Re: 4 cylinder steam engine

Hi Guys.
My apologies for not getting back to you sooner.
Sorry the assembled file is to large to include here at 2.25Mb and contains 20+ files of the parts.
I will be happy to post more images or info if it will help.

Re: Stern driven paddle steamer engine

Hi Kunda1.
I have no objection to you using my images, PLEASE do not credit me with the design as the plans for all my models are from Julius DeWaal, this gentleman did all the hard work drawing them up and published them on http://www.modelesavapeur.com, I just worked them in FreeCAD.

Re: Paddle steamer 2

Yes Kisolre, that was a typo on my part as you say it should read A2plus, Each part is a separate item and they are assembled on another sheet, sometimes I might make several assemblies then assemble the assemblies, I avoid that where possible as the colours from the assemblies lose their gloss/shee...

Re: Spring renders incorrectly

I too had this problem even with straight springs, it seems that version 19 does not react the same as previous versions, I have found that after defining the helix and shape to be swept it works OK using the adaptive helix tab in PD WB.

Re: Limitation of FC V20

Thank you all for your inputs. I tried access the macros via Wiki but kept getting a message saying Wiki was having problems. I will wait a while longer before updating again. I cannot begin to imagine the amount of work that goes into creating and updating FreeCAD and its successive versions. I hav...

Limitation of FC V20

Hi guys. Can anyone give me an idea of the limitations of FreeCAD V20? I know both V19 and V20 are still in development stage but V19 has several issues I am finding ( or not ).
