I’m going to check it out again. It sounds more than decent for most things. Do you have any tutorials you learned from. The “learn fusion 360 in 30 days” is what I used to learn fusion
Not any that I found useful sadly :D, FreeCAD is mostly used by Engineers, so finding a coherent easy to understand tutorial isn’t easy. I got the gyst with trial and error and watching people use FreeCAD.
3 Lessions which makes FreeCAD flow make sense.
In Part Design a Sketch Lives within a Body, so you create Body then Sketch
The Sketches white lines needs to be complete, with no gaps. If you need to add structure (like adding a circle to a box), you can do so with construction geometry (blue lines)
When a line turns green (or construction turns light blue, it’s constrained. Meaning it won’t move.
For me this was what allowed me to understand how to use FreeCAD well enough to replace Fusion. Everything from what I’ve used thus far, is based on this hierarchy and order of operation.
Not sure about sculpting, but in terms of sketching I find it good but flawed.
Getting to grips with sketching and how you need to complete shapes, and using support lines is a learning curve.
However I find it quite rewarding and worth the time to learn.

Thank you that helps
