@freecad@social.freecad.org Oh it's #freecadfriday already! Well here's one for the "must you 3D print everything" category. Our arcade's new toilet has this tiniest of the tiny sink. We've had the soap dispenser on it awkwardly behind the tap while I've been hoping to find some kind of a wall mountable solution. All I could find was those flimsy suction cup mounted ones that you'll find on the floor after a while. I measured the the space between the wall and the sink and then made this. It fits there snugly and holds the soap bottle where it's actually easy to use from. #3dprinting #freecad

Today, @purism@social.librem.one released the CAD models for the Librem 16 Linux laptop in both the widely used STEP and FreeCAD formats. "Purism products are made to be repaired." https://puri.sm/posts/a-step-ahead-for-customization-with-the-librem-16/ #librem16, #L16, #righttorepair #CAD #FOSS #opensource #FreeCAD #STEP #Linux #laptop #CCbySA40 #creativecommons #purism

Sigh, looks like the Snap version of #freecad is still broken on #Ubuntu Earlier a KDE snap distro package broke it in a way it didn't even start any more. Now it starts but most work benches don't work and the UI is messed up. Reverting the KDE framework package kf6-core24 back to revision 36 fixes it again.

I've just made a tiny video as I ran out of time to explain a thing to @robives@mastodon.social in @cccpresser@chaos.social brilliant @freecad@social.freecad.org workshop at #EMFcamp it's about the sketcher workbench and how external projections can sometimes cause "wire not closed" errors. I saw a few in the room so here is a very quick primer! #FreeCAD https://makertube.net/w/ftRLmrNB1ghrpWpYWScfvQ

Not Friday anymore, but my #FreeCADFriday was about getting some #QualityOfLife things together. Got my rotating hanging bar up again after a small redesign of the bearing holders. Also designed and #3DPrinted an end stop for my nieces' hang bar since they're worried that it'll fall out of the bearing. Haven't had my #PineTime on my arm for a few days since the strap broke. Printed a small loop in ASA and cut the zip flap off a discarded rain jacket to make myself a new one. #FreeCAD #DIY

Finished rebuilding a #FreeCAD model in #OpenSCAD to learn the ins and outs, only to find out that I can't fillet or chamfer my resulting object without some absolutely *ridiculous* tomfoolery involving offset hacks and other nonsense. Very disappointing.

For posterity, here are the fillets (first image) and chamfers (second image) I made in #FreeCAD.

FreeCAD FYI for those who use the Snap package: If after yesterday (Jul 3) FreeCAD refuses to start, you need to revert the updated kf6-core24 package. #freecad

This weeks #FreeCADFriday job is a little meta: making a handout for a upcoming #FreeCAD workshop in out hackerspace. This is heavily inspired from the #KiCad workshops I have been doing in the past, copying the basic concept.
