The creation of lofts, sweeps and helical sweeps are more powerful modeling functions within the brilliant #FOSS FreeCAD.
We will show you how to create a loft using very simple shapes. How to sweep a shape along a path and how to loft that sweep along a path. We will also demonstrate the helical sweep that is great for creating spirals of all kinds.
