Description

This course provides a very comprehensive, yet concise, introduction to Computer Aided Design (CAD) through FreeCAD.With a project-centric approach, the course allows you to delve directly into creating objects without having to learn what each individual tool or feature in FreeCAD is. This way you can learn by making, not just watching. As we progress through the course, you will find the difficulty of modeling objects and the complexity of components increase, thereby helping you to apply whatever skills you learn.This course covers Modelling Parts in FreeCAD, but the skills can be extended to 3D Design, Drafting, Assembly, etc. Moreover, you will learn to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools to augment your expertise throughout the course. From debugging with AI to asking it how to design parts, you will be leveraging the power of modern technology tools in modeling projects with CAD.Therefore, this course is suggested to anyone interested in learning Computer Aided Design, or FreeCAD especially, regardless of what their learning outcome is. After completing this course, you will have achieved significant proficiency in FreeCAD, which will allow you to create whatever object you want with CAD and AI.Thank you for your interest, and I hope to have you on board.
