🚀 Master Surfacing in FreeCAD !
In this video, I'll show you how to model a bike saddle using FreeCAD, leveraging advanced surfacing tools. The goal is to demonstrate that you can achieve complex and fully parametric designs without using destructive operations.
📌 What you'll learn:
✅ Using the Curves Workbench to create smooth surfaces
✅ Precise and parametric modeling for a flexible design
✅ Tips to improve workflow and enhance surface quality
