PartDesign Bearingholder Tutorial I



This is an introductory tutorial to modeling with the PartDesign workbench in FreeCAD. The purposes of the tutorial are to introduce you to two different workflows for creating a cast part with drafts and rounds. Depending on what other CAD programs you have been using, one or the other might be familiar to you. As a working example we will be modeling a simple bearing holder.

This is the first part of the tutorial. It will use what might be called the 'single body' workflow, using the (simpler) top part of the holder as an example.
