Anyone taught themselves/learned either freecad or onshape via online resources they could recommend?
Tried a couple youtubes for freecad a while back and just didn't get anywhere.
I use tinkercad for small parts.
Previously used sketchup for woodworking, but the pricing and web version just don't cut it for me. #cad #3dprinting
@alexmorse Well, you don't say which YouTube channels you found not helpful. Many people have found MangoJelly very helpful; he doesn't generally assume that you watch all his videos in order.
If you prefer the written word, try @concretedog 's FreeCAD for Makers — it's not updated for the latest FreeCAD, but the core concepts in it haven't changed.
Beginner and Intermediate FreeCAD tutorials for 3D Printing, CAD Design and Laser Cut. I’m a teacher building an online academy / school to share my knowledge of FreeCAD to help you accomplish your design and engineering tasks quicker and easier. With extensive knowledge in CAD, innovation and Design I favour Open Source alternative especial FreeCAD, Inkscape and Gimp. I try to make my content neurodivergent friendly. If you like these videos please consider donating, there are multiple ways. All money will be invested back into the channel https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/darrenbestone https://ko-fi.com/mang0 https://www.patreon.com/mangojellysolutions I also have a blog: https://mangojellysolutions.blogspot.com/ I aim to deliver specific tutorials to get to the point faster. I don’t want to deliver one tutorial that covers everything I want something more concentrated. Are you a hobbyist, professional or want to learn something new, join me and get straight to the answer.
