I'm learning freecad and I drew 2 rectangles in draft mode, one smaller than the other. I want the small one, which I drew after the big one, to sit inside but it seems to be hidden under the big one. In other drawing programs you can change the order or "bring to front". There must be a similar function here but I can't find it. Any suggestions?

Excellent video

Very cool and very easy to follow, much appreciations...time for bed now...gotta bolt!

great great and great

Hi, I'm not a beginner but I thank you anyways for your time and efforts to transmit your knowledge. Cheers from Portugal

Great tutorial video about part of the Draft workbench, Thank you very much. It would be nice to keep this tutorial applying the rest of the tools the same manner you've done this one, that would become a visual and practical Wiki of the workbench. For beginners it's worthy to emphasise that in the follow up of this Draft wb, came up Arch wb and later BIM wb. So, the Draft wb is included into the subsequents workbenches. I personally prefer to use the Sketcher wb which 2D geometric elements can be transformed to Draft 2D geometric elements and vice versa. The learning curve of FreeCAD it's a real time consuming endeavour but I think who learns how to use it has a great advantage if is dealing with another CAD software, besides it's free. I thank to all developers of this incredible piece of tool at our disposal specially to Mr. Yorik van Havre the main developer of Draft, Arch and BIM workbenches. I also thank you for your time and skills to transmit your knowledge to the community. By the way the CTRL + ALT to get a point over an element was new for me (or I already forgot...). Greetings from Portugal!

Useful workbench, when it works. Seems buggy though. I am using 0.21.2 and when creating a (square) U-shape, and try to bend one arm of the U everything is fine. Turning that bend to "Material inside", the bend jumps to the other arm of the U and messes everything up. Only works if the U has two arms of different length, which is not very useful for applications.

Many thanks for your video, excellent.

Once again, an excellent video that teaches me exactly what I need to know. One suggestion however, on future videos would you please leave any text notes you write on the screen up longer? I've done many adult training videos, and a good time is 3 times the amount of time it takes you to read the text out loud. This will only add a few additional seconds to your video, but make it much easier for students to follow without having to stop the video, back it up to read what they missed, then restart the video.

Love the low voice and pace of your step by step tutorials

I didn't find sheet metal workbench

Absolutely one of the best tutorials I've seen for any cad software. Every step covered with no presumption that the user was already familiar with the software. I learned in 12 minutes exactly what I needed to know after spending several hours playing with the software and watching several other tutorials on Freecad, including one on how to "create a sheet metal part." That other sheet metal tutorial assumed the user already knew how to use Freecad and was hard to follow because the instructor didn't describe the icons and skpped a few steps.

Inch is bad

Excellent tutorial. I learned a lot in a short amount of time. Big thank you!

Great video for us beginners. Many of the presenters of other videos don't explain their button clicks. You did a great job of explaining step by step. Thanks!

Thank you. Excellent presentation. Can that model then be converted to the flat development of it? Thus giving the cut dimensions of the blank. TIA.

Perfect tutorial. Too many instruction videos declaring to be for beginners go too fast and skip steps. Some will even wave the cursor around the screen making it difficult to follow even when using pause and go.

Thankyou 🤠Ejike

Thank you for this helpful tutorial. Good pace and well explained

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Finally I get it!

Clear to the point and easy to follow and understand. I've been using FreeCAD for over 12 Mths (Total Novice with CAD). I've become reasonably proficient in Sketcher Part, PartDesign and Curves but Draft has escaped Me. Many FreeCAD Wikki Tuts are to advanced or vague to understand. This has taught Me stuff about Draft I've been trying to figure out for ages.

I seem to be stuck. When it's time to move the rectangle to be symmetrical about the X axis, the entire rectangle turns orange and nothing moves. ??

What about the GDB aka the debugger? You need this to debug any problems

Your tutorials are magnetizing and excellent. Thank you very much! Would you be prepared to present a tutorial on designing a simple cabinet out of wood with a door and a drawer?

Thank you very much - your presentation is excellent. Do you have any more tutorials?

Another way to do this would be to click on the center point of your diagonal line then the vertical axis then use the constrain point onto object tool. Keyboard shortcut o.

Is it possible to explain how to use a dimension of an sketch object to determine the value of another dimension - even a dimension from a different sketch of a separate body or part? I don't mean from a spreadsheet, but from the objects sketch itself. For example I have a sketch with a dimension that I label 'length' in its reference box when I type in its value. In a separate part I want a dimension in that part to be twice as log as the length of that 1st part. Without using a spreadsheet - can I set the dimension in the 2nd part to be " 2 x Part1.Length "?

Thanks, great tutorial! How many years of CAD do you have under your belt?

Just learning FreeCad. I learned Solidworks before... If only they had called the Tool 'Reference Binder' instead of 'Shape' - I would of learned this tool MONTHS AGO!, ,, Arg!

Thank you, excellent explanation!

Ottimi tutorial complimenti, pero le immagini sono sempre sfuocate, almeno per quello che vedo io. saluti.

What a great intro, thank you so much for this. I've been hunting around for a decent step by step video to just grasp some of the basic principles, and this really is a great starting point. Looking forward to reviewing more of your tutorials.

Thank you..

Sheet metal wb is a very powerful tool within FreeCAD. Thank you for the video always useful for newcomers on the platform. Cheers from Portugal

Great video, thank's

wow i learnt alot thank you 👌

Great video

Camphor is an oil. Chamfer is to create a flat edge. Good video.

Good video.

❤ Thankyou very much the screen is much better I just couldn't see a thing before

you lost me when inches came in...

Awesome video tutorial! You need to do more of these. This is really easy to follow, and It actually works well when I try it. I even made a nut by myself afterwards! Thank you

Awesome

Thank you starting out on Freecad and the other methods people showed did not make much sense.

Just what I needed, thanks!

Thank you so much for the help. Congratulations 👏

Great Explanation very clear and easy to follow👍

I didn't think I would get to the end but I finally got there. This technique is very interesting, thank you for this tutorial.

Exactly what I needed. Thank you. The new threaded hole function in freecad .20 does not offer i.e. M6x0.5, so I will have to do it this way. Now I just have to figure out the correct metric dimensions for the thread I need.

And 'KABOOM' we have a playground! That was a helpful video, thank you.
