FreeCAD Version 0.17 in this video
If there is music in this video, it is legally used.
This is the most refreshing and logical approach I have seen compared to the other tutorials on this application. It doesn't leap all over randomly like the ones where the instructor has no real experience in design or knowledge of engineering principles. This instructor obviously has extensive prior knowledge of at least one of the premier solid modeling applications and makes it easy for us that can't afford that unmentionable and exorbitant (starts with an S) application, but has found an alternative in FreeCAD. Thank you very much.
Or start with an I (i) with the name or the company starting with an A
Thank you. You’ve made my learning experience a breeze.
Best tutorial I ever have experienced!
Before I retired I sat daily in 15 years with Autodesk Inventor.
None of the expensive consultants our company paid for could even think of
matching your excellent ability to explain and instruct in an understandable way.
I have already mailed the link to my friend, he´s newly retired and eager to get going.
Hats off and thank you so very much!
What a nice thing to hear thank you very much. I started this channel out of frustration of CAD being not accessable from my university. Comments like that make me feel like I'm accomplishing my mission
Oh god this tutorial is everything I wanted.Thanks a lot for such a awsome tutorial
Great job. No extra bs and straight to the point.
Excellent tutorial, learned a ton about good practices and useful tools in FreeCAD
This is the kind of tutorial I’m looking for. Thank you so much.
Best tutorial on TH-cam, thank you.
thank you - gosh - thank you... was pulling my hair out getting started this helped me a lot ....
Thank you !! this is the most clear and easily understood freecad tutorial that i've seen so far. thank you !
first video that actually made sense of getting started in freecad, thank you
Great tutorial! So much valuable info in a decent amount of time! Its much appreciated!
非常感謝你！這影片對我有極大幫助。祝你一生富貴平安。
This is the best tutorial I have seen in ages, on any subject. Thank you for the clear explanations and and especially for covering all the tools.
This tutorial is top banana. It takes me back to 'old school' Solid works type of format. Haven't used a CAD system for years but I could follow this with ease.
Very good tutorial, even with all the accidental escapes. I’m just getting into cad and finding the right instructions for me isn’t easy, everything has to “line up” so to speak. No music, no tangents about off topic stuff, you aren’t trying to be funny. I sure appreciate it, thank you so much.
By far the best FreeCAD tutorial I have seen, and I've seen two now. Joking! I've seen several, this is by far the best. Thank you for providing it and uploading it.
Best FreeCAD tutorial out there. Thanks for this!
This should be the first result for CAD modelling tutorials even when searching for other software. Very approachable, lays out all the fundamentals, and would propagate some FOSS instead of proprietary garbage. Great video!
This tutorial is awsome, thanks alot man! I am just strating and started in parts and erasing objects with objects to create holes and stuff. This is much more efficient, reliable and manageabele from my point of view. Thanks again, I subbed.
Thank you so much for making this video. After looking at several this is the best one!
Thank you for this. Like others, I'm new to FreeCAD and of the dozen or so videos I've seen so far, this is the first one I've seen mention the construction geometry toggle. That'll be very helpful. Thanks. Picking up things here and there with other videos but I think this was the most helpful.
I am including CAD as part of my workflow and this video is very helpful! Great vid!
설명이 간단 명료해서
많은 도움이 되었습니다.
감사합니다.
Been going through many videos trying to find a way forward in my construction project involving lots of angles and geometry. FINALLY this video taught me what I needed to know (construction geometry). All while delivering it in such a calm voice. Really helped me out, thanks!
Good tutorial, it is what a need to start sketching on freecad. Thank you
Fantastic video! These are my first steps in learning FreeCAD and I'm glad I found a structured course, going from introduction to more complex things in a smooth way. Not like many other FreeCAD courses that are jumping around like crazy from one subject to another without any logical connection between two parts, leaving a NOOB like me in the dark guessing what has happened.
Not sure, but seen the maturity in which you give your courses, I think you must have a long career in mechanical stuff and lots and lots of experience...
Well done and I hope to see more sophisticated courses from you in due time.
One area I'm especially interested in is designing 3D models like IC footprints and stuff like this (LEDs, resistors, transistors,....) to be used on PCB boards to (almost) reflect the final end result. I'm in software/electrical engineering, you know....
Thanks
This video was 10 times better than others i tried to watch
"And I've accidentally exited my sketch again..." 😀 Good job on the tutorial. I learned a lot. I'm gonna start using FreeCAD now like a boss!
Thank you! FreeCAD is an awesome software
@@JokoEngineeringhelp I am a experienced user of SolidWorks and Inventor. I started learning Blender for artistic fun. Blender actually convinced me that there can be open-source products that competes in quality with expensive "professional" products. Now going to learn FreeCad. Especially since I live in a 3rd world country, if you live in a 3rd world country the "professional" CAD software is honestly way too expensive... Best part is I can start my own personal projects on FreeCad. The open-source developers are the heroes of the information age.
@@theogropp9015 I couldn't have said it better myself. Best wishes learning FreeCADsend me a message if you have any problems.
@@theogropp9015 you should start using an open source operating system as well if your not already :). I use FreeBSD. It's nice. Linux is good too of course.
@@JokoEngineeringhelp NOT a beginner, but somehow got stuck in a rotate mode, can't even draw the first line. NOT a good beginning.
Excellent and logical tutorial. THANK YOU!
Thanks! This is an awesome intro to Freecad. I'm looking forward to much more!
Excellent 25.27 minutes for beginners to get to know the basics...!!!
Thank you for the simple but effective video. I have learnt so much from this video.
Amazing video.. Complete beginner and I feel ready to jump in now. Thank you
Thank you! I hope you have fun! This is another beginner video you may have seen.
th-cam.com/video/Odr5viqPwkc/w-d-xo.html
Superb intro to FreeCAD sketcher Joseph! Just as relevant in Jan 2021. Thanks so much! Subscribed.
Thank you. Good tutorial especially that construction geometry feature.
Great stuff, this really gave me a good start! Now I'm gonna go out and search for a video that explains procedurally generating parts of the sketch..
Well done. I've been looking for a video that shows the basics of drawing lines, circles, etc and making a 2-D layout. This is simple and goes step by step
A well presented, clear and concise tutorial for FreeCAD beginners. Thank you! (doffs hat)
This tutorial is perfect, you covered the primary critical applications of a sketcher. I just re learned more about freecad than I remembered from a few years ago! I will be using this knowledge to build replacement parts. Thanks! ps I watched the video on 2x speed and it was VERY CLEAR STILL!
Thank you for making this. This is different enough from multiple professional CAD software programs that I am trained in that it requires good training videos like this. I have over 12 years in Autodesk software like inventor and fusion 360 and SolidWorks and Mastercam so it's nice to finally find somebody making good solid instructional videos in this amazing FOSS.
I hope this will be the same as the RealThunder fork version I was guided to. I need to redesign everything I've created in the last 10 years in freecad and this is a good start.
This exactly what I was looking for, right on and straight to the point :-)
At last, a video what explains properly, Thank You
Thank you for this. All other tutorials give me a headache, yours make everything click. I finally get around how FreeCAD works.
you are the king in this field, your teaching is excellent
Thanks for a great introduction to sketching in FreeCAD. I looked at a lot of other tutorials but they al made me nauseous with the mouse running around like crazy. And they did not give the proper explanation of why something was done. You on the other hand gave great explanations of what the various tools are and how they are used. You also taught me the importance of arriving at a constrained model.
Thank you for making this!
very helpful, this is IMO is my special course to 3d modelling, as a step to 3d printing parts with freecad, all reviews I found on Freecad were old enough to ignore after watching your playlist sir, thank you
Very useful, your videos are the best FreeCAD tutorials out there!
Absolutely the best video I have watched about FreeCAD and the Sketcher workbench, you explain what the tools do where as all other videos make a sketch using the tools with little or no explanation of the tool and just plough on expecting everyone watching to know what’s happening. You are a true TEACHER because you explain each tool as you use it and make everything so clear.
I am totally new to CAD and have been so frustrated with the Sketcher workbench that I have avoided it and knowingly done models incorrectly but in a way that I could get the result I needed to print 3D models, after watching your video I clearly understood the basics of sketcher, obviously I will need a lot of practice but I now find it enjoyable to use the Sketcher workbench and get the sketch fully constrained and more importantly easy to edit. THANK YOU
Best video I've seen in a long time. I was laughing a lot at accidental sketch leaving too :)
"keep your seats", love it. keep it coming and thank you for the good vid!
Thanks! This is one of the first comments I've had on a joke I've made. I think one of my favorite jokes was one of my first few videos was at 4:58 here:
th-cam.com/video/27obh0Mi7D4/w-d-xo.html
Aha! I bumped into this video while stuck on a project, and the part at 18:04 about construction geometry is what I needed to clean up my sketch so I could use the pad tool later. Thanks for a great video!
Good and usefull video for me . Just start to use this,.. 😊
An intelligent human being ,
thanks
Excellent video, professional presentation skills too. This has sold me on learning FreeCAD better. I hope you escape your escape habit :)
best way for understanding the Sketcher workbench in freecad
Wow, thanks for such a great crash course to FreeCAD!
Fantastic walk-through, thank you
Well done. I finally understand how constrains work.
Excellent video - thanks. Clear & concise.
I came from using AutoCAD and Solid Edge, I had access to them with a student license I can no longer reach since I had to replace my hard drives, shame I didn't write down creditentals and stuff for my accounts, so I have to get an alternative for both. I tried watching a couple of other tutorials on FreeCAD, but this 25 minutes made me finally understand how it works, at least the things I want to use it for. This video reminds me of my initial learning of AutoCAD by my mechanical drawings teacher, not the perfect on the first time crap, showing mistakes, but showing how to fix them too, that teacher of mine unfortunately doesn't teach anymore, it was quite nostalgic watching this video. Liked and subscribed, that's the least I can do in return for the lesson!
Thanks, Very helpful just getting stating out and in this cad stuff and FreeCAD seems pretty simple to use . I just have to keep witching your videos .
Really enjoyed this video, you are a superb teacher !!!
Just great, very good job done here, you explain in a very simple way and right to the point. I came to this vid with 0 knowledge in 3D modeling and a very eager to learn FreeCad, right now I feel I can start to use FreeCad in basic mode, Rome wasn't build in 1 one day but at first it get modeled with basic skills in FreeCad haha. (y)
Man is it hard to find someone who can explain things clearly. You my man were clear and concise with how to use FreeCAD. A brilliant tutorial for a first-timer. Thank you for sharing :)
If Freecad was a descent progam, you'd work it out yourself. Unfortunately it's not.
andy parry that’s just not true
Agre with you . He does a realy good job on those videos 😊
Excellant this is what I needed. Thank you!
thanks man, your approach to tutorials is really good. Kudos to use the metric system even though you are familiar with imperial.
Wow I finally know how to approach my problem. Thank you 😁
Excelent video. I thought FreeCAD was terrible due to a bad tutorial I saw since it seemed to lack a lot of features and it was a pain to work with but now I see it was just that tutorial.
Thanks for bringing quality content. Now I'll definetly will try to switch to FreeCAD :)
Thank you. I got started with 3D printing recently, and have gotten to the point where I want to progress beyond simply printing to designing my own parts/models. As someone just getting started with FreeCAD, and not coming from a CAD background of any sort, I found your video to be incredibly helpful in understanding the basic concepts - shapes, constraints, design intent, and taking it from a 2D sketch to a 3D model. Subscribed and looking forward to picking up a new skill!
Thanks, good luck with your CAD journey!
Even though you made this 3 years ago, your helping people to this day(me).
Really great video! Thank so much! Like the other comments I find your approach logical and possible to follow. Thanks again!
After one of the ME's at work helped me get started, I used FreeCAD 0.17 a few times and liked it, but was totally lost in 0.18. Now I believe I can resume using FreeCAD 0.18. Thanks.
Meanwhile, I've been using OpenSCAD, but I found it tedious for anything complex. I was planning to commit to Fusion360, but they've changed the "free" license too much for my taste. I'm a hobbyist and a Maker so I really like the idea of open-source software.
This is a good video. Some of the others had me lost. I can't seem to find any good help doing CAD and 3D modeling for some of my projects so its time to do it myself. Learning FreeCAD and Blender too right now.
I really enjoy your teaching 👍
Great tutorial! Thanks for putting these out. I am a high school shop teacher and teaching the correct way to use CAD is an area I need to improve on. I am loving your Freecad videos. Thanks again!
I love CAD education. Send me an email in the description if I can help. My wife might go into teaching too.
Hello,
indeed the tutorial was very helpful. I'm switching from Fusion to FreeCad, I need to find my automatisms again. In this sense, this kind of video is very useful, because you explain it well and take the necessary time.
I would love for a series on these taking you from sketching like this, and producing a simple product (say an enclosure for a Raspberry Pi).
Used Fusion360 on and off for about 3 months now but I still find it difficult to do even basic things in it. I watched 2 of your videos and I've done a part that would've took me a few hours to make in F360 in 15 minutes. Thanks for sharing your knowhow with us!
Very helpful. I subscribed. I want to make something sort just like this, to connect a ball screw housing to an aluminum extrusion. Perfect. Thank you.
One of the better FreeCAD videos so far just fix the leaving sketch issue (some sort of hotkey conflicting bind i guess?).
Is there a follow up video with the pad (extrude) tools? I see you have a few i will make my way through them. I tried fusion 360 with lience change i dont want to touch it, it will only get more restricted in future. I also absolutely hate the cloud saving/ computing crap!
Dude, Thank you so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
That was a great tutorial, thanks for that! I'm really trying to break away from having to use AutoCAD in a VM as it's annoying having to do that but it's hard to learn something new as they do stuff so differently. That escape thing sounds annoying but glad you mentioned it since I was trying to figure out how to even draw, did not realize it actually closed the whole sketch. One thing I really wish they would do though is allow you to type dimensions on the fly when you drag a line. This is one thing AutoCAD does and it saves so much time.
Thanks for the comment, good luck on your journey with FreeCAD!
I'm not even a pro, I'm a graphic designer, I just need to design a personal project... this is like finding money! 😍 Thank you so much love your tutorial, the only one that made sense and didn't "lose" me... adhd 😅 again, thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Was about to give up. Before I found your video, the slope of the learning curve was constraint on a high angle 😉, you made it walkable, thanks. Subscribed.
Thank you! People like you are the reason I'm here.
Wonderful!!!!
I have been repeatedly frustrated by FreeCAD. While your video didn't address my specific issues, it was still informative. You are a good teacher. The concepts build as you go, you remain calm, and you describe your actions and explain the reasoning behind them. Great job. I'll look at your videos to see if you address this, but in case I don't find it: it would be really awesome if you could do a video showing how to use an external STEP file (or multiple files) as a basis for generating geometry usable in FreeCAD. I'm an electrical engineer and I've designed a couple of boards. I'm trying to learn how to create an enclosure for these boards using FreeCAD, after which I intend to use the Path workbench to generate tool paths for a homebrew CNC. I'm having a lot of difficulty with this. I can figure out jenky ways to do it, but it feels like I don't know what I'm doing. I have used Sketchup for years to create 3d printable objects...but I want to start using solid modelling instead for both 3d printing and CNC milling.
Many thanks to you for taking the time to do this. It is a service to the community. Even though I find FreeCAD frustrating, it is great software and I believe my frustrations are due to lack of understanding.
thank you for the info. and training..
this is the best explanation i get!!
Love the vid man!
Everything I needed to know lol
То чувство, когда учишься черчению и иностранному языку одновременно.
Спасибо вам огромное.
Of all the videos I watched yours was the easiest to follow. This coming from a guy who learned mechanical drawing with a T square, triangles and a lead holder In 1978👍👍👍
I got the school prize for "engineering drawing" in 1978, still my greatest achievement! T square, set squares, drawing clipped on to the board.
This was very helpful thanks keep it up
This tutorial rocks. I almost gave up on freecad, but this video actually makes it look like it is possible to learn. Excellent work I am subscribing
Thanks for the comment. I had a similar experience. Once you get rolling with it, it is a fast and easy software. I take requests if you ever have a question on doing something.
@@JokoEngineeringhelp Thank you for taking the time. I am going to practice all these tools I saw on the video. i will be watching your videos thanks
Thank you!! Very well explained.
Mate! The best tutorial ever!! Thank you so much for helping another 'Old Fart', (sometimes known as Onearm), who was quite proficient in Sketchup. I nearly gave FreeCad up because of installation problems in Manjaro. The forum was as useful as 'tits on a bull!' Please make more videos especially showing how to draw a floor plan to 1:100 scale.
Thanks.
Thank you very much. The video is really helpful.
🤗🤗 Thank you, I have watched many videos of so called " starting freecad" that were clear as mud. You are clear and concise and have helped me understand more about freecad in just a few minutes than all the others combined. Again thank you.
On the other hand, CAD software force you to design your pieces the way they think it should be done, unlike a program like Houdini where you have complete access to the relationship graph of all the elements of the part
Thank you sir fantastic tutorial.
Stuck in isolation due to Covid19...so thought id learn a new skill. I was great at technical drawing when at school but that was done in those days with a board,a t square and set squares.
Most other tutorials are some hyper kid whizing all over the screen just barely telling you what they are doing "Um ill do that and then you get this but i dont want um that so then um this"
Yours is a simple well explained basic "getting started" tutorial clearly showing the process and gradually adding in new elements and tools as we go. Even the simple "You always want your drawing to be green!" was a revelation.
I cant thank you enough!
Thanks! I hope isolation and FreeCAD both serve you well
Thank you /looking for this to start on FreeCAD
