What you'll learn
  • Create 2D sketches using sketching tools, constraints, dimensions, and reference geometry.
  • Model 3D parts using Pad, Pocket, Revolve, Loft, Pipe, Groove, Pattern, and other modeling tools.
  • Assemble components using the Assembly workbench with proper joints and constraints.
  • Generate 2D technical drawings with views, dimensions, annotations, and title blocks.

Description
Welcome to Complete FreeCAD for Beginners – No Experience Needed, a hands-on course designed to take you from absolute beginner to confidently designing, assembling, and drafting real-world mechanical models using FreeCAD — a powerful, free, and open-source CAD tool.



This course is ideal for beginners with no prior experience in CAD. You’ll start by learning how to navigate FreeCAD’s interface, switch between workbenches, customize the workspace, and understand how FreeCAD handles documents, views, and display styles. You’ll then move into the Sketcher Workbench, where you’ll learn how to create and constrain a variety of 2D geometries, including lines, arcs, splines, slots, rectangles, and more.



As you progress, you’ll build real-world 3D models using features like Pad, Pocket, Revolve, Loft, Pipe, Groove, and Helix. You’ll also work with advanced modeling tools like patterns, fillets, chamfers, draft angles, and shell features. You’ll learn to create and manage datum planes, axes, and local coordinate systems for more complex models.



The course also covers FreeCAD’s Assembly Workbench, where you’ll create both top-down and bottom-up assemblies using standard mechanical joints like revolute, slider, cylindrical, and ball joints.



Finally, you’ll transition to 2D technical documentation using the TechDraw Workbench, creating views, section cuts, detail views, adding dimensions, and exporting your drawings as DXF or SVG files.



By the end of this course, you'll be able to confidently sketch, model, assemble, and document your mechanical designs in FreeCAD.

Who this course is for:
  • Aspiring engineers, designers, and students who want to learn 3D CAD using FreeCAD from scratch.
  • Hobbyists, makers, and tinkerers interested in 3D modeling, mechanical design, or DIY projects.
  • Professionals from non-CAD backgrounds looking to enter the world of 3D design without prior experience.
  • Anyone who wants to create 3D parts, assemblies, and technical drawings using free, open-source software.
