Re: Parametric reuse in FreeCAD?
One sketch...binders from that sketch and features from the binders. Don't get me wrong but you don't seem to understand. I'll try to explain it using the example you provided in the attachments. Lets give that hexagon in the 'Sketch' a radius of 8mm and name 'x'. radius.png I want this 'x' to be d...

Re: Parametric reuse in FreeCAD?
Or you can rewrite the OpenSCAD code in python and create yor own macro, with function, to generate several object with different parameters. I'm planning to do something similar. Just skip the OpenSCAD part and go directly for https://github.com/elalish/manifold and combine it with https://www.sym...

Re: Parametric reuse in FreeCAD?
Make as many Subshapebinder of the sketch and place the binders where you desire. Where can I put different parameters values for each bind? Binders can be used for Pad or Pocket operations. AFAIU binder binds result of specific operations on a specific base object and absolutely cannot reapply tho...

Parametric reuse in FreeCAD?
Hello. How can reuse a same sketch multiple times placing it at different datum planes and each time with different parameters? I can't find this anywhere. Searched this forum, youtube, etc.. to no avail. For those knowing OpenSCAD I'm looking for equivalent to something like this. module my2dThing(...

Re: Assembly 4 workbench
Hello. I'm looking for an example how to do an assembly in a middle of a part creation. Is such thing even possible with Asm4? I'll try giving a simple explanation with an example: I have a model of a box and various electromechanical components which goes inside. Components must have specific place...

Re: Loft: Links go out of the allowed scopes
Here is Shalmeneser's file but with Offset2D and SubShapeBinders. Offset2D needs to be under the body so they will keep there relatiive position under it. Thanks. I wish I knew how the coordinates systems work and relate to each other and what actually the SubShapeBinder do and how it differs from ...

Re: Loft: Links go out of the allowed scopes
Here is my model: Please dont post the resulting STL but the FreeCAD source for the helpers. No one will like to recreate your model from scratch and any actual issue with the model will be lost when exporting. That was an accident. I meant to attach the .FCStd. I fixed it in the original post. I a...

Re: Loft: Links go out of the allowed scopes
Thanks for the explanation. What is the proper way to do offset + loft if I might ask? If I didn't want to use Offset2D I would have of course used just PartDesign::Loft and not Part::Loft but I needed to go to Part WB at least for the Offset2D. Here is my model: adapter.stl. Edit: Accidentally atta...

Loft: Links go out of the allowed scopes
Hello, I'd like to ask how to do Part::Loft using sketches from inside a PD Body without getting the `Links go out of scope` messages. Interesting is that I do not have that problem with Offset2D! Here is my dependency graph: deps.png OS: NixOS 21.11 (Porcupine) (river) Word size of OS: 64-bit Word ...

Re: How to cope with inability to do OO modeling in FreeCAD?
All this time I've been doing it wrong, not knowing " the primary and most basic way how you do things ". 8-) Can't you read @drmacro? I've written that it is such way in OpenSCAD and CadQuery !! I haven't written anything about whether it is bad or good that FreeCAD works in a different ...
