As Tarek mentioned previously, I developed all of the otoscope parts in TinkerCad. TinkerCad allows you to export as an stl and obj file type, nothing else unfortunately. However, I am able to share a design with others. I can make a clone project with all my parts in it, then share it with some of your TinkerCad accounts? That way, you can see my 'thought process' in making these parts, along with various dimensions you may need.
Hi Frankie. Just notice that what is actually interesting is to know where are the master/driving dimensions of your parts regarding the final product assembly & usage.
Advantage of people here is that we basically know the "flaws" of FreeCAD, and the good ways to have a highly parametric & robust model.
So maybe some hand sketches or screenshots with master dimensions & important annotations could be helpful as well. According your available time.
@FCcommunity : not to hijack, but I think that there are plenty of this projects that are willing to be open source but get some difficulties achieving this with 3D modeling (software & hardware are generally well handled). What do you think about something like having a dedicated thread (or subforum) where open projects can "register" to get the help of the community to have their model done? I think that if some money earning is involved, we can agree that it is fully given to FreeCAD.
