If you use the video tag - and if your video is the best tutorial ever, it deserves it - then you should allow to start it directly in the forum. If you don't want it, you should provide only a link.

Inkscape is the right tool to vectorize a picture and get an SVG from it. ;)

As this is the FreeCAD forum, we don't use Blender. You can directly import an SVG into FreeCAD and use it for further operations.

Thanks a lot, guys!
Do you think, my algorithm should be this?
1. Editing in GIMP (if it is needed).
2. Vectorize in Inkscape.
3. Import in FC and working with it.

IMO you should do as much work as possible in Inkscape (cleaning, scaling, ...) before importing to FC so nothing but extrude is to be done. ;)

I used Inkscape and made an SVG file. It is ok.
I imported it into FC. The result is wrong. Why?

as i did show in the Video
you need AFTER the vectorise to get the 2 Views seperated
thne delete the original RIGHT MOUSE Click
if it showes Filling and Contour its the Vector
if it does not its the image to be deleted
then Click again Right on the Vector
FILLING and Contour
X at Filling
and First low on contour
done export as standard svg
