Learn how to do and see how I do CAD-like modeling in blender 3.5 using CAD Sketcher. This is pretty much a brand new parametric precision modelling workflow for blender. CAD Sketcher is very much still in early development but things are looking very promising and growing quickly.

I'm coming from SolidWorks with 15 Years of Experience and I've also been using Blender for several years now (for the tasks that were impossible in SW). Now I have to admit that this CAD Sketcher Addon (along with the tutorials from the awesome Blender community) is pure GOLD. Of course, CAD is not only about sketching, it needs robust cross-part referencing, static and dynamic mating, data management, etc etc... But still, this is becoming a game changer and I'd like to see it grow into maturity - the 'big CAD players' are sooo annoyingly restrictive and expensive. For example, I can't even have two different Versions of SolidWorks on the same OS!! (which MUST be Microsoft Windows 10 at least). Seriously? Blender, however, doesn't give a **** and I love it for that.

@andrewthemorley Год назад

Just wanted to say - with your videos + the jewelcraft addon, I was able to make 3D resin prints to use in a lost wax casting for an engagement ring and wedding ring for my now wife. The rings turned out amazing, and its your videos that really made me believe it was possible. Thanks so much!

@Keep-Making Год назад

Thank you for sharing that! I'm so happy to hear I've been able to help you out in your maker journey and congratulations to you both!

@mightamin 6 месяцев назад

I've been struggling to learn any cad program out there, and not really sure which program to go with. Your videos sealed the deal for me for blender. The other programs out there may suit my needs better but there are no good tutorials for any of them that I've found. You do a great job explaining every single step and it's mind blowing how well you do it. Thanks for the content!

@Reavenk Год назад

Very cool workflow! For the Merge By Distance, if you want that operation in your original object, nondestructively, don't forget you can make that a modifier via Geometry nodes.

@ZaidanMhmood 2 месяца назад

I won't be using these tools soon but this helps to rethink the process. Thanks a lot for the useful video.

@MrGridStrom Год назад

I really like what Cad sketcher is becoming. I've been creating 3D printable objects in blender for around a year now, infact ive learned a bunch from your channel. Its been such a struggle to get measurements precise in blender. Lately to counter this ive been learning freecad using the RealThunder FreeCad fork, so learning that has helped me instantly understand how Cad sketcher works, so this is extremely cool. However some of the short cut combinations you were using, (even you you're self are having issues remembering them all). I hope that most of these will have their own dedicated buttons at some point. Until then I have no problem using some sticky notes stuck to my monitor with all the shortcuts. :)

@Keep-Making Год назад

From what I'm aware they all have buttons apart from the selection ones. I'm just a bit of a shortcut fiend 😅

@BrennanLetkeman Год назад

oh my gosh, this is everything I've wanted. I'm primarily a B3D guy, but 3D printing means good dimensioning and I use fusion 360 for that, but it's a pain for everything else - I've tried a few janky addons but having CAD-like numbers and sketching right there natively saves so much time and annoyance

@lookatthisvidsandfun 10 месяцев назад

Still love your style of eplanation! Astonishing upgrades since Blender 2.93 - which i kept using for occasional designs. Time to update. Happy to be on your list of patreons!

When you got the parametric button to edit the base core my jaw dropped. Blender has come so far

@zaca211 11 месяцев назад

The Bool Tool is one of the best addons in Blender. I usually parent the cutters to the main mesh that way if i transform the mesh, the cutters follow.

@Zimbob2424 Год назад

I always have a problem with the trim tool, most of the time it doesn't work at all, probably should check for updates. I also don't worry about applying modifiers, you can set that to automatically apply them when you export stl files. Thanks for the work you do it's appreciated here.

We need offset tool and mirror tool and more control in Bevel tool to be inside or outside the Bevel 😊 in cad tool

@EJBS1991 Год назад

very cool Cad sketcher is definitely worth practicing.

@DG-hw5zy 10 месяцев назад

It's really cool that blender can do this too and great videos... But it's so much easier in freecad for simple parametric models like this.

@Silvergum 6 месяцев назад

Frustratingly as someone who does CNC tool pathing, I think I need to stick with fusion 360 but man, seeing proper parametric design in blender is epic, maybe someday It will do tool pathing too Blender will be everything and everything will be Blender, praise be to Blender

@23lkjdfjsdlfj Год назад

Excellent! Good job getting the tolerances correct so the part actually fit 🙂 CAD Sketcher is really great. I struggle with a few things: 1. I have degrees of freedom: 2

@sburgos9621 Год назад

Im struggling with creating 3d parts that can be assembled with snap fitting, screw, dovetail...joints. I dont see any tutorials on your page regarding these. Can you please make a video on creating snap fitting parts for 3d print including how to create the clearance between the parts to make sure they actually fit without having to sand them to make them fit together?

@DG-hw5zy 10 месяцев назад

you will find more tutorials to design assemblies with mated surfaces for 3D CAD packages. personally I use FreeCAD but any 3D CAD might work. Here are a couple relevant tutorials. Good luck! joko engineering ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sA9K3N-WiN0.html mango jelly - if you so desire ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_GFoU0SIVG4.html PS the quality of the 3d printer plays a huge part in the part quality, not just the 3d model. we printed up a batch of mating covers that were designed in catia. they still required extensive sanding, cutting and epoxy touchups. one or two out of 50 got scrapped because they were a couple mm off. it's not easy and takes a lot of iteration. that's why everyone I know in manufacturing uses CAD not mesh modeling...

@paulthomann7911 Месяц назад

Has development on this add on gone dead? My research on the discord server shows no entries beyond last year. Does it work in 4.0. This is the problem with these add ons. Seem like the dog chasin their tail. The promise is trumpeted until it isn't leaving people wondering if it is worth going down another rabbit hole that might be a dead end.

I recreated your model in build123d which is a new free and open source CAD software that is like a hybrid between OpenSCAD and Fusion360.

CAD sketcher's manifolds painful fixing is the main reason you should switch to onShape despite its steep learning curve. You'd then appreciate the waste of time you spare vs using CAD sketcher.

@novmikvis Год назад

The problem with onshape is the possibility of a rug-pull at any time (see Thomas Sanladerer video). Why invest time in a tool that could be sunset for any reason, when you can learn to work around blender quirks and have the working workflow forever.

@benveasey7474 Год назад

@@novmikvis Well said. I hope Ton R eventually accepts the CAD community. Now that UEFN is unleashed there will be a huge surge of people leaving Blender and jumping ship to Unreal - especially as Unreal's modeling tools evolve. Blender needs users of all shapes and sizes.

SLOW DOWN.

@Cyberwendy Год назад

Good example about, this cad sketcher, is way to complicated. Using regular 3D modeling, is way faster, and just as precise.

@shoppster300 2 месяца назад

@@H1zN yeah but this is free, which I think, is the point. All CAD packages outperform Blender significantly for this sort of modelling. They also cost a fortune.

I have a question -> how well does this add on work on if I'm using blender on linux? Couple years ago I tried to use CAD sketcher to do some simple geometry creation (rectangles and cubes, exploration of functionality), but my system froze and linux restarted. I'm running endeavorOS, does anyone have any suggestions or solutions or has experienced the same thing?
