Onshape Tutorials!

1

I have been watching this channel on YouTube called Teaching Tech and found his videos on using Onshape very helpful.

He has a playlist for Onshape called 3D design for 3D printing tutorials.

I love onshape - I thought I was the only one! I was thinking about teaching a class on it next year, just a simple “get started” kinda like I do in inkscape. I like a class that gives you just enough to know what to google next. there are SO many onshape tutorials, and it’s so fast and easy to use, I’m glad it’s catching on at makeict!

I also like OnShape. Most of the stuff I am making now is started in OnShape. It does not have an NC component though… so if you are super interested in that, you should consider Fusion 360. (Or be willing to learn two separate CAD systems… which is OK for me… but not for everyone.)

Oh! I haven’t used the shop bot in years - so you’re saying my Onshape designs might by fun for 3D printing but it’s no good for people wanting to use mills, tormach, shopbot etc?

I also feel fine learning multiple CAD systems, they all have a little overlap. My Fusion 360 classes here at MakeICT were my foundation and then Onshape was easy because the differences weren’t that crazy.

Learn to sketch and extrude.

I think you can use them… but you will still have to learn one with NC in them for that… and many may want to limit how many CAD systems they learn. (Not a problem for me though :))
