DuyQuang Dang's channel just released a video on manual and default fillets. You can use them as chamfers if you leave the curve at zero. The video before is on manual fillets. If you look at about 16:36, you can see the changes in the wireframe that were made. Thanks for the video.
Unfortunately, I had some trouble completing the exercise because my FreeCAD did not snap to the created points in the Draft Module. I had to find the "lock" item (the one in the toolbar, not the one on the bottom - the bottom one only toggles the lock item "on"/"off") and enable all the snap features - perhaps "snap center" would have been good enough.
Did you use Check geometry with BOP check enabled to determine if the solid is in fact valid? It is very common for the this sort of merged pipes to produce self intersection and other geometry errors.
The problem with the freehand b-spline is that it’s really hard to use precisely. It actually has number parameters, but they’re very difficult to use. Probably why it’s called ‘freehand’.
not exactly a question about the video itself but where do you find the setting to hide the lines you are trimming? Mine just turn a light green. All the videos i watch it seems everyone else has found this option. For the life of me i cannot find it. I can't find it in the freecad forums or doing a search on the internet. I get way too many irrelevant returns. thanks
When using the polyline tool, an option box used to appear to input measurements and angles as shown in your video. Now it no longer shows up. Any advice on how to reactivate it?
Hello, once you are in Draft workbench try clicking on "Snap perpendicular" (which has a symbol of upside down T), or "Snap center" (Symbol of a target), or "Snap intersection" (symbol of X). Let me know if that works.
I struggled with this as well. Look closely at his tool bar in the draft bench. He has Snap Endpoint, Snap Midpoint, Snap Center, Snap Intersection, Snap Perpendicular and Snap Near all activated. Once I copied this, I got it to work. I just need to know how to make trimmed lines disappear instead of turning light green.
Showing what and how will be done before style is excellent. Thank you
Excellent tutorial
Great job, nice tutorial
Thanks for sharing , looking forward for more videos of your teaching .
This is so good! Very good tutorial, well explained and very interesting model. Thank you!
Very informative. Thanks for the tutorial.
Thanks, This’s a great example !
Make sure the snap endpoint green icon is ON in the Drafts workbench. Otherwise it seems like it snaps but it won't.
You may be able to create that fillet in FreeCad manually using Surface or Curves workbench.
Very usefull, great job.
Very nice example! And great program lsprepost, didn't know about it.
Nice tutorial; very informative; THX

great one !
Awesome, thanks!
Very great. Thank you 🙂
good tutorial for a good example
All was going well until the missing feature required using alternative software not available on all operating systems, unlike FreeCAD.

nice tutorial... couldnt you just shell the pipe?

thank you
Very nice indeed. Could you link to the print?
Freehand bspline from curves workbench may also help?

Hello, I can't seem to snap the polyline to the first point.
Can you help me please?
TIA, Avri

@@ComputerizedEngineering thank you. I did that. it's working now

👍
Too fast for me.😅
Lol, too fast to me also but we can pause the video at anytime Bro
