Modeling Techniques Intro
The first (and basic) technique of solid modeling is Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG). There is also a detailed explanation (in the context of FreeCAD) of Constructive_Solid_Geometry on the wiki. You work with primitive shapes like cubes, cylinders, spheres and cones to construct your geometry by combining them, subtracting one shape from the other, or intersecting them. These tools are part of the Part Workbench. You can also apply transformations on shapes, like applying rounds or chamfers on edges. These tools are also in the Part Workbench.
