How can I create assemblies in FreeCAD?
How can I create assemblies in FreeCAD?
To create assemblies in FreeCAD, you can use the Assembly Workbench, specifically the A2Plus workbench or the Assembly4 workbench. They allow you to create and manage assemblies by importing and arranging multiple parts, defining constraints, and establishing relationships between components. First, install the desired workbench through the Addon Manager, and then follow the tools provided to assemble your parts with constraints like coincident, concentric, and distance constraints.
How do I create a parametric model in FreeCAD?
How do I create a parametric model in FreeCAD?
To create a parametric model in FreeCAD, start by creating a new document and use the PartDesign Workbench to create a Sketch. Define the geometry using constraints and dimensions to make it parametric. Use Pad and Pocket tools to add or remove material based on the sketch. Add more sketches and features as needed, each time leveraging constraints and parameters to ensure the model is fully parametric. Finally, adjust parameters through the property editor or by modifying constraints to see the model update accordingly.

Advantages of Online Tutors & Services
Effective
The process of learning 1-on-1 with a live tutor lets you actively participate in the learning. You can immediately repeat a concept in your own words, ask clarifying questions, or demonstrate a concept back to your tutor to ensure understanding.
Efficient
Save time and resources by learning from the comfort of your home. Avoid commuting expenses and focus on learning only the tools you need with personalized lessons tailored to your specific workflow.
Recordable
No need to take notes! We record your lessons so you can replay them at your own pace later. Keep these recordings for future reference and reinforce your learning whenever needed.
Fun
Learning with a dedicated tutor makes the experience enjoyable and interactive. Discuss problems, practice together, and enjoy the human conversational element that brings life to online learning. Reach out anytime you need assistance!
Tutors & Services Philosophy
Don't Learn Alone
Professionals these days are sitting alone and staring at their computers. They spend years searching online for tools that will increase their workplace efficiency—digging through forums and watching lengthy videos for the right CAD or visualization tip.
Sometimes they just have one small question that would take a person two minutes to answer, but customer support lines are a thing of the past. Big companies will direct you to an FAQ that will hardly begin to answer your question.
Bring Back the Human Connection
We strive to bring human connection back to the work environment. Our tutors work directly with you to solve your problems, similar to the way an apprentice works hand-in-hand with a skilled professional.
Screen-share technologies like Zoom have allowed us to work together in real time. We can see each others' screens and cursors, switch presenters to share information easily, and even turn on webcams for a more human interaction. Learn efficiently across workflows like architectural rendering, interiors, mechanical modeling, and construction documentation.
Tutors, Services, or Both
Sometimes our clients want to learn a program from beginning to end; sometimes they completely hand over the services to us; and other times, they want something in between.
Some clients want to be able to use the program on a basic level and let us do the hard stuff. Others want to co-work with us, supervising our work to ensure their artistic vision is realized. Along the way, they learn the tools—whether that’s SketchUp, Blender, Fusion 360, Revit, or AutoCAD.
By the end of the process, some clients are able to wean themselves completely off of our services and are empowered to do the work themselves. If they get stuck or behind on a deadline, they use us as a lifeline. They can call anytime—even if it’s just a 10-minute question—we are here to help.
