- In this FreeCAD lesson, we’ll tackle curved and complex shapes using the powerful Part Design Pipe Operation. Whether you're designing a vacuum pipe, exhaust pipe, or similar 3D models, this tutorial is perfect for learning FreeCAD part design pip techniques!
This tutorial breaks down complex FreeCAD workflows, making them beginner-friendly while teaching real-world design applications for pipes and curved shapes. Perfect for engineers, designers, and hobbyists alike!
🛠 What You’ll Learn:
We’ll focus on creating a right-angled pipe with smooth transitions, addressing challenges like undefined edges and geometry errors.
How to resolve boolean intersection errors and profile transformation issues
Using corner modes and fillets to manage abrupt path changes
Step-by-step process to create a Vacuum/Exhaust Pipe Elbow Fitting

Fun fact, I watched many many of your videos and I am patreon never seen you using reference constraints before, damn how could I live without it, so much fucking useful I was missing too much
Great. Thank you 🙂
Thank you for that. Valuable information indeed.
I always pick up a new trick or two. I thought you always had to sketch a profile for an additive pipe. I didn't know you could just take an existing face from the model as the profile. That's a cool trick. I'll have to play with that.
Great to hear 😊. You can do this with all the addative and subtractive operations. I have used it in the past for a quick dirty fix on a model when, say, I wanted one of the faces a little bit higher. It can be abused but at the end of the day I got the print that I wanted. But for this kind of application and lofting from a face of a pad it can really be useful. Shape binders are another useful one as they have a offset, so you can bind the face, create a small offset and then use that to make a thinner loft / pipe without the need of re-sketching.
Yeah, me too!
2:58 Une petite remarque concernant l'épaisseur de la partie oblique. Le fait de mettre une contrainte d'horizontalité entraine une diminution de l'épaisseur.
Or d'un point de vue industriel, il vaut mieux garder la même épaisseur pour des raisons de solidité.
De plus, en refaisant votre pièce, j'ai pensé à utiliser plutôt l'outil offset présent dans le sketcher afin de gagner du temps lors de la conception.
C'est très rapide et ça fonctionne très bien.
Excellent, thankyou.
Sempre molto interessante ottima spiegazione. Grazie.
In this simple exercise two bugs occurred in my V1.1.0Dev version release this week. However, nothing that has not learned about now. I didn't know that such a thing could be done (the 90 ° curve) with the loft function. Thanks.
👍👍👌👌
Hello! I'm getting this error while trying to sweep path with AdditivePipe:
BRepFill_Sweep::BuildEdge and the operations fails. I followed your every step but can't figure out why it's failing. Any ideas?
Have put any instructions on making drawings in your series? I am a little less than 1/2 of the videos and I do not see any mention of the drawing aspect. Regardless, this is excellent work.
If this is in regards to technical drawings then not as of yet but it's something that I want to do with some dedicated videos soon. Thank you glad you echoed.
I'm a bit confused about the numbering of this lesson. The title scene in the video says #26, but the title says it's Lesson 25. I completed a Lesson 25, which covered Pipes and Sweeps for Complex Surfaces on January 13. Shouldn't the title call this Lesson 26?
Nice spot, thank you, will update.
