We discuss a lot about FreeCAD, we answer questions from people doing projects and they sometimes post pictures, even files, but then we have to fish through the forum to find them again.
So I thought, why not create a topic to share your FreeCAD projects, big and small? And maybe also link to existing topics. The idea is to showcase what FreeCAD can do!
Here are a few rules, not to be taken seriously:
- Post what you have created in FreeCAD. Don't be shy, nothing is too simple to show. Well, maybe don't post if all you did was create a box.
- Give a small description of its use, if there's none, hey no problem, not everything has to be useful in life.
- Add some insight on how you modeled it, and why this way rather than that way.
- Mention your FreeCAD version, and your operating system (Win, MacOSX, Linux distro).
- Post a screen capture. The forum Upload attachment only accepts the JPG extension, size is limited to 256KiB, don't make it too big. Crop it first with MS Paint, GIMP or any other raster image program.
- Even better, post the file if you're OK with sharing it. Others will be able to see how you made it, and maybe learn something. The Upload attachment utility takes .zip files, but the FreeCAD file format is already a ZIP file. Just append .zip to the filename, and those who will download it will just need to remove it to open the file. There is a 256KiB file limit. If your file exceeds that, upload it on a free sharing/hosting service, there are many out there.
That's it! Let's start modeling!
