Please notice the version of FreeCAD used in the tutorial as some tutorials may use an old version of the program. Although the general modelling process may still work, some tools may have changed.

Modeling parts
FreeCAD provides two main workflows to modeling parts:
 * combining objects, a method called Constructive solid geometry (CSG) using the Part workbench, and
 * using parametric modelling and feature editing with the PartDesign Workbench.

Please note that the PartDesign Workbench workflow was considerably changed from FreeCAD 0.17 onward; some of the tutorials haven't been updated and may refer to the 0.16 version.

The Raspberry Pi project has made simple tutorials that are easy to follow, particularly for those new to CAD systems:
 * freecad-dice, model a die with six faces, and optionally 3D print it.
 * freecad-headphone-tidy, model a spool to organize and store earphones, and optionally 3D print it.
 * freecad-chess-set, model and entire chess set in Bauhaus modernist style.
