I am sorry for not adding the Freecad Info. I had just added it in my previous post. I figured everyone would get sick of seeing it. I will add it to each post from now on. I will go back to that file and retry it. Thank you Charles OS: Windows 10 Word size of OS: 64-bit Word size of FreeCAD: 64-bit...

I have hesitated getting away from the "stable" version for now. But I am finding that the most up to date information covers the developmental version. Many of the tutorials fo back several revisions. I opted for the nightly builds on UGS Platform and there are some issues. I am working t...

Yes, actually I am very interested. I have just spent 4 days trying to get an svg image loaded, placed where I want it, and gettting freecad to produce G code I can engrave with.Once I got past the issues with importing the file I thought the rest would be fairly straight forward, take the merged sk...

I am getting some strange output in my post processor files and I am having trouble figuring out where its coming from. It is inserting a G0 z44.000, which bangs my z axis against the end of its lead screw. Yes I know I should have limit switches. They are on their way, but china is not just down th...

Well I have been at this awhile now and feel like I have a decent handle on the rudiments of drawing and 3D part design. I have my engraver up and running so I have moved on to the path workbench. After several tries I got it to engrave some text with a border around it. It seemed rather difficult t...

I have been working my way through the tutorials, getting aquainted with as many of the features of FreeCad. I have spent all day on the Lego Block Tutorial, only to be confounded by: "Pad: Result has multiple solids. This is not supported at this time." error. I searched through the forum...

Well things are getting better now. I went back and opened my saved document for the tutorial. By the way I am working through the Draft Tutorial v0.16. I deleted my rectangle which was in the wrong place. I entered the numbers to match the tutorial, being careful to clear the input boxes of any tex...

Thank you both for the reply. It made sense to me that I should go through the tutorials, before getting started on any projects. I started with the Draft tutorials, and when I have those consepts firmly implanted in my brain will move on to the Technical drawing subjects. I ran into a little snag w...

I just switched from Liebrecad to Freecad. Hoping the adjustment time won't be to long. I use my cad program for many different things and sincerely hope I don't out grow Free cad. I am currently working on a project to build a cigar box guitar. I am going to be using my cnc router to make some spec...
