FreeCAD: Increase Your Sketching Speeds and Sketch Faster With This Single Tool
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ต.ค. 2022
- Out of all the FreeCAD workbenches we use the Sketcher the most. The quicker our CAD sketching can be the sooner we can get our models completed. With this FreeCAD tutorial I will demonstrate how to create unconstricted and constricted lines, arcs (bith tangent and non tangent) using a single tool and without the need to constantly switch between tools allowing you to get you sketch geometry down quicker.

Thats pretty cool, 2 weeks into freecad now and feel quite comfortable with it thanks to you Mango, cheers, dont like the other cloud based options because of its internet reliability
Great to hear your progress. Yes cloud based options are not for me., I rather own than rent especially when opening my work in a years time is the hands of a third party still supporting the features I use.
@@MangoJellySolutions The free versions of online tools have a precondition that the free users have to release their models as royalty-free models. But many users give an obscure name to their models to make them undiscoverable. At the end, no one is happy.
Good tip! I use PolyLine all the time but didn't know about the M key.
Great time saver! Thanks, I was not aware of that! And btw, without even mentioning it, you revealed another cool trick of which I was not aware: assigning a diameter to multiple circles at the same time, resulting in equality constraints!
Great to hear you found it useful. There is loads more tips to come 😁
Agree, Polyline is a great tool.
@4:43 I had never noticed the possibility of aligning the end of a line with respect to another point of the sketch. 😎
Thanks for the tip and for your informative videos !

@ 4:43 je n'avais jamais remarqué la possibilité d'aligner la fin d'une ligne par rapport à un autre point de l'esquisse. 😎
Merci pour l'astuce et pour vos vidéos instructives !
Thank you 🙏
I like the short and simple, thanks 👍✌🥃
Thank you for this quick useful tip !!!
Marvelous video!
You just saved me a ton of time. Thank you.
Thank you for this.
Thanks I did not know that.
Very helpful. Thanks.
Thanks for the tips. I started using Freecad thanks to your videos. Great content
Great to hear and thank you. Glad you liked the videos 👍😁
This is super helpful, thank you.
Great tip, thank you. Cheers
Polyline is so awesome indeed !! thanks
Brilliant thanks so much
Thanks for the tip.
Great tip. Thank you. 🙂
Thank you nice tutorial
Wow! Thanks!
Great help, this has sped me thru designs faster. I used to draw basic objects and cut them or booleaned them. I just designed a small engine piston ring compressor for a friend who has a shop. Using this vid I just drew it straight-away. It is basically a shower curtain ring - ha. But doing it this way and adding constraints seems so much more sophisticated.
Great to hear its speed up your process. Takes a little getting used to but it's a great tool to master. Glad you enjoyed and thanks for sharing what you used it for.
Thank you Mango for this great tip.
No problems, glad you enjoyed 👍😁
That's great, thanks a lot!
thank you
Nice tip!
I have always avoided using polyline. With this tip I might consider it an option.
thank you bro thank you
that's handy
great lesson ....4x time savings ...thanks
Wow! I had never realized that a polyline reduces the labor by such an extent.
Having used Sketchup before taking up FreeCAD, I used to miss the inference engine.
But polyline serves the same purpose (trick at 5:00).
Of course, while SketchUp's inference engine can apply constraints on the fly, it lacks most of the constraints offered by FreeCAD.
BTW a "mil" is an officially used unit name, equal to 0.001 inch.
So the unit 'mm' should be pronounced as "em em", and not as "mil".
after reading comments .....quicky single lessons are great
Thank you for the feedback, I look to make some more of these quick tips for the future.. I tried to get this one into a youtube short but that needs a bit of editing
FINALLY...!!! a tool that allows me to model gerotors quickly and easily, while the gerotor workbench is released. do you know if such workbench is being made...???
I have had a look but I cannot see any reference to such workbench being built, but thank you for sharing what you are using the tool for :)
Almost perfect but it is missing ability to add dimensions while drawing, just like in F360. A cherry on top would be removing constraint requirement before padding in Part Design and then you are almost good as F360.
How we can give thickness to an object created with polyline tool having 24 points?? Please make a video about it.
But how can be precise constrains from beggining not in the end? Like in other cad softwares, for eg keeping spacebar pressed can constrain direction, when you reach the perpendicular to the desired point it shows you somehow, etc
What key do you press to have all the line automatically connect to each other, without having to individually constraints the points on each of the lines together, thanks. I'm new to freecad.
You need to tick the auto constraints when you come into the sketcher. It will be on the left hand side. That means when you place your mouse over a constraint it will connect to that constraint
@@MangoJellySolutions thanks
M key, Mango key?
Lol😁😁😁😁
@@MangoJellySolutions Love the vids!
