I don't pretend to be an expert on FreeCAD or any other 3D software. I'm just an enthusiastic amateur and I'm always learning. I share what I learn to help others benefit from these amazing packages. But don't let that stop you researching the topic elsewhere.
Time prevents me from fully exploring the depths of every topic and lets not beat about the bush here, ignorance could play a part as well, so reinforce your education elsewhere. Ultimately it will be to your benefit.

no matter how intimidating something is, one's much less worried about it when some calm guy (or should I say "lad") is explaining it to you with a nice British accent
-
19:03 "I'm now looking at the rear from the proper angle, something that always gives me pleasure" I can definitely agree with that, my man
-
AT LAAST !!!! a FreeCad tutorial that I can actually understand. The presentation, both the narrative and the illustrations, were superb. Thank you.
-
I just lost my way! I stared with this tutorial . . . and then went on to others . . . wish I had stayed with this person/tutorial. You do a fine job of teaching with a wry sense of humor, too! THX.
-
I think u're the best cad teacher out there. Thank you.
-
you nailed the "happy voice" that makes any beginner tutorial fun and interesting while avoiding making the learner free overwhelmed or feeling talked down to... great job!
-
How this video doesn't have millions of views is absolutely baffling! By far the best video to follow along to for freecad. And it was perfect for me wanting to make a phone stand a certain way. Thank you for your tutorials. And the jokes make the video so much easier to go along with, in my opinion π―

Somehow everybody dims himself a great teacher and improvises when making a learning video, but this author actually prepared a lesson, a script and thougtfully executed with no monotonous voice or pauses, wrong steps and mumbling and jumbling. I liked this video more then everything before.

At the time of watching, this video is two years old and it's still the best quick start guide for FreeCAD I could find! Congrats mate, this was the perfect mixture of "People who start from scratch need to know THESE things", "This GUI escaped a timecapsule from the 90s, I need to tell my viewers what's actually important" and "Lets make this informative, relaxing and funny at the same time" Thanks to this, I was able to model a spool holder in half an hour without any prior CAD experience. You get my full recommendation!

IF YOU DON'T KNOW A THING ABOUT FREECAD, THIS IS THE PERFECT TUTORIAL!!! THANKS MAN!!!
-
This was a wonderful tutorial. I checked your videos and saw you never made this into a series. That's a shame, you have such a talent for having the right amount of learning and abstracting what you were trying to teach in order to get fundamentals down. Here's hoping you might pick this back up.

This was great! A lot of people complain online about FreeCad being dumb, hard to understand or not that great. But its actually amazing that it's a free software with so many CAD functions. Once you start to become familiar with the tools, and more importantly how to sketch, you will realize how useful it is. And again its FREE! Thank you for this. I see myself watching this multiple times the next time I want to sketch something a little more complex than a single plane object π

Till i saw this video i was going back to hand fabrication. Thank you looking for more tutorials now.
-
Love your videos. I am a total hands-on learner. You can sit there and explain everything, but until I see it, it won't sink in. So thank you for what you do. β€β

@ 19:04 great line. "..and I'm now looking at the rear from the proper angle. Something that always brings me pleasure." Just be careful. Looking at the rear too long could get you reported to HR. π Freecad is the first cad program I've ever tried to use. I never imagined that it was so complicated to render what seems such a basic design. Following along step by step will help familiarize me with the different functions where I can finally design what I'm wanting to
-
Holy crap. I've never had such a relaxing training. Please, before I go through all your videos, that you have more!
-
This was my first Free Cad tutorial. What a great experience! This was really easy to follow. Thank you so much!
-
Only half through the video & already wanting to say thank you. This is easy to follow.
-
I've been looking for a video like this for weeks. What a joy and relief to find it. All the other ones, talking, clicking away, no possibility of seeing what they were clicking on or where it was to be found. This one is so clear. Simply wonderful. Thanks so much for putting it out there.

Well, I know I am a year late, but thank you very much for this great tutorial. I learnt more from this short video than I have in the last 3 days of playing with this programme. Excellent you have a new subscriber.
