      • 零件只改了两毫米，整张图要跟着重画？ FreeCAD 用参数化三维建模保存设计过程，可改历史参数调整模型，也能从带约束的二维草图构建物体，再生成工程图。 适合机械设计和动手做东西。尺寸变了，让模型接着算，少陪鼠标返工；先学会约束和建模逻辑，灵感才能长出靠谱骨架。

      • 想 3D 打印个小零件，最烦的是尺寸量错了又得从头画 FreeCAD 是开源的参数化建模，草图里每条线都带着尺寸，改一个数字，后面挖的槽、倒的角都会跟着重算 左边那一列就是建模的每一步，哪步不对点回去改 Mac、Windows、Linux 都有，9 月刚出 1.1.4。我还没装，GitHub 约 3.5 万星，LGPL-2.1 界面看着有点劝退，先拿它画个手机支架试试（

      • 🛠️ FreeCAD｜把尺寸变成3D零件 ① 约束草图：用尺寸定义形状 ② 参数化历史：改尺寸，重算模型 ③ STEP/STL导出，衔接设计与3D打印 练习：新建草图→画矩形并标尺寸→拉伸→改宽度。 无需编程；先学草图约束，进阶可用Python自动化。LGPL-2.1。 图：官网草图与建模示例

      • 我就想做个手机支架，怎么还没碰到塑料，先碰到订阅了？！ 你说这东西得多复杂：宽一点、矮一点，开个孔，再改改尺寸。 做着做着还想改？太正常了！！ 所以我想把这个免费开源的建模软件推到你面前：FreeCAD！ 它好玩的地方，是你可以把尺寸和关系写进设计里。想改宽度，回去改数字，再看形状怎么变，不用每改一次都从白纸重来！ 小支架、小盒子、外壳、零件，爱折腾实物和3D打印的，你应该懂这里面的快乐。…
