Tutorial: Custom Toolbars
When you use any tool for a while you often build a more personal connection to it. Perhaps you have that old screwdriver in a drawer that’s become polished with years of use and fits your hand perfectly.In this tutorial we'll look at modifying existing toolbars and creating our own custom toolbars to personalise our #FreeCAD experience.

I am attempting to make a short #video about an #adventure I went on in #losangeles today. Longer than the #shorts I have been posting, but not a giant video essay.

I need a pack of quality #royaltyfree #music or a source where it's available openly, and for free.

I am watching tons of #tutorials on #editing and attempting some #narration too.

MY BRAIN IS EXPLODING YET STILL HUNGRY.

I NEED SOME #help AND #fedihelp is the best.

Thanks bunches of oats! O.o

Tutorial: Using the Measure tool in Version 1.0
Amongst the many changes you may have noticed in version 1, the Standard Measure tool icon has changed from an image of a tape measure to a set of Vernier Calipers. It’s not just the icon that’s changed though, the underlying measuring tools have been improved and expanded.

I got tired of going outside and looking at the thermometer, so I got a digital weather station off Temu.

But then I got too lazy to walk to the refrigerator to read the base station’s display, so I hacked together a way to connect it to the Internet. Okay, so that’s not the main reason. I did it because I wanted a fancy APRS-enabled weather station without the price tag, so in the spirit of ham radio and hacking, I set out to build my own.

Then I hooked it up to Mastodon as @weather because… okay, I don’t have a good reason for that.

Tutorial: Festive Tree Decoration, Using the Revolution Tool!
The FreeCAD community is a wonderful diverse place and certainly not everyone in the community will be involved in traditions of bringing trees into their homes and then decorating them! However a festive tree decoration, in the shape of a tree, can be a good mini project for playing with the Revolution tool. #freecad #CAD #tutorials

In a new sketch we used the Polyline tool to create this simple “A” shape with an arc at the top. We set the

In the default preferences for version 1.0 the on view para
