Re: How do I get started making parts?
Just go to the part in the tree and change it, everything should adjust after. Post your file, its awfully hard to see what you've done to offer any advice. Sorry. I'm so used to working with huge files that posting documents to a forum like this feels wrong. I want to add another piece to Tool Bas...

Re: How do I get started making parts?
So, if I now want to revised the fused part, how do I un-fuze it? I had to use "union" to "fuse" so I'm really not sure what name to be looking for. Thanks.ChrisNelson wrote: ↑Fri Apr 16, 2021 1:04 am Somehow I bumbled around until I found how to fuse then I was able to clone. Thanks, all!

Re: How do I get started making parts?
You should probably fuse the parts into a single solid first. I kind of assumed that. (In Dia, I'm used to grouping a few primitives to make something I can manipulate as a whole.) But I can't find the tool or technique to do that in FreeCAD. EDIT:- Here is an example of a 4 panel door, it is not c...

Re: How do I get started making parts?
Thanks. I'm not sure why -- or how -- I'd use Part Design. I'm surely new to FreeCAD but Part seems the natural way to go here.

Re: How do I get started making parts?
Clone is disabled if there is a task in progress. As an indicator you see a pencil near the "Task" text in the tab near "Model". No, I don't see a pencil. If I click the Task tab, there is a section that says "Start part" with an item below it that says "Create bo...

Re: How do I get started making parts?
Agreed, you should update to the latest version. If for no other reason than 0.18 is thousands (no exaggeration) of fixes and improvements behind. Which is fine except when I search for a way to install 0.19, the last notes say that the installer isn't ready yet. I would not use copy, I would use c...
