- Welcome to part 9 of the total beginners course to FreeCAD 0.20. In this lesson we will how to create containers with lids that have a lip for a close fit. We will be using the fundamentals we have learn in the FreeCAD tutorials and put this into practice by building two containers. We will learn both a revolve and sweep workflow to tackle different shaped boxes. This course is aimed to teach the fundamentals of free CAD understanding the basics but delivering via teaching you different workflows.
We aim to teach you freeCAD in a practical way.

Looking at your playlists, I see you've created an incredible number of FreeCAD videos. Thank you for your generosity! If they're all half as good as the first 8 in this series (as I expect they are) the community owes you a debt which we can help repay as Patreon subscribers or with donations. I hope others join me in doing so.
Thank you for your kind words. It's been a honor for me to do these videos for the community and those like yourself who have become Patreons or who have donated no matter how small is much appreciated and helps keep this channel running
23:44 Instead of cloning the sketch one might use shapebinder yet again, binding to the outer top four edges of the newly created additivepipe (I used the blue one instead of green). Then simply pad that shapebinder object. Much simpler than cloning with draft and then manually positioning.
I needed to print out a couple of prototype models and briefly checked out a couple or so FreeCAD tutorial channels randomly till I hit yours. Here I am at Lesson #9 and counting, till I come close to mastery of FreeCAD! Your content, style and delivery altogether are among the best I've ever come across on the web. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for such a supportive comment, so glad your finding the videos useful and helping you progress. Thank you so much for feeding back.
Cute move using a sheep icon for the clone tool - reminding us of Dolly.
this channel is soo underrated
Amazing!
It feels so good to get away from Fusion 360 finally.. This series is making it possible. Thanks again man.
Glad to hear your enjoying and it's helping with the transition.
Thanks for this video. Yesterday, I made a small box for my earplugs. It didn't take long to draw on freecad, and the 0.25mm tolerance level was perfect.
Glad it helped and thank you for the feedback on the tollerances
Modified the 2nd exercise design to make a glasses case, printing now. Thanks!
Fantastic!, always good to hear what people are making from the videos.
Let's hit the subscribe button guys. This guy's efforts deserve our support. He's done his part ...
Thank you so much :) :) :)
Glad I found your channel and content. Just getting started with freecad and 3d printing. Was struggling to create a pool return eye until I found your videos. Definitely have to train your thought process to think differently to manipulate objects in cad.
Welcome to the journey. All I can say is that you will get frustrated but give it time and you will get there. Thanks for the comments and glad the Freecad videos are helping.
This is boarding on magic.
Excellent!
Thank you
Thanks for the crystal water explanation, as always. 👍
My pleasure!
Exactly what I have been looking for! Donated!
Thank you so much, glad it was of help and thank you for the donation.
Great to see the channel has grown so much - regular high quality content that other channels should aspire to! (including mine!)
Thanks, I've kept an eye on yours as well, it's a tough topic the tech industry to get viewer's . I've been recommending your channel to a number of trainees at work who wanted to learn python. One of them worked through the NFT tutorials. Good to see your still growing though and your still at it.
@@MangoJellySolutions Ah thank you! Yes, the NFT videos got more views than normal. I wouldn't buy any personally, but as a coding exercise it was fun.
I just tried to donate on Ko-Fi but my Paypal is saying "rate limit reached" - so I will have to investigate that first!
Your FreeCAD videos are excellent, I watch "Explaining Computers" channel, and he was bemoaning the poor income from YT, and even he has done a channel update video explaining why he's started to add Amazn affiliate links in the description!
@@python360 No probs sending traffic your way, you have such a variety of topics I am surprise that the algorithm hasn't been kind and sent a lot more traffic to you. I don't understand it sometimes. Thanks for trying with kofi :) Yes I know what you mean about the income, one of the reasons why I offer Patreon and Ko-Fi which has helped save up for a 3D Printer (now starting to look into which one to get) so can expand and it will help me take the odd half day off as extra holiday from work to produce more content. But yeh you won't get rich on youtube money wise but you will knowledge wise.
Thank you for making this series, so helpful for getting started with modeling.
You're very welcome!
So many good tips and methods in this one! Thank You
Great to hear, glad you enjoyed 😁👍
Thank you for the tutorial! Keep them coming ✌✌✌
Your welcome 👍👍😁More to come!
Thank you very much. Great learning for me 🙂
Great to hear your still following 👍
Nice lesson. Thanks!
Glad you liked 👍👍
your tutorials are awesome. thank you
Glad you like them! 👍👍👍😊😊❤️
Awesome video, thank you
I have learned a lot again, they are very well and calmly explained and done for. Thanks
Thank you, great to see your enjoying the videos.
Another gem..Thanks
Thanks 😁
For those of you who may just be learning FreeCAD here are some keybinds that I have found useful, keep in mind that keybinds in FreeCAD are contextual depending on the workbench you're in and what you have selected may change the key
G: This will tell freecad you want to use sketcher's Geometry tools while you're in the sketcher. If you hit the M key it will use the poly line tool and while using the poly line tool you can hit m to cycle through the different Modes allowing you to create nearly any type of geometry you want just using these 2 keys.
E: While you have objects that are valid targets for the Equal constraint in the Sketcher it will apply to.
C: Creates a Coincidence constraint
H: Constrains Horizontally
V: Constrains Vertically
L: Creates a horizontal Length constraint
I: Creates a vertical distance constraint (sorry I have thought of a way to remember this other than an I is vertical, but so is a lowercase L so it doesn't really work, just remember the L one and you'll know by process of elimination :P)
S: Adds a Symmetry constraint
R: Constrains the Radius.
There are a bunch more you can find under Sketch->Sketcher Geometries/Sketcher Constraints but these are the ones that I find the most useful for what I have been doing.
Thank you very much for these concise and well explained examples! Just started learning FreeCAD a week ago, when assembled my first Prusa Mk3s, but sometimes it's just daunting how the interface is complicated, unintuitive and functionality seems either to be missing or letting the software crash. Still, I want to stick to FreeCAD since it's opensource and your videos are definitely helping me in that.
Great to hear that you are finding these tutorials useful. Freecad does have a learning curve and I know exactly what your going through. Freecad takes a very different approach from other CAD packages and I found that when I first started coming from traditional cad. Stick with it, you will get there. Welcome to the journey
I know that feeling. One year ago, started This journey, learning, frustating and now i Can say: you'll get it
"but sometimes it's just daunting how the interface is complicated, unintuitive and functionality seems either to be missing or letting the software crash". Dude, I thought the same until to decide really put the hands on this. This mango jelly guy help a lot, but how he said "Freecad does have a learning curve (...) Stick with it, you will get there" 😊
Really good, only started today, great explanations
Glad your enjoying, welcome to the journey
Thanks!
Thank you 😊😊😊😊😊👍👍👍
Nice video....grettings from Zagreb Croatia
Thank you,, great to see where you are watching from 👍
@@MangoJellySolutions ..from Zagreb Croatia...
I did a few similar objects but I used different approach. I created object as an one whole body and then new body that I used to cut first one. I find it easier to handle if cuting shape is more complicated. With that approach you can even change cutting shape without changing base of the object.IT also alows cut shaped in all three dimensions, liek having gap not parallel to the axe but, for example, curved.
I believe there is space for some dedicated tool just for this kind of jobs that would allow user to create surface in the shape of cut with no thickness and then set cutting tolerances for specific surfaces on the shape.
thanks for the tutorial. these beginner courses have been an excellent guide for me to get into FreeCAD! Can't wait for the nxt one!!!
any recommendation shld I tackle from your playlist for me to work on after this beginner series?
Cool glad your enjoying. Good question, I would try and think about a simple project and give it a try to get some modelling time under your belt. It's always hard to think of something to model. Something small or something that has multiple parts that you can model and put together as an assembly (be going through how to assemble multiple parts in a t utorial in the future). Once you start experimenting then if you get stuck you can have a look at the videos to find something that may move you on. Come to think about it. I really need to add some exercises or project work to the channel and finish off that formula 1 car
Would be interesting tutorial to place male and female threads on the round box top and bottom so that they can be screwed together. Great video - thanks very much
Very good idea, I am going to leave that one for a little while until my 3d printer comes so I can show them fitting together so I can take in account tolerances for the thread. Great idea I will add it to the list
Yes, the tolerances are really something to bring the "real world" into the modeling and it's great that you include them in your tutorials like this one. Thanks again.
I am new to CAD and enjoy your videos. This is a bit too advanced for me but would like to learn these skills. Do you have suggestions for me to get to this level. Thank You
I would still give the video a go. I am guessing you are following along with the series or have you jumped in at this point? If not worth looking back at the earlier videos. Even if you can't complete them then just move on to the next one. The is a learning curve and the more you experiment and try the better you get. Also find a simple project that is worth investing your time in, something you really want to build so you can apply your learning as you go.
Where do you suggest I begin with your lesson?
So what is the difference between using revolve over revolution or vice versa. I did use one then the other in the first round container when I realized it. so I went back and changed it back to revolution on the bottom. The only problem was with revolution I had to "close" the sketch.
So revolve is part design workflow with a closed sketch and revolution is a part workflow with open, closed sketch, edges, vertices etc. Revolution is a much more flexible way of doing it as your not big down with it being closed geometry allowing you to make surfaces as well as solid. And if your revolving vertex then you will have a compound of edges.
Unable to select the three lines and create the geometry for the bottom... ???
I don't get the sketch when hiding the Revolution and selecting sketch
At the poin 15:57 added external geometry from section. What might be wrong, because I don't get point to shapes edge? I have tested with two times with different work and result was same. External geometry only draw infinite line and couple dots what are quite near shapes middle.
Got solved problem.
@@jukkalehto1587 how?
Can someone help me, please? I try to follow this, and everything goes okay before I need the shapebinder. Once I select the lines, the shapebinder option turns gray. What do I need to do?
how to draw a spine with a specific length
I don't quite understand why we can't move the original objects, but most clone them first...
It's to do with the underlying geometry and the planes they are placed upon. If you are referencing the base planes then that geometry doesn't move but your body will causing all sorts of 'interesting' results. It's far safer if you want to move objects just to get an idea of how they will look is to use a temporary clone.
The binder stays with the TOP part rather than moving to the BOTTOM part. What gives? I've been over this several times.
Oh wow thanks! But this is so convoluted it makes my head hurt. I just wish freecad wasn't so unintuitive. But thanks for your effort, cheers.
It's too bad you're not using the RealThunder branch of FreeCAD, as its pad and pocket features make adding a lip to any solid trivial.
I must look at this branch, I keep on meaning to but still haven't got to it. Thanks for the heads up. Hopefully they will merge that into to the main branch.
Which software?
It's freecad. 0.20 and 0.21
16:50 seems like very inefficient workflow - need to click "Add" button for each single edge. IMHO there should be a way to multiselect the edges without having to press "Add edge" each time. In fact, in case like this, where the edges for the Pipe are the outer profile of the part, there should be an intelligent way to select all those edges in one go - similar to how Blender does it (Alt+CLICK on edge to select all edges in loop). Sorry if I'm being annoying, I'm in a process of learning freecad after years of using Blender "as a CAD tool" and it aint easy.
Wonderful, thank you!'
