Thank you for your efforts, I enjoyed learning from you.Great tutorial, great pace, easy to follow and made me go over it until I got it right,Thanks again.
Hallo, und danke shoen fur der video, ganz klar und zehr lehrreig. Entshuldige mein deutch. Ich habe alles gefolgd zowie im video und es klapt. Ich frage mich doch ob das so zu drucken ist mit ein 3D printer. Is das nicht zuviel Uberhang?
@@hagei406 Ich habe das object gedreht in meshDesign so dass es mit die drei flugel auf der xz ebene liegt und dan habe ich es gedruckt. Wie dass mit supportstuktur functioniert kenne ich noch nicht, bin gans neu im denn field. Trotsdem danke fur die gute video's. Jean aus belgien.
@@germona Support is a function of your slicer. It normally just needs enabling. Also printing upside down is a function of the Slicer. Glad it worked for you.
I followed all the steps in the video - however, I was not able to create a fillet on one of the sides of the curve part. Error was "Resulting shape is invalid". What could be the issue? Version 0.18.4
OK so I went back and it seemed I did not fully constraint the sketch for the pocket operation. Thanks for the video series - I learned a lot of techniques from you.
I am trying to do this tutorial using 0.18, 4(Git Tag). I am successful up to the 19:58 mark where you prepare to complete the tangs on the knobs and give them a more rounded and finished appearance. I am not getting the 3-circle to appear in the "external geometry" to tangent against the inside curve of the cutout. For whatever, reason it just appears out of nowhere here, but I can't get it to show on my work. I have attempted to find my mistake but I am at a standstill. If you are able to comment on this and give me some guidance I would greatly appreciate it.
Hi, send me the current file to my paypal adress, i will have a look then and try to find what went wrong. Usually it´s a problem with the sequence of the previous constraints.
@@hagei406, Thank you for your response. I went back in after watching it again. I repeated that area about 6 times until I got it. You are right, if one of the previous constraints is not right it will throw the rest of the object off. I finally finished this lesson and the file looks good and I exported to S3D to see what it would look like for printing. So far it is great. It just takes patience and practice. I will repeat this lesson from the beginning to get the process down. Thank you.
Thank you very much for your assistance. I settled down and went back through the lesson. Just as you said about the sequence. Your lessons are very good. Just a note, I have not been back to Germany since I passed through in 2010 on a mission trip to Ukraine. Previously I was stationed there from 1969-1974 and then from 1977-1980. I enjoyed the culture and the scenery and the people I met. I was trained in photography by two German friends in Baumholder. Thank you again, Danke.
@@hagei406 I apologize for this inconvenience but I can't get your Paypal address to come up in order to send you a file that I was able to create. I would like you to critique it and let me know what could have done better. Here is my email: scr71mslpa@gmail.com.
Ha: I have found your tutorials really useful, not just this one but all of them. I followed along on the tutorial and built the model in part because I wanted to make some knobs. The result ( more or less as I am still tinkering with it ) is on github: russ-hensel/nut_knob: A parametric model ( FreeCad )of a knob for tool free adjustment of nuts and hex head bolts. github.com/russ-hensel/nut_knob Of course I did not follow the tutorial exactly. In addition to my mistakes: Did not do the material reducing cut out. Added a spreadsheet to control some of the sizes ( this also seemed to break some of the model the chamfers in particular ) Tried to improve of the model part names. Now do chamfers by: Use Part -> refine to create a new part Chamfer with Part -> chamfer The refinement is not parametric so do a new itteration each time I change the underlying model. I would like to know what you think, you can find an eamil for me at github README.md. Thanks: Russ
@@hagei406 just a nudge, perhaps as an xmass present. I am working on another as well, perhaps I will post to the freeCad forum, and look for you there. I know you have other stuff to do.
@@russhensel russ, i had a look.. The problem lies in the sketch004 . Maybe my original mistake , or a glitch at the rework. The lower right triangle is fixed to the blue and red circles.This finally resutls in some gap. I chenged by rewmoving them and adding a tangent from the line edge2 to the red circle. This now gives a proper transition between circle and line, which finally can be chamfered. I an pass this model back to you, i try to find your mail adress..if you don´t get it, send me a mail to my donation adress and i reply from there.
@@artur8403 Simple, after closing the sketch, you will in most cases not see all new entered geometry, as the zoom just goes back to where it was BEFORE you created the sketch. In this case, it only shows the inner 2 circles as the outer one is far beyond the screen area. This is a well know effect and will mention in a later video.I changed zoom later in the video.
