If you're curious about creating an assembly using the new native assembly workbench, which can generate an exploded view and an automatic parts list, take a look at this new video at ua-cam.com/video/k51YFdXIIek/v-deo.html.
I am very happy to find a tutorial that is so accurate in relation to my current expectations with the new version of Freecad. Congratulations on your initiative and I sincerely hope that you continue to be motivated to publish such useful and high-level content. In my humble opinion, this parameterization paradigm provides fantastic productivity. I really consider it a very timely and generous initiative. And on behalf of the entire community that adopts free and high-quality software, I thank you immensely for the initiative. We hope that all your effort is highly rewarded. A big hug.
@nelsonchaves8395 Thank you for your kind words, they made my day! Freecad is an incredible and powerful software, I truly hope that it will follow in the footsteps of Blender and become a major player in the CAD industry.
I hopefully will be as well. Btw do you have any experience with blender on very low end specs? Or can predict how it'll perform. I'm a bit broke, and learning freecad, planning on simulating some... kinda sophisticated stuff, engine, pressure/vaccuum and whatnot. Would it be feasible on old i3 i.e 2nd gen. And integrated graphics. With 6gb ram (I've heard it's helpful to have more). I've heard older versions may work, but I've no idea of its practicality on my specs. I don't plan on simulating eye candy fluids and heavy stuff at high resolution, but I'll need diaphragm and balloon and pressure differentiation and some other things to simulate.
@yasirrakhurrafat1142 For both Blender and Freecad, I think your specs will be too poor for your expectations . I have run Blender and Freecad on an I7 4710 and gtx 850m, Freecad was OK but suffers when there are many objects in the assembly and for Blender, the viewport was ok but render times was extremely long.
@@deltahedra3D brother. You have any video, or can refer to me to a video about what viewport is? I've seen that it just seems like a half-ashe renderer. But I like that its not performance intensive. If i can just simulate everything, semi complicated fluids, gas, and pressure-vacuum, and soft bodies like diaphragms or something without beautiful rendering, I would be satisfied. I just need to simulate and figure out some physics interactions and whatnot. Would it be possible in viewport? I'm playing around with freecad, it doesn't seem very intensive, maybe it'll get more demanding if objects, sketches and parts increase and complexity, but no lag so far. Also, would older versions of blender perform better on my ancient hardware? I actually have an i7 870 and hd 3*** something something from amd/ati. These are so old, I didn't mention because I don't think most people will even recognise these.
@@yasirrakhurrafat1142you can do anything only thing that will be hindering you is that it takes more time on a low end machine. RAM might be a hard limit for very complex projects. So start your journey of learning with what you have, not everyone can afford a pro setup before becoming a pro.
@@Krmpfpks nahh bro ); I was looking to do some semi complicated stuff. Is it possible to see outcomes without rendering the stuff? Like you do fluid simulations, but don't want a video result. Like how we do in video editing, scrubbing through the timeline.. watching the video with effects applied without rendering? I just wanna do some engineering stuff 😭😭
really very awesome software ant tutorial! Please make more wood furniture and cabinet tutorials. I`ll be glad to make a big donate for this. Thank you
Thank you for the video very helpful. Freecad 1.0 is really a great improvement. I would be very interrested in getting a video/tutorial on how you realized the intro animation with Blender.
Clear and concise. Earned my sub. This is a bottom up design. It uses a lot of formulas, too many for my liking :). I would like to see a top down design in Freecad where shape binder is used ( or some other method) to transfer features from part to part. This should reduce the amount of formulas used. In other words the parts are feature driven, rather than formula driven. Less chances of user errors.
@bytekilla666 I usually use a spreadsheet, especially for more complex design where formula is needed, but I will try to add the varset in my workflow. Thanks.
I haven't yet watched this tutorial, it's on my watchlist, so sorry if you have answered the question in the video, but I'd like to know can I make some kind of furniture design in FreeCAD and then export that file to some format which can be used by companies that are doing woodworking with machinery? Thanks!
Thanks, I had some solver errors with the assembly workbench as soon as I added the dowels, especially when I updated the spreadsheet with new values. If you want some details about the assembly built-in freecad, I have made this video ua-cam.com/video/k51YFdXIIek/v-deo.html, where I made the assembly, the exploded view and a part list complied in a drawing.
@leroycasterline1122 You're not required to use the parts, I do it out of habit just in case there are several solids to group together that I want to connect.
@@deltahedra3D Thanks, i work with cabinets here in my country, and i looking for a open source to make furniture projects, and preference to be procedural, like dynamics components from sketchup. I trying to learn blender, and i saw your video. I will look for geometry nodes. Thanks man.
Most of the time I made my assembly in a new file, especially when using A2plus workbench, because you need to convert a part to A2plus so as to make it fix and I find that it make the tree structure messy with a different icon for the converted part.
Thank you for this great tutorial. Regarding assembly, I wonder if it would have been better to use the dowels instead of the edges to make the coincidences. That would help ensuring we did not make any mistake regarding the position of the dowels. And it corresponds to the way the cabinet is assembled.
You are right, it's better to use the dowels, but I chose the edges to avoid calculation error of the solver when adjusting the values of the spreadsheet. I have terrible results using the dowels with the Assembly workbench, so I didn't want to take risk, but your solution could work.
Great tutorial but I wish it would be in text form. It's easy to make videos but very hard to learn from videos. Have to constantly pause and rewind, having a pdf would be much much better!
So what? The video creator is still taking the time to transfer their knowledge without any payment. AI is wonderful for talented empathetic people with limited resources.

This is amazing. Kudos to the FreeCad team. I donated to the team for their wonderful work.
Thank you so much man! And thanks to the FreeCAD team! Donated today. Keep going! You will change whole economies.

Oh my god! Finally a really great and useful tutorial for FreeCAD! I love it!
Please do more of those.
Great tutorial
Looking forward for your next videos on Freecad.
Beautiful video. Sure you are as good blender user as you are in Freecad, it good be nice a follow up video of the animation at the beginning!
I hopefully will be as well.

@imoldovan I'm not familiar about the workflow you talk about but I will find out. Thank you for your comment and your constructive remark :).
In Freecad 1.0 it makes more sense to use the varset (icon {}) instead of spreadsheets. A more modern and struct way to do this.
@bytekilla666 I usually use a spreadsheet, especially for more complex design where formula is needed, but I will try to add the varset in my workflow. Thanks.
Thanks, this was great.
Any plans to do tutorial on that intro animation in Blender? That would be awesome!
Thanks again!
Hi, maybe in the future ! Thanks
How would you do multiple cabinets with different dimensions in one drawing. i.e. a whole set of kitchen cabinets
Is there any tutorial how to create the animation?
I haven't yet watched this tutorial, it's on my watchlist, so sorry if you have answered the question in the video, but I'd like to know can I make some kind of furniture design in FreeCAD and then export that file to some format which can be used by companies that are doing woodworking with machinery? Thanks!
Great video, but might I ask why you chose to use A2Plus instead of the built-in assembly workbench?
Thanks, I had some solver errors with the assembly workbench as soon as I added the dowels, especially when I updated the spreadsheet with new values. If you want some details about the assembly built-in freecad, I have made this video ua-cam.com/video/k51YFdXIIek/v-deo.html, where I made the assembly, the exploded view and a part list complied in a drawing.
@@deltahedra3D Checking it out as we speak, thank you!
Why do you create a part to hold the body?
@leroycasterline1122 You're not required to use the parts, I do it out of habit just in case there are several solids to group together that I want to connect.
Hey man, great vídeo, dumb question here, is that possible to do in blender instead freecad ?
@MiniCasaBrasileira Yes, you can, but to achieve parametric behavior, you'll need to use the Geometry node, which can be more complex.
@@deltahedra3D Thanks, i work with cabinets here in my country, and i looking for a open source to make furniture projects, and preference to be procedural, like dynamics components from sketchup.
I trying to learn blender, and i saw your video. I will look for geometry nodes. Thanks man.
@@MiniCasaBrasileira With the geometry node you can have this kind of result : ua-cam.com/video/Z37xKOo1o3M/v-deo.html
How can you send the program to a cnc router
I'm interested why did you create new file for assembly instead of using the same file and just add an assembly.
Most of the time I made my assembly in a new file, especially when using A2plus workbench, because you need to convert a part to A2plus so as to make it fix and I find that it make the tree structure messy with a different icon for the converted part.
There's an error in your timestamps, you need to remove ":" from the last one.
"Assembly A2plus : 27:36 - 34:56"
to
"Assembly A2plus 27:36 - 34:56"
Thank you for this great tutorial.
Regarding assembly, I wonder if it would have been better to use the dowels instead of the edges to make the coincidences. That would help ensuring we did not make any mistake regarding the position of the dowels. And it corresponds to the way the cabinet is assembled.
You are right, it's better to use the dowels, but I chose the edges to avoid calculation error of the solver when adjusting the values of the spreadsheet. I have terrible results using the dowels with the Assembly workbench, so I didn't want to take risk, but your solution could work.
17:45 ???? Object selection panel....!!! from what command???
Control-C open this dialog box.
Great tutorial but I wish it would be in text form. It's easy to make videos but very hard to learn from videos. Have to constantly pause and rewind, having a pdf would be much much better!
too bad it's not covering the now native assembly tool of freecad. But anyway it's a great lesson for parametric design.
You can check this video ua-cam.com/video/k51YFdXIIek/v-deo.html I use the now native assembly tool to make the assembly.
AI is terrible to listen to
I couldn't agree with you more completely!
Yeah, no matter what, AI just screams "low effort". These comments seem pretty heavily bottled too
So what? The video creator is still taking the time to transfer their knowledge without any payment. AI is wonderful for talented empathetic people with limited resources.
why do i hate these damn robota AI voice so damn much.. and that background music
