thing to export properly (the pocket is missing) I`m confident that I will get this resolved just as much as getting started in the first place. Thanks a ton!!!
i had an issue for a bit that almost made me change software but i finnaly figured it out. it was while doing this tutorial. but after it was solved i was able to learn quite a lot thanku for the great vid
Good Sir, This is an outstanding tutorial. I've been trying to wrap my mind around FreeCAD for days without any luck when your video showed up in my feed. The lesson was clear and the illustrations were spot on. With the right orientation, I too was also able to "look at the rear from the proper angle".
I love this so much!! Explaining it like any other. This will definitely help me as I've been trying to teach freeCAD to myself for the past 6-7 hours. Well let's just say it hasn't worked too well haha
thank you very helpfull. yes a series would be nice for us beginers. i would like to see more time on the combo view screen , It seems thats the place to fix and repair
Been struggling to learn this software but got the phone holder drawn and printing it now thank you for the instruction keep up the great work you are doing.
Wow! Thank you! I have been wanting to download Freecad for a while, but my old laptop couldn't handle it. Luckily my new one does and the tutorial really helped me understand it. I did what you said and followed your instructions, although the one I was using had the tools in a slightly different place (not an issue). I managed it, even when I got it wrong, I was able to back track thanks to you. I will not be using it for 3D printing, I want to use it for designing woodwork projects. But what you showed me really helped to give me confidence to have a go. 🤓🤓
no matter how intimidating something is, one's much less worried about it when some calm guy (or should I say "lad") is explaining it to you with a nice British accent
Jan, that really made me laugh. Thank you 😁😁😁
AT LAAST !!!! a FreeCad tutorial that I can actually understand. The presentation, both the narrative and the illustrations, were superb. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
I couldn't agree more!
literaly the best one!!!!
Indeed the most understandable tutorial i ever saw on Freecad. Now i can really start to use it... Thank you, @vogman!!
19:03 "I'm now looking at the rear from the proper angle, something that always gives me pleasure"
I can definitely agree with that, my man
Even years after posting, no one has been able to compete with your brilliance!

60 seconds in and I knew I was onto a winner with this channel. 90 seconds in and I subscribed.
You're very kind. Thanks for your support 😁
IF YOU DON'T KNOW A THING ABOUT FREECAD, THIS IS THE PERFECT TUTORIAL!!! THANKS MAN!!!
you nailed the "happy voice" that makes any beginner tutorial fun and interesting while avoiding making the learner free overwhelmed or feeling talked down to... great job!
Thanks very much. I try to enjoy what I'm doing and I hope by doing that folks will enjoy learning 😁

a 'clever' Brit-accent AI voice.

Only half through the video & already wanting to say thank you. This is easy to follow.
Somehow everybody dims himself a great teacher and improvises when making a learning video, but this author actually prepared a lesson, a script and thougtfully executed with no monotonous voice or pauses, wrong steps and mumbling and jumbling. I liked this video more then everything before.
Even if I didn't want to learn FreeCad I'd still watch this tutorial for the entertainment value!!
Great tutorial!
Glad you liked it!
I'm only 4 minutes in as an absolute beginner in cad and loving the way you teach! Cause I'm a baby. Subscribed and thumbs up.
Welcome aboard!
I think u're the best cad teacher out there. Thank you.
Glad you think so!
Excellent beginners tutorial, really good that you show what to do when things go wrong.

Thank you, this is precisely what I required in order to start using this CAD program
Excellent video with just the right amount of tech for an intro. Please do more Freecad, your style of delivery is very effective.
Thanks John 😁
There's nothing about this video that I don't love! Thank you!
you got an awesome sense of humor making thing supposed to be boring an absolute fun, thank you!
Complete newbie here. It took a couple of tries but, your tutorial was a lot of fun, educational and, it was a huge boost to my confidence. Thanks.
This is a great video VOG. I hope you will continue with real-life examples showing how the software works. So many tutorials only highlight the software without applying it to useful situations!
Thanks John. I'm a firm believer in learning by doing, so this approach makes the most sense to me 😁

I was told off of freecad by people. Glad I watched this first because FOSS is awesome!
We all owe a huge debt of thanks to the amazing folks that give their skills and free time to packages like this 😁
Loved this Tutorial, simple, straight to the point, and easy to follow along. Thank you!
Wow! Thank you! I have been wanting to download Freecad for a while, but my old laptop couldn't handle it. Luckily my new one does and the tutorial really helped me understand it. I did what you said and followed your instructions, although the one I was using had the tools in a slightly different place (not an issue). I managed it, even when I got it wrong, I was able to back track thanks to you. I will not be using it for 3D printing, I want to use it for designing woodwork projects. But what you showed me really helped to give me confidence to have a go. 🤓🤓
I'm pleased to have been able to help 😁
This is amazing tutorial that really helps me to understand freecad, thanks so much

Glad it was helpful!
