CNC with FreeCAD: CAD + CAM workflow

In this video, we make this simple dice game in FreeCAD, run the CAM part and cut it on the CNC machine. I recently got a new CNC – a more detailed article on the machine will follow soon.I this article I will machine this simple dice game on the CNC and go step by step through the necessary operations in FreeCAD.

I had to watch this presentation once and then play it back at one quarter speed to be able to follow your mouse clicks. I look forward to videos where you also say what you are clicking on so we can follow along at normal speed. This is an excellent presentation. Thank you very much for it!

Great video! Appreciate the quick info on the spreadsheet module too, I had been meaning to figure out how that worked :)

Thank you very much for this! It almost seems like there is so much one needs to know in order to even get a CNC machine working on a project - the learning curve seems (at least from first glance) to be overwhelming. I use Freecad to create 3D printed projects. And creating an STL file only takes two very simple steps.

New to CNCing, what object do you select to export on the model list? I am assuming you click on the jobs drop down box to export?

Very timely topic to a new owner. But would you please explain what you are doing rather than what you are thinking? Because the reason we watch tutorials is to learn how to do it ourselves. I'm an experienced CNC programmer but new to FreeCAD, and though I understand the principles I still can't discern your clicks and hotkeys. To a newbe, it's more like a promotional advertisement than a training video.

hi, nice video, I have a question, what kind of spindle is it because looks like ATC but small tools looks small could you help me with that TY!

0:03 wait, what is that dice game called?? any page for its rules etc? It seems interesting!
8:08 > _"lemme quickly explain simple rules"_ nice, but still what's the name??

[samlenlap]

Can you please make series for cnc router in freecad

0:59 > _"radius of the corners"_
how did _you_ measure that?

1 die 2 dice. It's an irregular pluralization that even a lot of native English speakers get wrong.
