We just modify the height field to be 2 times the material thickness. The lid handle is easy as it is nearly identical to the lid sides. This cube is saved as our handle.įor the top pieces that will hold the lid in place we add two times the material thickness to the length field of the handle and make the height 4 times the material thickness.Īfter saving this cube as LidSides the components of the box are done and we only need two more cubes for the lid. We save the File and ShortSide and then modify the height field to be a fourth of the inner height. We can just modify the length field of the LongSide Cube and save it with another name. The lenght of these sides is the inner width, the width is the material thickness and the height is the same as for the long sides.

The width is the thickness of the material, the length is the same as the length of the bottom and the height is the inner height plus the material thicknes.Īfter saving this cube to a file names LongSide we get to the short sides. The width is the inner lenght plus four times the material thickness. The length of the bottom is the inner with plus 2 times the material thickness for the side pieces. It does not matter which dimension is the thickness so we can also use the height field of the cube for the material thickness. The formulas are entered as we did in part 1 of this series. This would be for example master#p.material. This cube gets then dimensions from the spreadsheet in the format filename, hashtag, table name, dot, variable name. Next we create a new file for each individual board. We save the file with the spreadsheet under the filename master.

#FREECAD TUTORIALS HOW TO#

We covered the creation of spreadsheets and how to install this macro on the last tutorial. We use a macro to create aliases for these numbers so that we can refer to them by name

The first step is to create this spreadsheet with all the dimensions.įor the box these are the material thickness, as well as the inner width, height and length. We have a shorter overview article on this toolbox but in this video we will use FreeCAD version 0.19 and slowly go step by step through the assembly process. this video is all about how to learn freecad through the realthunder branch for 3d printing.In this tutorial we create step by step an assembly of a Japanese toolbox in FreeCAD. the tutorials will become more complex as we learn the basics of freecad and the utilities of the part workbench including creating basic shapes and moving objects.
