Thank you SO much! As a beginner, I've bounced back and forth in so many CAD programs that all I achieved was being confused! I've learned more useful informationin this 30 minute video than I have in weeks trying to learn on my own!!
I love that when you speak, you are speaking to regular. And you are showing them what can the interesting about a new hobby. And maybe even leading them to a new career. I can tell you care about the topic. But, most importantly, I can tell that you care about the people watching.
LMAO!!! After slicing, Cura 4.1 says it will take over 9 hours, Cura 4.8 says 7 3/4, and PrusaSlicer says 3 1/2. Good tutorial btw. Very straight forward and clear. Thanks.
*spends 4 hours trying to muddle through freecad self-learning* *gets frustrated and takes a nap* *finds this video* *finishes the print in 28+2m* You sir, are an angel. Thank you.
Thank you so much! Iv had a printer for years but never knew how to design my own parts. I now need a simple spacer ring and cannot find anything online. I found your video and it helped me through completely!
Im a native german speaker, but after a few minutes im so concentrated to what Dr. Vax is saying, I sometimes think he talks to me in german, so perfectly understandable he explains this stuff. Great!
@@grahambate3384 So... you both had a translator that night, during your dance? Or, you just listened to each other's gibberish, and called it a conversation?
@@Seemsayin no translator. I said to my wife I think your grandmother ask to come back to her place and she keep me warm for the nite. I must b a good guesser
@@grahambate3384 If you don't mind me asking... What was the point of everything you said? If you don't speak any Russian, and didn't have an interpreter, then how could you even begin to know what her grandmother was asking?

I'm retired used SWpro for 20 years at work. On social security I can't afford that now. Loaded freecad. On to youtube for all the tutorial's liked yours the most for my 3d printer hobby. Thank you for helping me learn some different ways to get there.
I am new to 3D printing and got my first printer with the mindset I could make anything. Quickly did I realize how hard it was and got overwhelmed with all this technical data, programs to choose from, and where to begin. My biggest concern was a free software that I can own my design. Tried to learn it myself and quit expeditiously. This video literally changed that for me and I designed the card holder along with you. Thank you so much for this! I am currently going back to college with the pursuit of engineering and following these tutorials might give me an edge when we get into CAD.
Holy cow! What an awesome and, most of all, simple tutorial. This guy is a freakin genius! I feel like, in less than 30 minutes, he has turned me into a 3D printer madman! THANKS!
I’ve been looking for a tutorial like this for years, tons of tutorials on UA-cam But they are all way to dumb down our way to advance this is the perfect speed thank you
DRVAX, First off I want to say thanks for you and all your videos, you teach and explain as if we are learning for the first time which is exactly where I am at on all this. I bought my very first 3D Printer 3 days ago, put it together made my first test piece (cool) watched this video on freecad , Downloaded FreeCad and followed your tutorial designed and made the Index card box, downloaded cura and sliced it, put it into my printer and done deal my first print (ALL WITH YOUR HELP). I did all this in less then 24 hrs and I never ever took at class on freeCad, sketching, drawing or anything else. I know there’s so much to learn with all of this but watching your videos make it all seamless. With all your help some trial and error and a little common sense someone like me with ZERO very little knowledge of this hobby can do and make great things. So once again thank you for all your Help.
I have FreeCAD but I could not figure out where to start but I will watch your tutorials so I can learn. I am 60 and I hope I am not too old. Thanks for sharing these. I really like your channel as you explain things so clearly.
I worked with autocad 2D & 3D for a living for 21 years, now I'm retired and have no access to those programs. I've just bought an ender 3 v2 and needed modelling software when I chanced upon your channel. While Freecad is similar in some ways your tutorial helped me a lot to learn the differences. Thank you.
At 79 years old, you make me feel like I'm back in mechanical my high school drawing class again. Thank you for an excellent introduction to using a CAD program, you answered many of the questions I had being a total newbie to the 3D printing scene. I'm really looking forward to making use of the Freecad and designing projects of my own to print on my new Ender-5 Pro. I was also thinking of buying the Prusa machine, your comparison of the two and explanation of their qualities and performances was very helpful, for now I'll stay with my Ender -5 Pro. Thank you, stay safe and well, JB
At 56 years old, I thought maybe getting into this cad 3D thing was maybe not a good idea. sir, you have just made up my mind to go for it. I don't have a 3D printer yet, i thought maybe best to learn the cad part first. You stay safe
Thank you, I sat and stared at Freecad for over half an hour trying to work out how to start a drawing, then I gave up. You’ve explained it perfectly, now I can get on with it.
Started out watching someone else's FreeCAD tutorial, and gave up after 10 minutes. You, OTOH, don't take anything for granted, or cut any corners in your instruction, yet keep it interesting, while still moving along. Thanks for doing this, Doc.
I want to say thank you! Right now i am printing my first self-modeled 3d Print. Thanks to you and your amazing Videos. I feel really proud. But instead, you should! Thanks for sharing and keep being awesome! :)
I am here to eat my own words if I ever said anything terrible about FreeCAD, I just recommended it to someone because I could not think of any better software that did not require a student registration of sorts. Good grief. Thank you for spreading the word about FreeCAD.
I’m 21 years old and brand new to CAD and 3D printing, and you do a better job tenfold compared to the guys my age on UA-cam who create tutorials for this field. Amazing content DrVax - you’re the man! Shalom!
This is great.. some people know a lot about the program but do not know how to explain it to others. But you explain each step slowly and clearly. Thanks a lot
I try. It is funny that sometimes I get comments that I talk too slowly. I just recommend these folks play the videos at 2x speed. That way my videos work for everyone.
@@MakeWithTech “Slowly” is not the correct term. What I mean is that you fully explain each step and give the viewer minty of time to see where your mouse is going. Some people make videos where they fly through each step as a demonstration rather than as a teaching tool
Thanks so much. As an EE struggling to learn 3D CAD, design, and 3D printing, your intros to FreeCAD are excellent. You make learning a complex tool fun.
Just got my first 3D printer and quickly learned of the limitations of Tinkercad but was confused by other tutorials on Freecad, at least until I found yours! Great job, mate.
Dude! Thank you SOOO much for this and all other tutorials. You probably cant event imagine how your teaching looks like from a perspective of a student. No useless words, every moment is covered and showed slowly but synchronized and still fast enough to not to leave the focus, no speeding with the mouse, like many of others do it like "... see how fast I can do it, hah!" etc. etc. You helped me out really to understand fundamentally of FreeCad. Thank you and I'm waiting for more contents.
DrVax, I have tried watching quite a few other tutorials but soon gave up. This one is excellent, your obvious enthusiasm shines through and makes the video both interesting and informative.
Thanks Irv. I've been watching a lot of FreeCAD tutorials recently and you're the first one I've found that explained "thick solid" in a simple straightforward way.
big thumb up for: 1. inspiring people to actually modelling of useful things instead of using 3d printers only for making the dust collectors. 2. for showing the way of modelling, which is maybe more demanding, but at the same time giving much wider possibilities. Nowadays it rather repels as it require to spend some more on learning and practicing ;)
Thank you so much! I'm very green at all of this. I just bought my 1st 3D printer last week and now I have to learn which programs to use for CAD as a beginner. I've decided to start with FreeCad, so this was soo helpful! You are a great instructor! Thank you!!
I agree...I must have bought mine around the same time, and I do have a few weeks, though, of trying to find instructional videos...and after an overload of "unpacking" and reviews- as all I could find, I made it here!! Thank you, Dr.VAX!
I'm just barely getting started with FreeCAD ... a complete CAD newbie. The other tutorials available on UA-cam were extremely sketchy and mostly unhelpful. Yours was perfect for me. Thank you so much! Please make more!! :-)
I need to get my first 3D-printing project sliced in 6 hours and I think your tutorial in 1.5x speed will make this actually happen :) Many thanks for this great tutorial video Dr. Irv.
One of the best how-tos I've ever seen on any topic. Just the right combination of how and why, excellent pace, clear directions. New to 3d printing, new to 3d CAD - but with several pauses, I was able to produce my own drawing and 3d print.
One of the best instructional videos I've seen. I am a newbie and I learned more in 15 minutes than I have been able to figure out on my own in 8 months.
I watched your 3 part introductory tutorials on FreeCAD after watching other UA-cam videos on the same subject that seemed too long, too in depth, you hit the nail on the head and got me started quickly, I'm a teacher myself , well driving instructor at least and appreciated your approach and I'm looking forward to learning more about FreeCAD TOGETHER, love that little bit you add at the end, it puts you so at ease.
I just started using cad for the first time in my life yesterday, thanks to people like you putting out tutorials like this it shortened the learning curve immensely. Thank you for the lessons Doc, subscribed.
So well done! There are many on UA-cam who publish tutorials, but even though well intentioned, some just aren’t good teachers. Irv gets it just right. I look forward to learning a lot more about freecad!
Absolutely Fantastic !!! just did everything in the video, got to the end, and realised my printer wont arrive for another week !!! got a new sub, and will be watching the rest of the series. Truly a great educator. Now to figure how how to un-break my solid creation in free cad LoL
Thank you so much for creating this video. I've just downloaded FreeCad and have run through a couple tutorials but have had issues with finding the correct button and watching someone do something while explaining the rationale is very helpful.
Irv, You have a great understanding of what a new learner needs to hear and see to develop a mental framework which will hold the information you are presenting. You are a blessing to the community. Keep up the good work.
Wow, I just followed along with your nice and smooth presentation in FreeCAD to make the same card holder as you. I watched the video first, thinking it looked pretty easy, but then when trying to do it without your step by step instructions, I found I didn't know what I was doing (I have little experience with 3D cad), so I went back and did it step by step as you did in the video. Really grateful for your help! I've watched several of your videos, and your presentation style is excellent!!
DR. Vax thank you for these videos I am Enjoying my 3d printers due to some of ur guidlines and reviews. Now i own 4 printers and its an everyday thing now. Dr. Vax videos are almost always playing in the background to remind me things you had taught while im working on designs.
Hi Dr Vax i'am from Belgium and i have to admit that this video is one of the best vdeo's explaining the basics of CAD. Please learn us more about this intersesting subject.
there's a certain amount of crash and burn involved in making the same moves you do, Dr, but it has worked, which is unusual and highly gratifying. More seems possible, and thanks for the encouragement. I'm a repeat beginner in cad, consulting a brilliant fusion consultant, Maciej Rogowski, for five years to get things done, but ultimately I need to understand what I'm doing, and I'm sure Freecad will make the shapes I need.
Well done! With the recent “feature subtractions” from the free version of Fusion 360, lots of folks are looking around for alternatives. I’ve never known where or how to start with FreeCAD, and your tutorial today was perfect! Thanks.
Thank you SO much for videos like this! I haven’t even put together my first 3D printer yet (still in it’s box while I clean a space for it to live), but your thoughtful, friendly presentations have soothed many of my anxieties and provide a legible map for venturing into this world.
This is by far the best tutorial I have found. I know this may get lost in the vast amount of comments, but if you happen to see this, thank you!
finally someone who knows how to teach!!!!!! awesome video I'm a new subscriber
Thank you SO much! As a beginner, I've bounced back and forth in so many CAD programs that all I achieved was being confused! I've learned more useful informationin this 30 minute video than I have in weeks trying to learn on my own!!

This is actually first time I watch one of your videos and I LOVED IT. Thank you!!
Thank you Irv you have made my journey into the unknown a little less daunting
I'm not sure I have observed anyone who can explain things as well as you do... Thank you.
This was so helpful. I don't know how, but you could make something rocket science level understandable to a person who never touched rocket science.
For someone who knows nothing about FreeCAD or CAD in general, but wants to learn (me), this is the best beginner tutorial I've seen
Best intro ever for a total beginner like me , saved your video & subbed massive thanks
Very nicely explained , thanks
Very helpful for my first look at freeCAD
. Thank you.
I've used the free version of Fusion 360 a little bit and FreeCAD seems so much easier and quicker. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thank you so much! Iv had a printer for years but never knew how to design my own parts. I now need a simple spacer ring and cannot find anything online. I found your video and it helped me through completely!
Just what I needed. Very easy to understand. Thanks for sharing, congratulations!
I like it when you go straight to the point.
Best FreeCad tutorial. Thank you and Congratulations.
You're a great teacher, Lev. Many thanks!
Dr vax you are a very good teacher....
Thank you for these videos...
Thanks Dr. Vox, you are giving me a new doorway here!
Im a native german speaker, but after a few minutes im so concentrated to what Dr. Vax is saying, I sometimes think he talks to me in german, so perfectly understandable he explains this stuff. Great!
I once dance with a 91 Russian woman on my weddings night. We had a conversation as we danced. I only knew English and the lady only knew Russian.

Thanks a million, Irv. Your vids are still helping people years later!
This is such an amazing and simple thing to show how to get into this program. I love it! Thank you!
