very familiar workflow if you are used to onshape. I just would like the option when working with assembly how it uses linked parts to reference a clone over the actual source file, sketch/pad/revolve/filleted part to keep the assembly cleaner and to prevent miss haps on deletion when adding and removing joints.
Hi Katt, you make excellent content. As a beginner with FreeCAD 1.0 RC2 assembly, i want ask you to make a video of how to align objects in the new assembly workbench. For instance I fail to align two cubes on top of each other that are drawn random in space. I tried to use the distance joint but my cubes do not align correctly.
@@kattkushol I have this specific problem, one pad that is 1900x850x18mm and another that is 2000x800x180mm and has rounded corners. The first one is my Bed-bottom (for camper). The second one is the matras that is to be fixed to the Bed-bottom. the matras is to be aligned in one corner with the bed-bottom. I fail to get this richt, there is always an offset that i don't want, this is because the two pad are not equal in size. To generalize this I would like to know how to: 1. Align a smaller square pad to a bigger one and align of the corners (2 edges). 2. Align one smaller rectangular pad exactly in the middle of another bigger rectangular pad, To make it more complicated, make the corners rounded so that you cannot select a vertex. 3. Same idea for a cilinder, how to connect it to a square pad in the middle or at a corner. This problem would not exist if it would be possible to glue two bodies as they are in the drawing so without moving them, but i do not know how.
@@edingcnc7685 I will make an example on this scenario, maybe next week. For your immediate need, try building different parts based on sketches where they should be. It's easy to pinpoint a sketch. Then during assembly, add one part at a time. They will retain their original build position. Once you add a part, "ground" it. You can have multiple grounded parts. Those will work as if they are glued together.
@@kattkushol Yes, I have seen that, there are too many options to insert a part in the assembly. One part at a time keeps its place. But when e.g. a fixed joint is applied it shifts. I would like to make a fixed joint without shifting the parts.

This is an excellent way to create a slider. Thank you for sharing this! :)
thanks. glad you liked it.
Thanks!

Sure. I will try to address that in one of my next videos.
