hello friends welcome to Freka tutorial
0:02
and in this tutorial we will model this
0:04
part from the scratch as you can see
0:07
that uh I have already modeled it and uh
0:10
it is matching with a isometric view of
0:13
our reference drawing we will create
0:16
this part from the
0:18
scratch so let's uh start our
0:21
tutorial for this tutorial I am using
0:24
the frecad version 1.0 so you must have
0:28
at least Fread version 1.0 or higher
0:32
version so let's uh start our
0:35
tutorial i will close this file and
0:38
create a new
0:39
file if you want to learn free CAD from
0:43
the scratch then you can buy my complete
0:46
free CAD course from zero to expert this
0:49
course also available on Udemy but uh
0:52
problem is that uh would me only give me
0:56
the
0:56
37% of a core selling you can see here
1:00
user had paid $15 but I have only got $5
1:07
so after minus of taxes I get the
1:11
pennies on each course selling
1:15
if you wanted to see the review of my
1:17
course you can go to the Udemy and s
1:21
search for the free CAD and you will see
1:24
my course complete free CAD course from
1:26
zero to expert and this course is took
1:29
by the more than 2,000 students and I
1:33
have got the rating of a
1:36
4.1 for the demo lectures you can expand
1:40
it and uh see the demo lectures and the
1:44
course structure but I will request you
1:47
if you found my course interesting and
1:51
the reviews of the other student on
1:54
Udemy then I would request you to buy my
1:59
course from the my coffee shops because
2:04
if you buy from here it will help me a
2:06
lot
2:08
so once you buy my course you will be
2:11
redirected to the Google drive and here
2:14
is the my course complete free course
2:17
from zero to expert go inside and uh the
2:22
sections I have shown you on my Kofi
2:27
shop page so exactly same lectures under
2:31
the section is created for example
2:35
section one is a introductions to free
2:38
1.0 and what is new in a freecad 1.0 so
2:42
if you go to the section one so there
2:45
are the 18 lectures and if you go inside
2:49
of this sections one you will find the
2:52
18 lecture total and once you go to the
2:55
lecture one you will find a video file
2:59
which you can download to your system
3:02
and uh you can watch it and this course
3:06
is updated on a equal interval of a time
3:09
once the new feature receives came and
3:12
uh once you purchase the course you have
3:15
the lifetime access to the course and in
3:19
the case of any doubt any query you can
3:22
mail me at admin
3:25
rate.com at the end you will find one uh
3:29

4:08
your small course purchase will uh help
4:12
me to grow this channel and it will also
4:15
motivate me to create more awesome
4:18
content on free cat
4:21
so please check out my course on uh free
4:25
CAD from uh 02
4:28
expert and now we will come back to our
4:33
tutorial here I have created a new file
4:37
and uh I will uh create my body and uh
4:41
let's uh start our uh first
4:44
page so first on the origin plane and uh
4:49
select this front plane which is exit
4:52
plane and uh click on the sketch and now
4:56
let's uh of the origin plane and uh if
5:00
we read our part so this is the circular
5:05
profile so we will uh create our revolve
5:09
profile so first we will create this
5:11
profile and revolve it to the
5:16
360° so let's first select the polyline
5:20
tool and start creating our sketch
5:23
so I will uh create a rough profile and
5:27
uh
5:28
then we will constrain
5:46
it so if you see the section view so
5:49
this is the approximate profile and now
5:52
first thing we will do we will add a
5:55
relevant relation so first make this
5:59
vertical and uh this one
6:03
horizontal this one
6:06
vertical and now first we will start
6:09
constraining the outer profile so select
6:13
the smart dimension and we will select
6:15
this end point and uh provide the
6:19
dimension so this is the radius of 100
6:22
mm because of our diameter is of 200
6:26
which we can see here and
6:30
now let's uh provide the further
6:35
dimension this point is of
6:43
42 and uh now let's move it
6:50
And let's select this point and this
6:52
point and provide a horizontal
6:57
dimension which is of
7:01
36 and uh let's constrain this
7:06
point horizontal dimension of
7:11
25 and
7:14
now constrain this one select it and uh
7:19
provide it a 4
7:20
mm and
7:24
now let's constrain this
7:27
point so this is of a
7:32
25.5 select smart dimension
7:39
25.5
7:41
and then move
7:45
it and and
7:47
let's provide the total
7:50
height select smart dimension select
7:54
this point to this point which is of
8:02
39
8:04
and this is of
8:07
100 let's define this
8:13
height which is of 11
8:16
mm and now let's constrain this point
8:21
so to constrain this point we will
8:23
select this point and our origin point
8:27
and add a horizontal
8:29
dimension
8:31
of
8:34
52 and now let's move this
8:39
point and
8:43
let's constrain this point select a
8:49
dimension select this one and this one
8:53
and this is of a
8:57
42.5 and
8:59
now let's move
9:03
it so here if you see here is a chamfer
9:09
is
9:11
given we can create this chamfer later
9:14
also
9:17
let's provide this uh angle of the
9:21
chamfer which is of a
9:26
30 and now let's uh constrain this
9:31
height select a smart dimension select
9:33
it this point and this point and the
9:38
height is of
9:46
30 and we will also constrain this point
9:51
select this point and this and uh
9:54
provide a vertical dimension of
9:59
23 so our uh profile is fully
10:02
constrained let's uh move the dimension
10:06
to the outside so that you can see the
10:10
dimension very
10:15
clear now move it move
10:24
it so this is the revolve profile and
10:28
now we will revolve it around our axis
10:32
so let's uh exit the
10:35
sketch press zero for isometric
10:39
and let's select the sketch and click on
10:41
the
10:42
revolve so we wanted to revolve around
10:45
the Z axis so we can see that revolution
10:48
is created say
10:52
okay now we will create a next feature
10:56
with respect to our isometric drawing so
10:59
now we will create this pad which we can
11:03
see in top view this four pad so select
11:06
the face and uh click on the sketch
11:09
press
11:10
zero switch to the top view and now here
11:14
we will uh read the dimension so if we
11:17
can see here the PCD is of 130
11:21
select a circle tool and uh we will
11:24
create a
11:25
circle and uh give it a
11:29
130 and uh select it and uh make it
11:34
construction and now here we will also
11:38
project this diameter click on the
11:40
project and uh project it and let's
11:43
switch to the
11:45
wireframe and
11:47
now we can see here the radius R14 is
11:50
given so here we will
11:53
first create
11:55
a circle or threepoint arc so let's
11:58
create a threepoint arc and uh
12:02
this center of arc will be on our
12:06
construction circle so make it a
12:09
coincidence and at the same times
12:12
provide this radius of
12:16
R14 and
12:19
now we will
12:23
uh give the angular constraint so this
12:26
is at the
12:27
center of this 90° so this line is of a
12:31
40° so first thing we will do is to
12:37
create a
12:39
line and make it a
12:43
construction and let's select a smart
12:47
dimension and uh
12:49
provide the angle of
12:52
45 and
12:54
now make this point and this point as
12:59
a coincidence one so here is a
13:02
conflict so we will press Ctrl
13:06
Z and we
13:08
will delete it and let's move it now I
13:13
will select this and this and add a
13:16
coincidence
13:18
relation and
13:21
now we will also create a threepoint arc
13:24
select a threepoint arc and create arc
13:27
on the
13:29
construction and select this and this
13:32
and made it equal and now we will create
13:36
two line by joining these two points on
13:38
both the sides so select a line tool
13:41
select this and
13:44
this this
13:47
and this now select this line and this
13:51
line and add a parallel relation
13:54
similarly select this line and this line
13:56
add a parallel relation and now we will
13:59
add a
14:01
tangency to this and
14:04
this so now this is the our uh first
14:08
profile and our sketch is completely
14:14
close and let's come out of the
14:17
sketch now here I will uh switch to
14:23
the flat lines now select the sketch
14:27
click on the
14:29
pad and
14:31
uh give
14:33
the pad distance 24 mm say
14:39
okay and
14:42
now we will uh polar pattern it so
14:46
select the pad and click on the polar
14:49
pattern and here we will uh provide the
14:52
quantity
14:54
four say okay so you can see that uh
14:58
this polar pattern is created now switch
15:00
to the isometric and set this top
15:04
view now here we will uh project this
15:08
four arc and uh create our circle so
15:12
let's select the face and click on the
15:15
sketch click on the project
15:17
geometry and we will uh project this
15:20
four
15:21
radius and we will create a four
15:25
holes so select the circle tool and
15:29
create a four
15:36
circle and now select a smart
15:40
dimension and uh
15:42
let's see the four holes which are D 12
15:46
distance through
15:48
all so provide it at 12 say okay and now
15:54
select control key and select all four
15:58
circles and uh make it equal and say
16:01
close now select the sketch and now
16:04
select the whole wizard
16:08
and here we want uh diameter 12 so
16:11
provide 12 and we can see that four
16:15
holes which are through wall so simply
16:17
give the through walls and say okay so
16:20
here uh you can do one
16:22
thing in this pad you can create a hole
16:26
and you can polar pattern this pad and
16:29
hold at the same times so no issue you
16:32
can also follow the different approach
16:35
which you are comfortable and
16:38
now if you see the top view there is a
16:41
cut so now we will create this cut so
16:43
select the top plane and click on the
16:46
sketch and
16:48
uh let's uh set our model to the right
16:52
orientation and now click on the top
16:54
view and now here we will find out this
16:57
PCD first
17:01
so this is the PCD of a
17:05
160 so let's create the
17:10
circle and select it and make it
17:13
construction and select smart
17:16
dimension provide the 160 and
17:20
uh we will
17:24
create threepoint arc select it and uh
17:28
create a threepoint
17:30
arc now select this and this and uh add
17:34
a
17:37
coincidence and
17:40
now select this and this and add a
17:44
coincidence now let's move
17:47
it and we will also project this outer
17:50
diameter select it and uh project it and
17:54
select a threepoint arc and create one
17:59
arc and now select this our newly
18:02
created arc this outer diameter and add
18:05
a tangency now we will create a line
18:09
which will be the vertical so select a
18:12
line
18:14
tool create a line this side and on the
18:18
other
18:20
side now select it and make it uh
18:24
vertical select it and make it vertical
18:28
and now select this and this
18:32
tangent select this and this and add a
18:35
tangent and now let's select a smart
18:38
dimension and provide the radius of 8 mm
18:43
say
18:44
okay click on
18:46
close and now select the sketch and
18:49
click on the
18:51
pocket and uh say it through all and say
18:56
okay and now we will uh do the same
18:59
procedure to polar pattern it to the
19:03
four quantity which we can see here now
19:06
select it click on the polar
19:09
pattern and here fread automatically
19:12
took this Z axis we have to just define
19:15
the
19:16
quantity so we have created the for
19:21
cut now we will move to the next
19:25
feature which is to create the cut if
19:29
you see here there are the two
19:31
rectangular profile which we can see
19:34
which are the cut so here we can see
19:37
the a note two rectangular holes through
19:41
walls which means that
19:43
uh this is the rectangular cut which is
19:46
the through wall and we can see the
19:48
hidden lines and in isometric view we
19:52
can also see it there are the two cuts
19:54
which are the through wall on the other
19:56
side
19:57
now for this we will uh simply press our
20:01
model to
20:02
the isometric view and we will on the
20:05
origin plane and now if you see the
20:08
orientation so this
20:10
is the cut which will be come on this
20:13
exit plane so select the exit plane and
20:16
click on the sketch and for the better
20:19
sketching I will off the origin plane
20:22
and from here I will switch to the
20:24
wireframe view so that I can draw it so
20:28
first thing is to select a rectangle
20:31
tool and create a rectangle and now
20:34
let's provide a
20:36
dimensions select a smart dimension
20:38
provide it 16
20:42
and uh this is of 6
20:48
mm and uh position from the origin is of
20:53
4
20:57
mm and
20:59
now position from the
21:03
bottom so if you see here the position
21:06
from the bottom is of a 12
21:09
mm which we can see so from here to here
21:14
is of a 12 mm so this is the fully
21:19
constrained sketch and uh let's come out
21:22
of this sketch and create a cut and now
21:27
select a model and uh
21:30
select the sketch and click on the
21:33
pocket
21:34
tool and
21:36
here we will make it a through
21:39
wall and we will make it symmetric to
21:42
the plane so you can see that
21:46
uh back side and front side is a cut is
21:49
created which is the our requirement as
21:53
per the our drawing now this cut which
21:57
we are seeing in a hidden line we will
21:59
simply mirror this cut on the other side
22:02
press
22:04
zero and select this cut and click on
22:07
the mirror
22:10
options and from here select reference
22:14
and select this YZ plane and click on
22:21
okay so if you see our uh reference
22:25
drawing isometric view our reference
22:27
drawing isometric view is completely
22:30
matching with uh our freet part so we
22:34
have successfully converted this uh 2D
22:38
drawing into the 3D model now let's uh
22:40
provide a color like our reference model
22:45
to provide a color select a body and uh
22:47
go to the appearances and in appearances
22:50
we will provide first a black color so
22:54
go to the diffuse color and uh we can
22:57
also adjust the color by dragging this
23:00
uh small
23:01
triangle
23:03
so let's give the approximate color with
23:06
respect to our reference and click on
23:10
okay and click on
23:12
close now we wanted to give the
23:15
individual faces different color so for
23:18
this we will switch to the part
23:20
workbench and here is the options so I
23:24
will uh select the these two
23:28
faces but first select a single phase
23:31
and on this and then we will add the
23:35
multiple faces by pressing the control
23:38
key and here this uh bore is of a
23:41
different
23:42
color so select the
23:45
faces
23:49
and go to the custom appearances go to
23:52
the diffuse color and now here we will
23:56
uh provide a white color simply select
23:59
white and say okay and say
24:02
close and we will
24:05
also make it okay so you can see that uh
24:08
we have successfully modeled this part
24:11
from the scratch with the help of part
24:14
design
24:16
workbench this is all about this
