Parametric Snailshell
Hello, I revisited an old topic to generate a parametric Snail Shell on basis of the paper "# A Mathematical Model for Mollusc Shells Based on Parametric # Surfaces and the Construction of Theoretical Morphospaces (Gabriela Contreras-Figueroa 1,2 and José L. Aragó)" The Program generates a...

Re: Santed: Workflow for two Parts
Many thanks papyblaze for your cool solution!
My Learnings:
My Learnings:
- Draw Sketches in the space not attached to faces (better for reuse)
- Use Symmetry (here it would be interesting to make use of the XY-plane symmetry)

Re: Santed: Workflow for two Parts
Many thanks for your hints. I will have a look into:
Have a look at this page, especially the paragraph about creating stable models

Wanted: Workflow for two Parts
Hello FreeCAD-experts, I want to create a mount that connects a tube to a rectangular rod with FreeCAD (0.18) as shown in the Picture. Beamholder.PNG My workflow is: Lower Body: (straightforward) Create a solid (cube) and make a bar. Convert it to a Body With Sketches create material takeaways under...

Re: How to get faces in two sides of a serpentine wall?
I would try the following: Let us assume: - all the line segment vectors of the center line (red dotted) are connected in the same direction (end point of a segment vector is start point of the next segment) - the unit normal vector of the center face of a wall segment be n (line segment vector dot ...

Re: Unlimited references to external geometry
DeepSOIC and triplus: many thanks for your investigation. I was not aware that I generated an redundant/overconstrained situation. I was on the wrong track with the orphaned edge assumption. So it is good that a fix could be done by simply removing some constraints. I am looking forward to see the d...

Re: Unlimited references to external geometry
One problem in FreeCAD is that sometimes the edge and vertex objects change if one adjusts the sketch geometry. Instead of changing only the size of the objects new ones are created leaving "orphaned" edges and vertices and the linkage get lost. In the example file: Changing the length of ...
