There are times I’d like to get a measurement of a room’s layout. I know there are some apps that do this, but a lot are just full of premium pay wall stuff.
I’m just trying to get the dimensions of my office (it is an odd shape) so I can okay around with potential furniture layouts.
Yeah i was like, just let me get FreeCAD for this lil modelling projected i wanted to do…
Downloaded open it, try to use it, then tucked my dick… called a pro
I’m persevering because I want to use free software to design my 3d prints, but… it’s difficult, very difficult… I’m about to give up and go back to commercial CAD.
is commercial easier?
pirate it at least
Well of course I’m not paying several thosand euros just to design doodads for personal use.
Yes it’s easier. WAY easier. You can learn a lot with the traditional ones just experimenting, and newer stuff like Fusion 360 is even easier. With FreeCAD, you need to watch a tutorial for the simplest things.
I’m in the same boat… have made a model of my house in SH3D and sketchup in the past. Have since tried doing it in freecad but it really is a struggle but im persevering. Hopefully one day it’ll just “click” but its a major time sink atm so im putting it off
