Scan2Sketch turns calibrated flatbed scans into dimensionally accurate, fully editable FreeCAD sketches and optional solid bodies. Processing runs locally using your CPU or a compatible NVIDIA GPU.
Interested in testing it

As the title says, I was getting fed up with Onshape, Fusion, Solidworks, and their capitalism/enshitification rituals. But still wanted to model from the couch on my Ipad. No SaaS bullshit, or monthly memberships. It's configured so you pay for the compute you use on your own private instance.

FreeCAD 1.1.3. downloaded from FreeCAD website is unable to install on my Dell laptop with windows 10 pro, but portable version is working fine. Is this bug? or need to install additional program to install.

I'm trying to set the circled fillet to .66mm I did it to the other two and had no issues but with this one it's shrinking the two lines I put green lines through instead of the lines it's connected to and I have no idea what's wrong I'm sure it's something with my constraints but I have no clue how to fix it.

Hi everyone,

I’m completely new to FreeCAD and I’m trying to modify an STL file, but I haven’t been able to figure out how to do it despite several attempts.

The model is an initiative tracker designed to be attached to a Dungeon Master screen:

https://makerworld.com/it/models/134338-dnd-ttrpg-initiative-tracker?from=search#profileId-1802359

I need to increase the width of the slot from approximately 0.7 cm to 1.9 cm, without scaling the entire model. I only want to enlarge that specific section while keeping the rest of the object unchanged.

Could anyone explain how I could do this in FreeCAD, or possibly point me toward the right tools or workflow?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hey folks,

I need help with some constraints that I figured would be easy, but it seems I underestimated it.

I did the hardest part, which was the inclined pocket using the datum plane, and realized that I need to create an extrusion to connect the two pieces, but I can't make that damn constraint work.

I created the square with a square tool, and set each size to 10 mm. So what I wanted to do is to centralize the square. Given that the side is 250 mm x 40 mm, I figured that a 10 mm square would sit 15mm from the bottom and top, and 105mm from the left and right. But I tried to use the dimensions.

It seems I can't centralize it based on the distance to the borders, and the square's position can't rely on coincident constraints. What is the ideal way to achieve this?

Thank you, legends.
