#FreeCAD (https://www.freecad.org/features.php?lang=en) is good but missing enough features to make me truly miss #SolidWorks

If pirating SolidWorks or using FreeCAD are my two options I'm actually not sure what I'd pick.

Honestly? If there was a #CAD3d option with a reasonable subscription ($50-200/year) that didn't make me relearn my workflow I'd definitely pay for that.

Onshape is online only and makes all your designs public unless you pay them $1500 a year, which.... nah. Hell nah.

I have to share this in hopes that someone will understand. I got this file from, let's say, a major electromechanical manufacturer's official web site. Someone standardized on this naming convention for...mating fastener locations. (Mechanical engineer snicker) #engineering #solidworks #holes

She's in frame! Just a whole boatload of notches and tabs left to do so it can be precisely assembled with confidence without too much fettling.

Fischertechnik „Schneckenteil m=1,5“ in SolidWorks nachkonstruiert.

Mich von SolidEdge umzugewöhnen wird noch etwas dauern, aber das werte ich als ersten Erfolg.
