Beginner Tutorial 2/5 - Onshape 3D CAD - Adding Features

[@hendrikjbboss9973]

It is clear to me that this instructor (teacher) has exceptional skill in teaching. I found this to be immensely helpful and useful to me. Thank you.

[@CADSessions]

Thanks Hendrik!

[@hendrikjbboss9973]

It is my sincere pleasure.

I have created my first guided solid with this software, I could read all the manuals and still get lost, so, 90% credits go to the teacher. This guy surely knows how to teach. Never seen any other teacher like this before, tech-wise. Thank you, Sir!

[@sudarshankj]

The instructor is crystal clear in his explanation. Have not found anything better than this till date. Thank you for doing this.

[@EdwardKilner]

Watched both 1 and 2 parts. I’m amazed at how intuitive this software is. Some fine program design work was done on it, thank you. I’ve tried and failed at CAD before. Might be over now.

[@SuperNova153]

I agree with the other comments, your use of language is exceptional. Your dialogue makes these processes so clear and easy to understand. The timing of the voiceover matched with the on-screen actions is perfect. Thank you so much for putting your time and effort in creating these tutorials! They're such a great help and I can spend more time commenting on how great your video is instead of tinkering around trying to figure out how to use the CAD program :)

[@sacredbaloney]

Exceptional teaching skills. David knows exactly what is pertinent and what the pitfalls are, and issues the necessary instruction without excessive verbiage. Onshape should pay him handsomely for this service.

[@th0har]

Mnay years ago I learned another CAD tool mostly through trial and error and it probably took me over a week to learn what this video has taught me in under 20 minutes. This dude is a hero.

[@g.1667]

Incredibly easy to follow ive been watching for only 20 minutes and have already created my first model and i am printing now

[@rickbill4260]

I'm brand new to any CAD software and you have made this so clear and easy to understand. Thanks so much for taking the time to put these tutorials together.

[@PatJones82]

6-year-old video and it is still an EXCELLENT resource! This guy is awesome!! THANK YOU SIR! :)

[@NETBotic]

I was just thinking it's so nice of Onshape to not drastically change things around every release. It's hard to believe a 6 year old video is still valid. Love it!

[@34sisantachhatoi34]

Teachers like this make complicated things like this simple and easy.

[@aestheticvenom7599]

I know right my instructor teacher he makes things look complicated so I had to watch a video to understand

[@donwood7700]

I am a retired manufacturing engineer. I worked in a sheet metal facility (NC lasers, punches, and brakes). We used Pro/E as our CAD/CAM system. I am excited to find a free system that is very similar to what I am familiar with. You have created very nice tutorials! Thanks, Don

[@turboromy]

I've used SW many years ago and was always curious about ProE. Never had a chance to learn it. Good to hear it is similar after all.

[@lilynaf]

A 50 yo learning something new for hobby. Thank you so much!

[@MrTrollHunter]

Very helpful, I have understood a lot of basics I have missed out on just by watching the first two videos here. Thank you

[@yatindersingh5319]

Just saw the first video and I'm so impressed that I've directly subscribed this learning channel. i have seen two webinars of ONSHAPE also ,but this tutorial video is much much better than that . Really helpful , Thanks.

[@juanrivera4358]

I'm not sure who the instructor in the video is (David Thomazy ?) but he is THE BEST !! Onshape should contract him as their Official online trainer. He is better than any other online CAD instructor that I have ever come across. Best wishes my friend !!

[@mariusnielsen5131]

Really thank you this helped me a lot. My school is using this program for some classes and I think I can really impress my teacher now.

[@alexg5107]

You've got a natural talent for teaching.

[@themountain59]

Just wow..I was struggling with Freecad forever since my fusion360 ran out not knowing that onshape is soooo much better!! This tutorial is awesome in every way...thaks so much!👍

[@Ravensroy]

Your tutorials were so helpful, I got a good grade because of you. Thanks

[@Rcschim]

I really like your tutorial style! I guess it helps that you were (are?) a teacher in real life ;) Onshape seems really powerfull and convenient - just what I was looking for (coming from Tinkercad for 3D modeling). greets, Mario

[@mriot288]

OK I have to say these tutorials are AWESOME!!! Thanks so much for your work in this!

[@simplifiedshanto7597]

One of the best tutorial series I have ever experienced on KZbin. Thanks a lot.

[@TheWilliamDouglas]

THIS is how to teach. Took me a second to find the right basics videos.... so excellent. Great work and thank you!

[@pinklady7184]

Don't forgive to give this guy a thumb up.

[@bobvogel9916]

Before retiring ~8 years ago I had used Pro-E and Solidworks. Just heard of Onshape via "Stuff Made Here", and signed up. Opened it and... Like going between Solidworks and Pro-E... it looks similar, but I can't figure out how to do anything. :-) First KZbin video to show up was this, and after 1 video I feel 'in control' again. I'm sure the rest of the series will be as useful and I'll once again be able to design parts. THANKS for the great video.

[@kennethpaulson6540]

I just found your videos and they have been extremally helpful. I'm an absolute beginner to this and really needed some starting tutorials. I just ordered my first 3D printer and need to learn CAD to use it properly as I've got some specialty projects for work and no one else knows any CAD. I really like the way you are able to make things clear and step by step. 6 years after you posted this video, your instructions still work perfectly. Thank you.

[@sakeats]

this tutorial is really helpful I have to learn this in a short amount of time, and your videos are helping me a lot

[@royalhindass3027]

SAME

[@vincentalykin]

This was a good tutorial. The only issue I have is at the beginning -- you hadn't announced to the audience that you had "hidden" the 3 planes and the origin. I hadn't noticed this, and I was working through the tutorial until I got to the part of placing the center point. I saw the origin dot already present and I confused as to why a circle was already at there. I went back and forth a few times to figure it out, until I finally realised that it was the origin dot, which you had hidden but had not announced in the video that you had hidden.

[@Aminata-tw6en]

wow you are so much better than my actual teacher! these videos are easy to follow along and very helpful... i wish you were my teacher omg. thank you so much!!!!

[@THEONLYNIKOMATH]

This tutorial is awesome! I'm so excited to start creating with this! One thing that would aid in viewers comprehension is if there was a finished picture of the feature of the model you are explaining about and trying to create.

[@CADSessions]

Thanks Niko. I agree, I feel the same way. I’ve actually started doing that for the next batch of content that I’ll be releasing 😉

[@MarkSnop]

These are really great videos. I’m just starting all of this and playing through it a little bit at a time. Thank you for being so patient and an excellent teacher.

[@xoversprayurfacex8388]

Fantastic walk through. I'm going to keep working on this. Awesome features and great teaching skills.

[@sreihart]

Oh my, you explain this so clearly. I was easily able to follow along and I'm a 70 yo woman!

[@sfallier]

At around 7 minutes - I'm unable to reference the midpoint of the smaller line segment like you do here. Is this something that's changed in OnShape? Is there a hotkey I need to press or a different tool I need to use?

[@Kyosama08]

Just figured it out. It probably was a change that Onshape did in the software. Select the corners of the rectangle first. Top left corner, then top right corner, then bottom left corner, then bottom right corner. You will then be able to select the mid-points.

[@randommatrix9]

@@Kyosama08 This doesn't work for me. Any reason why?

Extremly clear video just want to watch them all because of how good he his

[@mrembeh1848]

Hello, I tried many different programs to design with. All were kinda crappy. I almost gave up and stumbled across onshore. Your tutorial is so amazing that it will get me back on track. I own a small entry level 3D printer and thus far I only printed things other people uploaded, which limits the possibilities, but today that changed :D I really liked how you always say “okay” and "we want that”. It sounds kinda stupid at first, but it really helps the though process soo much... Also when you explained how to find the midpoint of the face on the right.... man that feature is so amazing and even the guy that told me about how he is using on shape for more than a year din't know about it. And you explained it so well. Thank you very much!

[@CADSessions]

Thanks Embeh!

thanks sir you taught in a great easy way and very clearly

[@stepbystepscience]

Anther excellent tutorial, tq!

[@RajinderYadav]

David this is excellent teaching, learning proper techniques of drawing with constraints! Two videos in, I am starting to feel super confident with this otherwise intimidating tool.

I actually find this video pretty intertaining. Ecxept for me doing it i class. Pretty good job

[@geoffphil]

Absolutely the best CAD instruction I've watched. Brilliant teaching, thanks!

[@joshporter4264]

This is the best tutorial I've ever watched! I remember everything, it's nice and detailed, while also being very entertaining, I could've never done anything close to this on something as simple as Tinkercad! I'm so happy to move on to the last 3 parts of the beginner tutorial! Tanks again!

[@freakyfox5229]

nice paced easy to follow tutorials that cover some nice basics. Helped me get starting from scratch, never touched any 3D drawing/rendering program before. But now in approximately 1 hour, I made my first basic model. =) thanks for the tutorials, looking forward to the more in depth tutorials that I'll get to later.

[@jmans4928]

Excellent clear tutorial , Thanks 👍

[@kumelachewmaru2225]

resolved my own problem. i was creating the extrusion without deleting the previous extrusion created.

[@bernardoalfaro2121]

6:50 This feature seems to be gone now. I can't highlight the center of a segment simply by hovering the cursor. Any idea how to do it now?

[@amywasson4238]

This man could go on about this software for 4 hours

[@OwenRothwell-m1k]

I would have no idea what to do without this tutorial. It is very clean and well edited. Thank you so much! :)

[@daveola]

Great videos, great instructor. It would have been nice to at least mention that the dovetail can also be done by using a draft extrude from the top, it's much easier and generally more robust, though I think showing the dovetail sketch as drawn is a useful thing to learn as well.

[@joshuaf4867]

Great tutorials, thanks so much!!!!

[@midrangemaven8153]

Could this part actually be used for something in manufacturing? Does it have a name? Thank you for the video it was really interesting

[@randommatrix9]

At 6:59, the middle point is not showing for the rectangle. Is this because I am using an updated version of OnShape, or is there something I have to change in my settings? Any reply/answer would help, thanks.

[@CADSessions]

I just tested it, and it’s showing up fine. Are you sure you have one of the feature buttons pre-selected, such as Line? If nothing is pre-selected, the center point will not highlight.

[@OnlinePersona-ub1lz]

had the same problem, for me i had not drawn the lines across. if you go back to when the lines originally are drawn, you can see that you also draw lines connecting to both verticle ends, creating an actual rectangle. It's easy to miss

[@candrew34]

It's not calculating the dimension from the edge of the rectangle to the edge of the inner rectangle. It's only calculating the full length of the top line. Do you have an idea what I might be doing wrong?

[@Kyosama08]

Just figured it out. It probably was a change that Onshape did in the software. Select the corners of the rectangle first. Top left corner, then top right corner, then bottom left corner, then bottom right corner. You will then be able to select the mid-points.

[@carlos.galhano]

Para quando mais vídeos tutoriais? Excelente trabalho parabéns.

[@VicdeBlois]

You are amazing!! Thank you for the tutorials

[@yvesinformel221]

As a total newbie, this is fantastic, press esc and move the line... ahhh that is why I could not move it, mentionning about vertical and coincidence icon while making a line. how to restart when I mess up like click on white space and start over, newbies always make mistake

[@MondoLeStraka]

After following the instructions @15:00 to 15:30 I keep coming up with 'can't dimension to itself' or similar. Is there a fix, etc.?

[@jimbrooks5496]

you need a second object to dimension to. Sometimes adding a point will let you do that

[@MondoLeStraka]

@@jimbrooks5496 Thanks but, the error message still appears: Sketch could not be solved.

Damn you make it easy for me to understand, thank you so much 🙏.

[@davidsh331x]

I am thinking that these were very nice videos in their day, but I am unfortunately having trouble following along with 7 years of software revisions between us. A lot is mostly the same, but some of your movements in your version I am not able to reproduce in my version. Kind of like you, in a Model T, trying to teach me to drive in a Ferrari. Any suggestions? Thank you... I should mention that I am trying to advance from a good bit of experience with TinkerCad, to something more powerful and flexible.

thanks bro regards from Syria

[@kumelachewmaru2225]

i created my dovetail, when i extruded it it went beyond the substrate material. it appeared red. looking at the isometric view, i see the original rectangle and circle with hidden line inside the block. I did edited my dimensions before this happened. what do you think happening here?

[@turboromy]

I wasted a few days trying this garbage called DesignSpark thinking it works like SW. Onshape is SW !!! This 2nd tutorial convinced me to the right direction.

[@ajaybhati5830]

really good tutorials

[@chrisw1462]

When I moved the 'center slot' sketch to the middle, I got a little too close. When I tried to draw the central construction line, it stuck to the full shape's sketch instead of the slot. Make sure you move the 'slot' off center just enough to avoid that (or construct the center line before moving it).

[@Oaklestat]

Thank you a ton. Great tutorial

[@albertturner4081]

These are so good, thankyou so much

[@Jako4460]

Great introduction

[@bread8176]

At 18:00 why did that set the diameter, rather than the circumference? The edge selected represented the circle's circumference and there was no edge or construction representing the diameter. Is that just convention?

[@yotubenick]

Excellent clear instructions

[@bettydaltonnewbold2019]

At 17:16 you said to "uncheck now remembers". Where is that found, please?

[@theDude9750]

Please stop using inches and talking so much about inches. Love the content and the calm you explain things with. I never had the patience to learn CAD but you pulled me in.

[@ViktorNiniadis]

My respect! Very useful!

[@frankpaynter6536]

I noticed that in order to mark the center of the rectangle (6:58 in the above video), I had to zoom out so that both the top and bottom edges were shown. Then I could see *two* rectangles - the one for the center of the circle, and the one for the center of the rectangle. However, the rectangle center highlight was only visible on the bottom edge of the rectangle, not the top edge
