Freecad course - screw

[@nullsmack]

I really don't understand how you did the thread on the screw but this was a neat video. If you're not doing narration, at least some simple text narration describing what you are doing and why would be handy. It seems like you defined a shape to cut the thread but I couldn't follow how you did it.

[@nameinthai]

I'm stuck at 2:13 with making a pocket. (v 0.18) Error : the active Body does not contain a base shape, so ther is no material to be removed; the selected sketch does not belong to the aactive Body.

[@harryhino2267]

Need commentary describing what you are doing. Music is pointless and adds nothing to your video.

[@jjrb230]

This is wonderful. Thank you very much! What is the easiest way to draw a plate? Yes, a ceramic plate. I used to draw on Alibre, draw the shape and just turn it around an axis, I also draw mugs, bowls, etc.It is difficult to start from zero with a software I don't know

[@pietercloete1499]

Just add speech and explain what and whey you do it.

[@35mmMovieTrailersScans]

OMFG, all of this for a damn screw?.. screw it! lol

[@qzorn4440]

great thread demo... i have been attempting to make some 1/4"_18 threads tapered NPT male pipe threads for sealing 5000 psi... at the very peak point crest it has a tiny 2 to 4 thou flat spot and the taper gives some twisting crest distortion ? this may not be a problem, however for learning purposes it would be nice to find the reason for this error? i think the profile, helix and pitch values are very close, but may need a very small adjustment? thanks a lot...:)

Hi there, very useful lesson. The question is how did you define the mesurins at 5:58 and 6:28?

[@freecadscourse602]

5:58 is the lock constraint. Immobilizes the point relative to the coordinate system, that is, you define the distance from the x and y axes. 6:28 is the vertical distance constraint. It can be used in several ways: definition of line length (along the y axis), definition of distance between two points (along the y axis), definition of distance from the x axis for a single point. Regards :)

Thank you for video.

[@cadonboard]

Nice work, Sir.

[@ywmiu2704]

Very nice

[@attilatolmacsi4712]

Kicsit egyszerűbben is lehet! Az addon managger ben bejelőlni a makrok közül a screw_ macro_1_2 FcMacrot. Telepíteni, újra indítani a Freecad-ot és már is mindenféle csavar a rendelkezésünkre áll.

[@zoltanszabo17]

még egyszerűbb megoldás a "fasteners" workbench addon

[@attilatolmacsi4712]

@@zoltanszabo17 Köszönöm! Kezdő vagyok, meg félig vak, adott esetben kipróbálom, mégegyszer köszi!

[@WTG194]

I get stuck at 1:23 with an error that says I need an active body object in the document, any ideas?

[@WTG194]

Its okay I figured it out with some google searching; once you open the part design page you have to create a body and then you are able to create a sketch

[@android4cg]

Wow ... great !!! Is there any table with all the parameters for metric and inch threads?

[@freecadscourse602]

Yes, they are for sure, but I do not know exactly what threads you mean. Here are some example tables sites.google.com/site/mewithmeccano/screw-threads but I do not know if I helped :) possibly you can always count from the patterns en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_metric_screw_thread

[@Dukeofboots]

Yeah you totally lost me around 4:40 ;)

[@ahmadmohammadi8922]

Thanks.

[@Nordic_Mechanic]

I already cross-threaded the new bolt

[@grautvornix11]

Doesnt work for me as shown; probably same issue as Lucian reported. Maybe it is because of a different FC version ? I use the current one, 0.18.

[@nameinthai]

Me too, stuck since 2:13

[@chinmayhegde9924]

Why did u draw the triangle at 4:52...?

[@mrechbreger]

Can you make a new tutorial with freecad 0.19? everything seems to be slightly different with it.

[@TheSwissGabber]

[@freerideshuttle]

i actually can't build that sketch on the top of the thread and this annoys me so much

[@freerideshuttle]

oh, and I use win 64bit OS

[@claudionascimentodesouza3107]

Thanks!

[@moerichard3110]

Music doesn't explain what's going on. Music sucks.

[@piilupart1462]

I think the music adds a lot to the video. Comments would have been pointless.

[@nicholaslenzini1759]

If you thought this was supposed to be helpful, you are very mistaken. What in the holy hell did you start doing at 6 minutes in.

[@grautvornix11]

I was wrong: the current version I use is the 0.17

[@freecadscourse602]

Video was recorded for version 0.16. It is difficult to diagnose the problem. Maybe somehow the files will help in the description.

[@himi6536]

Right around 4:40 this tutorial becomes absolutely useless from lack of commentary.
