[β] TurboToad@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (2 children) Is FreeCAD good for 3D printing stuff? I started learning fusion but I'm kinda digusted by being tied to autodesk permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [β] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 5 points 5 months ago I just started making some headway into using it and I've found it way less intuitive than Fusion. It also seems to be more finnicky about constraints and such. Like I wasn't able to extrude something because I had lines intersecting each other. Just have to be more methodical and use more sketches I guess. Im still on my first project with it though and haven't gotten to the point of printing anything yet though so take that with a grain of salt. permalink fedilink source parent [β] python@lemmy.world 1 point 5 months ago I'd say so! I made some 3D-printed pipes to connect my snake's terrarium extension as my first real project and they turned out pretty good. But I have no comparisons to other CAD software haha permalink fedilink source parent
