FreeCAD: Create Formers From 3D Scans | #2 - Creating Cross Sections and Export - Aircraft Nose Cone

Video Not Working? Fix It Now

Part two of helping a Patreon with a FreeCAD project when a 3D scanned air craft nose cone has been supplied and or former or "buck" is required. In the previous video, part 1: https://youtu.be/g1-LHszqBfk we prepared and fixed the mesh. In this video we create the cross sections and export to SVG ready for CNC or laser cut. We will use: Mesh workbench to: - Create cross sections by rotating a plane from the part workbench. Part and Part Design Design to: - Extrude cross sections. - Create the baseboard with voids to hold cross sections. - Allow for tolerances with one operation. Draft workbench to: - Edit the cross sections. - Covert cross sections to a sketch. - Flatten them ready for SVG export. Curves workbench to: - Extend the cross sections the fill in the gaps left from the 3D scan #FreeCAD , #CAD , #3DPrinting Journey with me and Patreon https://www.patreon.com/mangojellysolutions Donate: https://ko-fi.com/mang0 https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/darrenbestone Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUWhaOxsRk_5oPPq00_Y7Dw?sub_confirmation=1 Browse my Redbubble Shop: http://MangojellyLabs.redbubble.com Blog: https://mangojellysolutions.blogspot.com/
