    I just want to say this YouTuber got a sub from me last night. Went into his back catalogue and recent videos were really good and I learned a few nice things.

    Regarding fc1.1, I really like the update. These guys are on the gas and making substantial updates. I can’t overstate how .9 whatever was hard to use vs 1.0 and now 1.1 is another leap again. It’s just great to see.

    I speak as someone that only started learning any CAD as a hobby in the last 5 years. I’ve toyed with every (free) program short of going the pirate route and I’m really glad to see a FOSS alternative start to step up.

    I do still have a laundry list of things I’d like to see them fix/change. But as is, it’s working well enough for my use cases!

      He’s very good. He is one of the developers of FreeCAD. MangoJelly tends to be my go to though.

        I knew MangoJelly but not this Deltahedra. I’m finding the latter’s video more interesting tbh, and less time-wasting.

          Deltahedra is fast-paced for sure. I enjoy his tutorials also. Another person you can check out is AllVisuals4U. He makes short and to the point tutorials also. He keeps them to 5 to 6-minute videos.

      I just recently discovered him and watching someone who knows what they’re doing use the workflows the right way has been a FreeCAD game changer for me.
