I'm getting your new videos on Mastodon now! Maybe it didn't work with the other videos because they were already published when you added the #FreeCAD tag. Thanks! And I can even comment from Mastodon directly to your Peertube video.

#FreeCAD BIM development news - January 2019- Yorik's blog https://yorik.uncreated.net/guestblog.php?2019=9

Read over the #FreeCAD forum, from two days ago (HT: kkremitzki):

FreeCAD 0.18~pre1 has just hit the #Debian NEW queue: https://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html

This ensures that FreeCAD 0.18 will be in Debian 10 even if the 0.18 release happens after the Debian 10 release.

Although I hope we do not have to wait this long for 0.18 to be released!

I am working on implementing #IFC support in #FreeCAD! Here is a demo for IFC4Add2 product and attribute support:

If you are an architect and can code, please join me improving #opensource #BIM!

A bit more about @FreeCAD - one possible deck layout of our hybrid powered workboat, elCAT-0. Done in @FreeCAD, A2plus workbench:

I'm starting a series of videos about the excellent TechDraw workbench. Here's episode number 1 covering the basics

I've written an article about how to view #IFC #BIM files on #Linux, starting with tools with #FreeCAD but also talking about other IFC libraries.

If you work in the AEC industry, please support IFC development. The industry is stuck with proprietary tools developed by monopolies, and needs more #opensource and international standards.

Two small but nice additions to #FreeCAD source code over the past weekend: 1) new dimetric and trimetric views; accordingly the existing "Axonometric" view was renamed isometric, because that's what it was. All three view modes are grouped under the View --> Standard views --> Axonometric menu
2) Setting the default view orientation for new document (Preferences/Display). I've always felt that default top view (XY) is not logical for a 3D program...

@FreeCAD became "professional" package. Structure of our hybrid powered workoboat, elCAT-0 is done in FreeCAD:
