  • I wish it were that easy. I’m probably north of 10x faster designing in Solidworks compared to freecad, ignoring drawings. Obviously that will chance in time and practice, but right now I can’t really do something that people expect to be billed ~50 hours of design and it takes 250, that ends things pretty quickly. There also isn’t a lot of down time on the job to tinker and learn, so that’s done on my free time. And I’m in the position to choose what we use to design, not everyone is.



















  • I use it on my work laptop and recently put it on my Mom’s computer (basically a browser machine anyway) as well. So far so good on both. The only thing my mom doesn’t like is that the file explorer is called dolphin, she said it’s confusing. I plan on using a menu editor to change the name, then all is well.
