On this #FreeCADFriday I encourage everyone who cares about FreeCAD and open-source in general to reach out to the #FreeCAD Project Association and demand they adopt a ZERO TOLERANCE stance on AI contributions.

It's...
theft!
destroying our planet!
enriching, empowering awful people like Thiel
why we cannot have RAM or clean drinking water.

Read the notes. It's clear that AI only begets more AI "This AI contribution is shit, lets use another AI tool to vet it! derp!"

Creating a light switch cover for rocker-style light switches because I know I need to rewire this light switch eventually, but for now, not accidentally flipping it will do. One holds magnets with glue, the other is a print-in-place model without the need for glue. Toggleable via spreadsheet between 6mm and 8mm magnet diameters. #FreeCADFriday #3DPrinting

A stejně jsem pro #FreeCADFriday něco vyškrábnul 🙂

Držák na kalkulačku pro #IKEA #Skadis nástěnku. Samozřejmě je to modul pro háčky, které jsem vytvořil už dřív a sdílel na #Manyfold 👇

#FreeCAD

I created this cable organizer in #FreeCAD some time ago. It's a modular design of stackable boxes with variable widths.

Wrote a FreeCAD macro, which makes the process incredibly efficient to export many widths and styles to STL with a single click. Even the animation was generated using a small script to showcase the assembly.

FreeCAD is just the best!! 😎

#FreeCADFriday Very much still learning, but I thought a milk bottle I used this morning would make an interesting thing to try and model.
@freecad my #freecadfriday is I'm tinkering designing a new #CNC machine.. eventually will be a 4 axis hot wire foam cutter.
Working on new Workshopshed plans #FreeCADFriday
Once again it's #FreeCADFriday! Hope the week has treated you all well. What are you working on at the moment in #FreeCAD? #CAD

I know, I'm late for #freecadfriday but I'm currently switching back from Autodesk Fusion 360 to #FreeCAD to get rid of my Windows VM and Autodesk's cloud #enshittification stuff.

I still have to (re-)learn the workflow and tools but just finished my first two models: protective caps for the Zeiss 7x40 NVA German military binoculars. Printed with TPU. My printer somehow messed up the edges on the eyepiece protection but they work 👍

On #FreeCADfriday I designed and 3D printed an adapter to connect my shop vacuum to my planer. Simple, but satisfying.
