I appreciate this greatly. I need more sheet metal practice

Awesome - Glad this helped!

I just watched both videos -- OnShape and Solidworks. I'm an OnShape noob, and I've never used SW. But in this video, I'd have to say the two packages look equally capable.
In any case, I was surprised to see how similar the two products are. Prior to learning OnShape, my only 3D modeling experience was with Sketchup, which is completely different in most respects. I'm having a blast learning OnShape, and your tutorials are an incredible resource for me. Thanks!!

[@TooTallToby]

Yeah onshape is amazing and if anyone asks me what 3D cad they should learn, I tell them Onshape. It just has so many great tools for collaboration and really opens up the possibilities for community driven enhancements (via featurescript)

[@kobemaui9983]

Excellent, brilliant format and execution 👍

[@TooTallToby]

4:51 I did get that wrong but found later:)) Thanks Toby :)

[@TooTallToby]

Very nice and SPEEDY too!!

[@ericbaumgartner6558]

so cool! normal cut was the what I needed!

[@TooTallToby]

Aww yeah - Normal cut can be a blessing....but sometimes a curse - you have to be careful when cutting along bent edges with normal cut on / off - sometimes it truly can be the KEY!

[@KamSmiff]
