You appologise for you English, because it is not your first language, but you explain yourself better than some native English speakers I have dealt with.

Your English sounds fine with this American. Your FreeCAD teaching is right on target. I am new to FreeCAD and the info you give in this tutorial will be very useful for me. THANKS!
Best tutorial. I love your tutorial because you are carefull about parameters, which is essential for cad (not polygon) design. Please make more video like this. Best wishes for you.
TY Flowie 4 all your diligence. The English speaking is excellent..Continue Exactly as you are doing. U R AN Excellent Instructor. The information U disseminate can be instantly understood. Do not hesitate to show all the techniques and complicated designs and calculations you have produced.
Thank you Florian for making this tutorial in English. I didn't know one could reference named constraints like that, which seems very nifty. A similar approach which might be better in some cases is to use a spreadsheet. It allows grouping all such named variables making it easier to get an overview of all parameters. To do so one would add a spreadsheet to the project, and add values in a cell with an assigned alias. The aliases can then be referenced as with the named constraints with e.g. "Spreadsheet.wt". This can allow for more complex relations where for example the value of once cell could be the evaluation of a function.
I've just started using FreeCAD within the last month and your tutorials have been the best structured that I have come across. Please keep up the great work. I've been following the non-English also as the UA-cam auto CC does a pretty good job of auto capturing and displaying with a bit of error in some words. Things like FreeCAD getting transcribed as Freak and other small things. It's a bit slower following but that works out great and gets me to focus better. I truly appreciate the teachings and proper methods of approach instead of the shotgun method most other tutorials seem to present. Your English is superb so no need to worry. I really like the series of examples that you supply giving users the opportunity to learn to do it on their own and then follow up with seeing a professional approach as to how to get it completed. Also, highlighting reinforcing the trouble areas that FreeCAD has is very nice (e.g. Topological Naming issues, etc.). I was not aware of the issue until you mentioned it in this video. That is how new I am to the system. Keep up the marvelous work.
thank you for the video. I created the pipe on an alternative way, two concentric circles. The thickness wall for the cross reference between 1st sketch and the rectangle did it creating a construction line between both circles and taking the measure as reference. Quite nice tips you are giving, I am learning a lot and I have stopped using external geometries or creating sketches on faces following the robustness hierarchy to tight and controll all the model. 1. coordinate systems 2. planes 3. faces 4. edges
Hey thanks for this nice comment! I think my English is improving fast when I get used to these tutorials! :) written English is absolutely no problem, it’s just that I an not used to free talking..
Excellent tutorial my friend. Very clear and accurate. I love the way you circonvene the topology problem. Very smart. I adopt this smart approach from now on.
Thanks for your tutorias. To manage easily all variables, there is something that works for me. Add all variables into a spreadsheet and assign a variable. After, when drawing, you select spreadsheet and the list of variable will pop up. This way you can refer to any variable from different sketches. Hope this helps.
Really informative and clearly presented. Give a good insight into the power of using expressions in a parametric design, which I am sure could save a lot of time in a number of different scenarios. Thank you very much!
Thanks for all your videos. And your English is excellent, no reason to apologise for it....im Gegensatz zu meinem Deutsch, das wirklich eine Entschuldigung verdient.
Awesome tutorial dude. Your English (including your variable names) are the absolute bees-knees. One development to this would be to link the parameters into a spreadsheet for even easier control. More tuts in English please : )
I would love to see a tutorial with a hollow tube and hollow dome at one end . ) your English is better then most native English speaking people I know here in Canada ! cheers.
Very good teaching method, I will inspire myself with your method to create my next parts. don't worry with your English, it's perfect for me (I am French) and mainly watch US videos (plenty of those ;) )
As a English speaking American I think your English is perfect, I am curious about that dd for drilling distance what would you have said in German for that same thing and please explain in english so I understand or German as I can use Google Translate for the answer. Thanks for all you do.
Wow. Just started watching your vids and straight away I realise that u r teaching things the hard way. Why wouldnt you draw 2 circles on the XY centre point, give them radius and simply pad for initial pipe
Dear viewer, please don't ask me about a 4 year old video why I did something in a specific way.. :) It's just super old and I have no clue why I did what I did back then.
My friend, as a software developer, I've learned to make your variable names things that make sense to you. Instead of "dd" for "drilling diameter" just use "drilling_diameter" or "drill_dia". Use lots of letters; they're free, so why not use as many as you need to make sense!
I tried doing this before watching the video and I think it should've worked. Instead of extruding the cylinder by rotating a rectangle sketch, I extruded a pair of concentric circles. Everything was just fine until I tried making the grove, at which point everything just kind of broke. The geometry was all messed up and no matter which rotation axis I used, reversed or not, symmetry or not, it just turned into garbage with random polygons sticking out and the circle holes becoming triangular. When I did this again after watching your video with the revolving rectangle to create the tube, the thing worked fine. What is the issue? How do I avoid that?
Thanks for the tutorial! It'll be super nice if the "Formula editor" has a fuzzy search functionality, then we don't need to remember the exact variable names~
I am using the latest version of freecad and it took me an hour and I still could not get it to aknowlage the " ir nor the wt" it just will not. :( so I thout maybe I did something wrong from start, so I start everything from start and same problem so I just give it up for now. But I love your work and I am Grateful for the video's that you make...:)
When I try to make the grove from sketch002 I get "Linked shape object is empty". What am I missing? To add to the fun, if I reverse the order and do the slot first and then add the hole and array it works fine. I got a working model, but this is still frustrating.
No specific reason, Spreadsheet Workbench was just not part of the things I wanted to explain here. If you have to deal with a lot of parameters, spreadsheet is of course the better option. It's the common problem: You cannot show everything i a 10 minutes tutorial without further explanation, and suddenly you find yourself recording some 50 minute tutorial.. :)
ex fusion user here. how would you go about modelling a pipe with a radial slot that is not just straight around/ up/ a constant pitch helix (like the locking mechanism on a pen or the cam groove for rotating the bolt on a rifle)? is there something like a wrap sketch around cylinder tool?
I have followed your tutorial (which think is very good) exactly, but i get a different result. At 10.15 i can see the circle in your model, but i can not see it in mine. Can this be because you are on version 0.19 and i am on 0.18.4?

@@FreeCADAcademy You're most welcome. I learned a lot. In this video and others by different authors you talk about the dangers of the FreeCAD naming hierarchy - or something like that.

I've used link to edge *a lot* and have often found myself frustrated with FreeCAD somehow 'getting it wrong' further through a models development - especially if I have to use undo. I'm wondering if this is why you and other contributors advise against it. Thank you!
Hi great tutorial. I am using v0.19 the same as what you are using, yet I am not able to enter the formula like you do. Constraints are not recognised. I have found the only way around this is to enter the sizes into a spreadsheet as I progress, and then use those.
@@FreeCADAcademy A month on... Sorted! I finally worked out why I was unable to use the formula. I discovered that when naming constraints, you can't use a space in the naming of a constraint. i.e "Slot Length" must be "SlotLength"
I'm experiencing a problem at this step also. My model vanishes and then I get the error "linked shape object is empty" if I follow through with the expression. Maybe a bug in this version? (I'm also on 24291) Edit: Found a post describing why this was not working (in my case at least) and it has to do with "construction geometry" we used in a previous step. It is perhaps a persistent change vs. the assumed momentary switch.

Great tutorial! But you're falling into the trap that computer programmers used to make, or trying to be too compact with variable names. Now there are some standard engineering terms, such as ID & OD, for the inner diameter and outer diameter of pipes,. Of course, these are probably different in English & German, so you might not know them. But "slot_x" might be a better choice than "dd"

Way too complicated. Why not draw a tube then do a slot? There's shortcuts in Freecad to do that but the slot appears in wrong place

Now there are some standard engineering terms, such as ID & OD, for the inner diameter and outer diameter of pipes,. Of course, these are probably different in English & German, so you might not know them. But "slot_x" might be a better choice than "dd"
