Working on rev2 of my open road racing race computer prototype. #FreeCAD Friday was finishing up the draft of the case. The electronics are done in #kicad and imported with the #KiCadStepUp workbench. Having all the parts modeled has greatly reduced the iterations on the case. Two prints of the bottom and two of the top. Both for minor corrections.

@rayko Ah, please enjoy it! 🙃

#FreeCAD #KiCad #KiCadStepUp

ooof, this is rough. No shade, I absolutely love #kicadStepUp and what easyw has accomplished is super impressive.

I have a project I'm trying to use KSU as a dependency, and looking at the code shows it just not possible in it's present state.

It's a plate of spaghet' (mmm) with tons of side effect producing functions with many globals and hardcoded assumptions all over.

I really love #KiCADStepUp for #FreeCAD but it has this one big annoyance where loading a board always creates a new document. This makes it difficult to use #KiCAD PCBs in assemblies (at least with ASM4). Trying to think of ways to improve this situation.

and while exceedingly cramped, the board and battery both do fit. I do really love the #KiCAD > #FreeCAD & #KiCADStepUp workflow. This case took ~30min to design, unoptimized 2 hours to print

As I wait for the PCBs to arrive, here some #FreeCAD + #KiCAD (mixed through the #KiCADstepup addon) porn related to the #moodmeter I'm designing as part of VOID Project #iot #esp32 #arduino #firebase #3dmodeling #interactiondesign #digitalfabrication #industrialdesign #design
