Please pay attention to the version of FreeCAD used in the tutorial. If a tutorial uses an older version of the program, the general modelling process may still work but some tools may have changed in newer releases. Do not add videos made with version 0.16 or older, as these releases are considered obsolete.

Introduction

The tutorials listed here are those that deal with design of physical products for manufacturing or 3D printing. For other topics, see the general page video tutorials.

Visit tutorials for high quality written tutorials. A complete, unsorted list of tutorials can be found in Category:Tutorials.

Product design

Videos that go through modeling of various solid objects using workbenches such as Part, PartDesign, and Sketcher.

English

  • Joko Engineeringhelp playlists: many videos on 3D modelling with tools like FreeCAD and Blender.
    • FreeCAD: a series of 85 videos describing many topics in FreeCAD including finite element analysis (FEM), a tutorial for new users coming from other programs, developing a model using an image as reference, how to use variables and equations to design models, and also showcases some complex models, like a full cylinder head for an engine.
