Introduction to the FreeCAD TechDraw Workbench

This tutorial shows how to use the FreeCADTechDraw Workbench in furniture design. The TechDraw Workbench allows you to create technical drawing, or plans, of your parts.

We demonstrate the functionality of the workbench by creating three drawings using a single part which represents a drawer side.

In this tutorial you will learn how to:

  • Create a simple plan for the part;
  • Dimension the part;
  • Update the title block;
  • Create a plan with multiple views of the same part;
  • Create a plan with detailed views of a portion of the part;
