Re: New Stick Frame Workbench

That's interesting and a good start. You might look at using Part containers, this will allow you to do more organizing and clean up the tree. This will be challenging once the builders have a say, I don't think I have ever meet two builders that agree on everything. :) I definitely want to move it...

Re: New Stick Frame Workbench

Inspired by your efforts, I decided to clone your repo. Just had a quick look into your code with my morning cuppa. You use XPM icons. See this thread https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?t=17057 . You mix decimal English units with fractional ones, for example in studs.py when initializing p...
