I use cad sofware but you know comparing the speed on design on blender with cad or precise designs take more time than solidworks fusion360 or autocad maybe someone cand develop a blender subprogram oriented to cad designs engineering and architectural designs
@@jesusveravera9769 the difference between the programs that you said and the blender cad sketcher is that cad sketcher is totally free and open source. I think is a different final user, like me, that have not a ton of money to invest in any kind of paid 3D CAD software only for create some 3D pieces to print at home, while in engineering office where I work Solidworks fits very well and is made for this, I'm a developer not engineer, so CAD Sketcher works pretty well and if I want something I can actually look to the code and change a bit, make macros or change behaviours just like I already did in the office for custom Solidworks exporter for my workmates but took me an entire week to develop. But, have you ever used FreeCAD? At least for my use case it would be a better (and fair) comparison
Rhino is still the best modeler ever and you can draft in it. I can draft faster in autocad, but for being a modeler, Rhino drafting is really good. Then, import the model to blender for the animation and graphics.
as a 3d modeller who has just got into 3d printing, thank god this exists - i already know my way around blender and really cannot be bothered to learn a new software
I use solidworks professionally and have a license personally, however this is amazing as a free ware tool to allow users to develop structural 3d models, thank you to everyone behind the development of this software.
Showing beautifully how to use CAD Sketcher with recent updates, is the best way not just to make the user experience as gold as possible, but overcome problems as you go. I've learned so much with this video alone regarding CAD Sketcher.
Regarding all the keyboard shortcuts; an addon or system that would display frequently-used shortcuts for a given context would really help my learning. Basically for every step of the tutorial you provided, a popover in the lower-left could appear and suggest what your next move might be. I think this could really help lower the learning curve. (Theoretically one could train an AI on input data to generate this, but I bet you could get 90% of the way there with simple heuristics.) e.g. (when looking at a new document) Ctrl-Shift-A - Add Sketch (when a tool is selected) Right-click - Cancel tool (when origin and line are seleced) - Shift-N - Add Midpoint Constraint (when anything dimensionable is selected) - Alt-D - Add Dimension I imagine several shortcuts listed for most of these, i just took examples from your video. PS, I've been following CADSketcher since you started making videos about it! I am *very* reluctantly about to learn Fusion360. Really, really wish there was a great open source CAD tool that started simple and supported complex modeling. Maybe there's a way to build Blender Lite with a focus on CAD? Make it 75% TinkerCad, 25% CADSketcher? I think Thangs should invest in building this, as an open-source project it would grow, and they could then link it into their ecosystem.
The CAD precise measurements are definitely better than my work around. I'll have to give this a try. Recently I've made a few practical models in Blender, and scaled from the print bed in the slicer, a known measure, to get things to the right sizing. Getting measurements rather than making fractions in the workflow is a definite time saver. _I was already familiar with making digital arts, but the main reason I got a printer was to also be able to make things in practical real world applications too._
I understand the desire to appeal to Blender users with a shortcut-based workflow, but the large number of shortcuts, some of which overlap Blender's defaults seems less than ideal. I would much rather see these functions broken out into pie menus or shortcut menus to spare users the memorization (and have the opportunity to add tooltips).
I hear you. One option would be to add a 'pre-tap' to the shortcut, much like you'd double-click a mouse button. For example, instead of pressing , you'd press . Tapping the modifier key by itself before giving the command would alert the addon that the next keypress would be specifically for it, instead of Blender, itself. Does that make sense?
This finally looks promising! I was always a little underwhelmed by your demos of the plugin but this one has brought back my hope for the future of CAD in Blender. Thank you!
Freaking proper tutorial. Succinct, quick, and you called out all of the hotkeys you were using. I came here just looking for how to extrude a circle to a cylinder and accidentally became a CAD master. haha. Keep on being awesome.
I have used Inventor and Blender a lot. What i've seen of CAD Sketcher I am really excited about! The shortcuts are SO intuitive, and dimensions are tidier than Inventor's sketch system. Keep up the good work sir! Can't wait to see more, and I intend to use CAD Sketcher myself!!!
I'm in no way interested in learning CAD, however... your enthusiasm and your incredible tutorials makes me at least flirt with the idea of learning it. I also think that your championing of Blender to quietly devour any other program's monopoly on CAD software is extremely exciting. While I'm likely not ever going to learn CAD it's great to see your enthusiasm and I've subscribed for that alone. I also learn a few things along the way (like Limited Dissolve in this video for instance). Thanks for making the Blender community awesome. Keep it up! :)
Limited dissolve is same as decimate modifier but in edit mode , and we have weld modifier(merge by distance) in object mode and merge by distance in edit mode
This is just what I need... I got Fusion360 but still, I really hate having to use multiple tools for modeling, I guess Blender will soon really be enough for everything!
@@marcombo01 indeeed... lets hope for more in the future! Im still using Fusion (Would use Solidworks if it was possible to get for me) too but interested in this project!
There are trade offs to using a plugin vs a dedicated program. But, unless you're suppling finished CAD to manufacturing, I think this seems to totally fill the CAD requirement for most 3d applicaitons
@@BattleGn0me it's not just about being able to creat a model fast Solidworks can run a lot of simulation and studies as well as built in CAM and it comes with a Toolbox that's rlly handy if you are talking big company you also gotta handle files and have auto model creation per excel and stuff like masterfiles Professional Cad like Solidworks and Fusion are rlly tuned for what they are used for and blender just tuned for the creative stuff it's mostly used for
@@BattleGn0me yeah for sure. If I did this professionally currently Id just use a dedicated program, but atm Im mostly making parts for myself to 3D print and possibly sell some times. This would be handy for that.
Very interesting. I followed along and got the same result. Using the buttons made more sense to me than shortcuts, as I understood better what was happening. Was able to export the model directly without duplicating and got zero errors in prusaslicer 2.4.2. I'm mainly a OpenSCAD user for 3D printing CAD work, but this is very, very intriguing!
I’ve tried it out a bit, and it isn’t as flexible as I’m used to having worked with tools like Autocad and Inventor before, but it’s more than I need for my projects (and way cheaper!) can’t wait to see how this keeps developing!
This appears to be a *very* promising tool and I'm grateful to the developers. Will absolutely consider paying for it (once I start using it). One key feature-or set of features-to implement is the use of variables and mathematical formulas. You could support typing in math formulas directly into the value fields (but such that they persist when you want to edit them). Alternatively, if you had some way to create an input and output tree using math nodes, you could set the main parametric inputs (obviously to be determined by the user but examples of inputs you might want to use include things like "scale", "width", or "tolerance"), and then use math nodes to generate a bunch of outputs linked to the value fields in your sketch.
Wonderful video ...... Congratulations to the author. Once again, all credit to the author of the video and greetings from Zagreb Croatia👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😊😊
Having done a small bit of SolidWorks, I'm extraordinarily excited to see CAD Sketcher, as I'd love to use Blender for anything and everything. I donated a bit when I grabbed it and I think I might donate more on another update. Great work!
I prefer these vids where your actually making something as other vids have random info that is not relevant it's nice to see it and explanation thanks
I love how precisely you explain everything without getting lost in (at first) unimportant details. I came from freecad and really couldn't see the error messages any more. And as luck would have it, you also have tutorials for freecad. The fact that you can now design with the CAD Add-on is of course a dream and soon a reason to delete all other vector programs and 3d programs from the computer, because you have everything with blender. Then, at some point, you came along and I reached my goal. Thanks a million for your tutorials, Jonathan. If I wasn't already married I would consider marrying you.
So happy I cam slow the speed down in videos. Otherwise thanks for the instructions. Wonderful tutorial it's really is nice that you make and share these.
Signed up for support for this project. Am hoping in time it will have a more integrated and intuitive workflow - this vid demonstrates there is still a long way to go. The support rib for instance could be a dedicated command. But it's certainly a huge step in the right direction for having engineering type constructions in Blender which has been missing for too long.
Cool tutorial. No need to duplicate the model for export though. Just make sure all the parts are selected and apply modifiers is enabled during the stl export. 3d Builder can clean up the part if your worried about stray verts or lines.
Great tutorial. Actually very easy to use after following this video. One issue I ran into was after adding the solidify modifier, some faces went crazy for some reason no matter what I did to the sketch or modifier. Easiest fix I found was delete the crazy faces, and use the 3d print addon to "make manifold" and it fixed all of my issues.
This is right in my wheelhouse; I used Blender loads back in the noughties, but attempts to learn Fusion360 have yielded nothing but frustration (mostly due to Autodesk changing the UI, making a lot of tutorial videos redundant), so this sounds perfect. Thanks for the video!
ive only watched to 4:30, but i can already see that its easier with freecad. if you are already a blender user, you might want to continue using blender, but i as a freecad user will not switch :)
I've got a question? Or two... 1. Can you copy sketches from one plane to another. Not reference, but like a copy and paste of the sketch? 2. Can you use some type of global variable as a dimension parameter in sketches?
Hi!! Thank you for your dedication to do tutorials and help others. A quick suggestion that I don't see many people do, try not to always use shortcut, I was a big turn off for me when learning blender at first trying to remember all the shortcut, and doing this not learning where and what tools are. Like going to sketcher, add constraint, and then click on distance instead of the shortcut, afterward use shortcut, at least the user can go back to use the longer way while the brain muscle is reminding the shortcuts
Quick Question - in your other videos, you mentioned how to set up Blender to do CAD designing... but are you saying that all we have to now do is download the plugin using a default Blender setup and off we go creating CAD models??? Have you made it that more simple????
C'est une excellente idée d'avoir ajouter ce paramètre à Blender, et je pense qu'à terme, cela pourrait devenir même meilleur que fusion 360 ou autres... Il y a encore beaucoup à faire, alors courage et bonne continuation 🤯👍🤓💣💣💣💣💣
Je pensais la même chose, mais les propositions CAO/FAO/BIM sont différentes, par exemple dans Fusion 360 vous pouvez générer une liste de matériaux, dans Revit vous pouvez générer tout un système complexe de suivi de projet et d'ingénierie et lister tout ce qui sera nécessaire pour le construction civile du projet.
Are user parameters planned? So we can easily and simultaneously edit multiple dimensions. Awesome initiative, makes me really excited to not have to use fusion 360 soon.
I'd like something to undercut Fusion so Autodesk is not tempted to remove features again. As open source of course we could choose to add that feature if we wanted. :)
Hey Keep Makin, hi Comment-Section! At 27:06 you mention to clean the mesh up. I have a little more complex part, but I see we have the same issues: I dont know how the fudge to remove these weird lines which randomly connect from a point on a nearby edge to a random point in a hole. It splits the faces into weird parts, which makes it impossible to emboss or bevel edges. What can I do to fix this?
It would be really nice if you could define variables and use them in/as constraints, even better if you could use simple calculations. So variable $width, constraint for object = $width / 2
at 1:07 you say there are shortcuts that are new to cad sketcher and they are linked in the description. Which links are they? None of the links are described as sketcher shortcuts. I tried clicking from "useful links" and down without success. Ever since i installed Sketcher I have been looking for sketcher's shortcuts. Give a sketcher noob a break please
hello there! I try to do the first object follow step by step but when I solidify it is not show the holes in it. the sketch is "fully defined" I try to put more holes in it and it is not happening ? is it some setting for that somewhere? many thanks!
So Blender boolean modifier plays nicer with coincident planes now? I remember having weird issues with booleans when two surfaces intersect one another
Solid operations to form scetch created bodies ..will they be possible being combined? Is there a kind of hitory tree in scetch application to march foreward or back?
I'm checking out the sketcher for Blender add-on, in the TH-cam demo you click CTRL - (minus) but I don't get the BTOOLS modifier that Jonathan gets do I need to install something else?
Being able to do cad drawings in Blender would be a gift from God.
