Hello. Interesting Vid. You finished with 2D Tech Draw Work Bench (WB) of a 3D drawing. Can the opposite be done..? Start with Tech Draw WB going to Part Design WB..? Thank you.
Hi, thks for the question, I understand your interrogation, indeed NO, in FreeCAD the Techdraw workbench is done to make technical drawing from a 3D shape and not the inverse. But when you construct in 3D you generally start with a 2D shape done with the sketcher workbench. There is also the interesting Draft WB that is hybrid in that sense, you can sketch some draft and then convert it in some ways in 3D, but this maybe confusing at beginning, I could do a video on it. But in general the normal workflow for simple part is => Sketch => Partdesign to build 3D shape (or Part) => Techdraw to make official drawing
I have FreeCAD 1.0.0 running on a Windows 10 laptop. The video says it's for "FreeCAD 1.0", but the video shows yet another variation ("1.0.0RC2"). My version does not start with the same screen as shown in the video, so I'm lost before I get started.
RC2, means release candidate2, when I did the video final version of FreeCAD 1.0.0 was not yet available, Both version are identic at 99,5% except to version number and start screen, so I think that should do it :-)
I advise you to watch the video first, then try to do it yourself on your own. If you want to do it in //, the video's tempo will be too high, in which case you can watch the video in French🇫🇷/🇨🇭Swiss th-cam.com/video/Bv36vOpx9Jc/w-d-xo.html , which has a much quieter tempo - that's Switzerland🫕🐮🏔! and activate the English subtitles.
Please continue. It's not just the speed. I played it at half speed and then I saw that the words and what you are doing are not synchronized. My advice: form groups. Put a one-second pause between groups. Write in the video which menu item you are using. I myself use RC4. I couldn't manage to mark the pivot point on the body. What am I doing wrong?
Yeah I know, it comes from my workflow, and I did this videos a bit in draft mode to test if there is some interest or not. As said I'll improve all that and more... It doesn't look like it, but making good TH-cam videos is a whole process, and before diving in headlong, you have to test a little. I'm a big believer in the baby steps strategy. Concerning the pivote point on the body : try the official 1.0.0 Version it comes out yesterday.
@@ga3d_._tech528 There's a lot of superfluous mouse movements that are distracting from the actual needed actions. It would be easier to follow if the movements weren't so hectic. But your descriptions are extremely useful.
Thanks for the feedback, it's very useful. concerning GUI : check your version, it's with FreeCAD 1.0 RC2, I'm under linux it may very slightly change a few details. and I put the panel "Tasks" on the right. concerning speed : My teenagers and friends have told me that I need to talk faster and “bombard” more, but here it's definitely to fast. these are my first videos and I'm still finding my format, speed, etc... in the meantime If it's too fast you can always put the subtitles on and play the video in 0.5x speed. but I'll do it again in a better tempo.
Yeah, really! I'm not sure why the word "beginner" is in the vid title, looks awfully advanced to me. This is NOT a good instructional video, especially for a "beginner". 😳🙄
@@007tallguy okay okay, good to know, you know there are many kind of beginners, if you just start learning 3D CAD, maybe start with this playlist, that is really from 0 and more "academic", taking concept after concept th-cam.com/play/PLxdtgwBLobN37r0YLmHtfoenLg9zP1EVb.html

@@ga3d_._tech528 I guess the "bombard" is good for general videos that need to keep the viewer. Tutorials, on the other hand, may benefit from slower steps, not necessarily talking slower. This is especially true for videos for beginners who are not familiar with the UI and need help with every single click.

The video looks accelerated, for example when you go for the workbench addons it is too quick to see where you click, and for beginners on freecad, this is hard to follow
Yes it is !, I advise you to watch the video first, then try to do it yourself on your own. If you want to do it in //, the video's tempo will be too high, in which case you can watch the video in French🇫🇷/🇨🇭Swiss th-cam.com/video/Bv36vOpx9Jc/w-d-xo.html , which has a much quieter tempo - that's Switzerland🫕🐮🏔! and activate the English subtitles.
Your accent is pretty thick so I understand why you might use a synthesized voice. Doesn't mean I agree with that choice. I understood your intro & outro. Brilliant video otherwise, dense with information. It will require repeated focused viewings.
Thanks for your Feedback, yes my accent is pretty "Thick" lol :-) , I'm must train to "play" with my voice, not only use it... I'm working on it, but at the moment, I stay with this unperfect solution...
@@ga3d_._tech528 Absolutely your call. Just my two cents. "thick" wasn't intended as derogatory, in hindsight it sounds that way. Apologies. You're speaking a second language and are understandable. That is one more than I can speak.
For illustrating someone new to this program, you really stink as you are so fast in showing steps for a beginner's tutorial. If you want someone to learn from you, slow down the clicking on steps in order to follow. You show your proficiency with the program and if you want someone to learn from you, show the steps a little slower...
thank you for the feedback, it's one of my first videos, in fact I skim over different elements a little quickly. on the other hand I make these videos for my teenagers, they like to see quickly and then try for themselves, there are different pedagogical approaches than following click by click the use of software, I'm more oriented towards learning by doing.
I completely get what you mean bud... Having said that I think this was an effort to appeal to english audiences - would you have clicked the video if it were titled in french ? Honestly I was just reading about the freecad 1.0 release then figured I'd check out tutorials - and it may be YT's algorithm screwing me over - but these are really the only quality videos I've seen which start off assuming you know nothing about freecad. Having said that, I agree the adaptation watches like an english dubbing of a chinese music video - at times ahead and at others behind what you are actually seeing on screen. I suddenly realized this is the pain every non-english speaker must feel trying to follow auto-generated translations into their native language. 😂 I don't know why the translation is so awkward. I guess it's tricky to get right - you'd have to have the transcript in french and watch the video then translate it sentence by sentence. I've heard that in films they have a special tool for this purpose. That allows you to annotate beginning and end of phrases, record and rearrange your translations, even speed / slow them down to fill or fit in a given window... GA3D, the content is great and it would be sad if it were lost in lack of translation. I just wish I had a solution for others who likely feelas this viewer does. Learn french? 😂 just kidding.
@@D34fmute Hi, thanks for the honest and constructive feedback. yes I always do my videos twice, the original is in Swiss French, and I do a clone in ~ robotic English. the idea is to share the content (which I hope is interesting) with as many people as possible. It's clear that for a native English speaker it's going to be a bit painful, but you have to be interested in the substance of the subject. I hope that the interest in the substance of the subject compensates for these problems. Making a TH-cam video, even a very simple one, is still hours of work, so if by adding 10% of my time, I can make two, one in French, the other in English, I figure it could be worth it for everyone. The trick is that I work with an automatic script that translates and regenerates a robotic voice more or less inspired by mine. This script works more or less well, sometimes the translations are off, as if it had been done by a translator who knows nothing about the subject in fact, ... my script is constantly evolving, and the quality will be different from one video to another, I think that before long, youtube directly offer a soundtrack regenerated automatically. My constraint is that I only want to use open-source models that are totally free and run on normal hardware. I can't afford a $100/month online service for a YT channel of free content.
