FreeCAD

It's Friday! Do let us know what you are up to with FreeCAD!

@FreeCAD endlessly deleting redundant constraints... ;)

@plainoldcheese @FreeCAD sketcher makes them but i have to delete. maybe there is a new setting in 1.0 i haven't found. haven't extensively looked yet.

@waltbaldwin @plainoldcheese @FreeCAD Yes, there's a setting. No, it's not a new 1.0 feature. 😉

@FreeCAD worked on a test jig for re programming some PCBs in the field.
1.0 is really great!
I found myself using it on accident. I was using OnShape but loading PCBs into it took too long so I was using FC to preview and do some rough measurements. But ended up doing the whole jig, 3d print, and laser cutting dxfs in FC. I couldn't figure out the assembly workbench though so no animations, but the draft work bench's move too is a life saver. I wish it was in the part workbench tho.
