How do you think it would be constructed? A meatball between two regular buns? A meatball wrapped in buns? Or, perhaps, a bun core, a meatball mantle, and a bun crust?
Free sure beats $20k annually, for sure. I can't imagine sketching without color changing lines. Im confused why the overlapping circles would form a void, rather than two complete cylinders that intersect.
Yeah, constructor/construction lines rock. That's something relatively new in NX, too. I think with release 1921 or something. Hugely beneficial.
The lack of intersecting geometry is a big hindrance to the way I model things. Pads and pockets are something I haven't dealt with since probably NX 7.5, back around 2012. I'm not sure if I can change at this point.
For 2D things, I really like to make primary sketch for all my features. Maybe a second sketch for holes and slots. And my 3D models mostly start with customer data, and I extract surfaces from there. I define parting lines with shadow curves, and split my slides out with sheets normal to the target surface. I then extrude surfaces out along a vector to outside the envelope of the tool, trim them, and use a bounded plane to close it up. Sew into a solid body, and it's a slide. No sketches at all sometimes. But tons of intersecting geometries until the end. Then, adding vacuum, water, air, mounting holes. Seal grooves. Those usually take sketches.
I'm obviously not trying to do my job in FreeCAD, my company uses NX. But I dont think I can easily change my workflow just to do my personal stuff with it, since it is so radically different.
I like your models. It's nice you have a cohesive design for all your handheld display stands, so they'll all look good together.
I can't stand comedy movies like Spy, or Identity Theft. That's what made me not like her. Exposure to her roles outside of that typecast changed my opinion. Like Only Murders. I also thought she made a very good Ursula.
Ah, ok. I've been using NX since it was still Unigraphics, so I am admittedly biased. I haven't tried any of the newer things like Fusion or Sketchup. Might I ask what industry you use FreeCAD for at a professional level? Just curiosity. I'm automotive interiors tooling, so I'm pretty dependent on strong surfacing tools. Lots of A-surface stuff.
Also, how would you model this up in FreeCAD? This took me about 15 minutes in NX, with one sketch and some offset curves. I was making a 3D printed tag for my daughter.
I tried for over two hours in FreeCAD, but only got this far. I could not extrude individual bodies from one sketch, I had to make separate sketches for each shape. Offset curves didn't appear to be a thing, and I couldn't find any form of synchronous modeling tools. So, making those raised outlines was a whole other challenge. I ended up having to extrude a sheet taller than the main body, then thicken it. I couldn't figure out how to select face edges for use in other commands, either. I ended up giving up.
What were you using BEFORE FreeCAD if it has MORE sketch constraints?? Man, I found it so limiting compared to NX. Especially the sketching. And surfacing appeared to be basically nonexistent. Maybe I'm too spoiled with NX, but I dont think I could function for even a day on FreeCAD. It's worse than SolidWorks (and I hate SolidWorks). I really, really wanted to like it. I even gave it a second chance when 1.0 dropped.
Location: MI, USA. My city is insanely white. The second highest demographic being Black, at around 4%. I have never seen or heard any celebrating around here. But you can expect a 2hr wait at any Mexican restaurant.
YaYa's Flam Broiled Chicken. It's not good. There's never anybody in the parking lot. But you're telling me they could move to a bigger location? One that's a converted bank?? Banks have vaults. For all the laundered money.
Wow, that's so terrible to hear. I was reading his Wikipedia, and he just has the absolute worst take on everything. He's the opposite of everything i would have assumed of him. The fact that he lost $200K to a pyramid scheme and he was in Money Plane seem like just desserts.
Hey baby, the vikings used bones of dead animals in their weapons to make them stronger. Come on over and I'll bone you like a dead animal and you can see how strong my dick is.
