  • In this instalment of the FreeCAD Framing Series, I show how to create a "Smart" shape. This rafter can be adjusted to meet the needs of the structure you might be framing. This technique could be used for many types of objects.
    ( Sorry for the ratio problem on screen, I am adjusting to new version of OpenShot ).

    Good info man! Just another tip if you allow me: You can avoid the 2nd construction line at 4:42 by using the "Constraint point onto object" on the line above the bird's mouth, and a point on the line under the birds mouth. (The point you constraint will be on the imaginery extension of the line)
    And the x8 lumber is 7.25" not 7.5" :) :)

      Thanks that's good info. I almost always forget the point on line is the whole line not just the visible segment. Sometimes when it slides off the end , I think I've done something wrong :)
      I'll update the x8 from now on, thanks again.

    Great video, and I became a Patron subscriber thanks to this video. I've created a rafter part, now how do I add it to my 3D model of my pavilion?

      The best way, I think, is to use the Draft Clone. Make as many clone copies as you need, or one clone then use an array, and maybe another clone at the end. The great thing about the draft clone is that it will update as you make changes in your "calculator"

    If I'm not mistaken, the rise and run must necessarily be measured from a common vertex and measured to the common plane normal to the two lines. atan will give you the angle of the rise/run

      Thanks Baruch, I will add this to the description so viewers will be forewarned. I often try to mention that although I like math I am not good at math :)

    This program has SOOOOO MUCH potential but is not ready for production, but surely ready for small things. Imma have to uninstall and reinstall mine, I need the dimensions to show but they never show as quick and simple like yours, i have to draw them in giving me screwed up dimensions. You have a video I can watch on the "basics" of using this program and maybe "how to build a wall" or something?

      So this video is part of a series. ruclips.net/p/PLkRx3bM9e3yDefdoU5mRU8QrtSSoKFDP-
      If you start with the floor that might get you going, plus I have a busload of beginner FreeCAD videos. Some are better than others, and some are terrible. But there is always something to learn.

    Hi, How did you get this rafter into your BasicShed files?

    great video. Can you do a video where you show the generated code as you draw, bring attention to how the code is written?

      I am working on doing FreeCAD coding videos. It has a lot of nuance so it has been difficult trying to determine a good approach.

    Can a cube be made with a 45 degree miter?

    • @mathcodeprint
      @mathcodeprint  3 года назад

      Yes, you can use the "Draft on Face". I didn't use that as it is a little hard to understand. I try to keep the number of complexities in each video down to a minimum. Additionally, it became slightly convoluted to place a draft on a draft. I avoided chamfer due to the implementation, as it also added complexity.

      @@mathcodeprint thanks. I was making a model of a deck I'm building that has a 45 degree angle on one side. I was using a cube to make the deck boards . I ran into the angle and couldn't find a way to make the cube have a miter. I used the method in this video to make a "smart decking board" . It worked. Thanks for the videos!

    Dude you need to stop saying "uh" and "umh" all the time, it's really difficult to listen to after a while

      @Missagan when you go out fo dinner and the food is too salty, do you open a restaurant the next day to show that chef how it is done properly?
