Intro
These are proposed summary video scripts of 2 minute Extreme Learning FreeCAD instructionals. The specific script needs to be developed. You can parse accepted Video Tutorials to refactor them into Best Tutorials - [1]. This is not a complete list, so more searching is useful.
Sketcher
Draw constrained geometry: length, parallel, perpendicular, angle, round corner, offset, line offset. Up to extruding a part.
Assembly
Boolean operations. Draw an assembly of items. Snap to edge, point, line. Align. With any number of parts.
Drawing Dimensioning
Draw pointers to circle radius, lengths offset correctly.
FEA
Do basic stress analysis on single parts. Analizing a bolted frame assembly.
Exploded Part Animations
Exploded part diagrams and animations example.
CAM
Generate a toolpath from a 3D model. See reference - [2] and [3]. From [4].
Reverse Engineering
How best to reverse engineer anything. Start from STL or STEP, and replace with parametric part definitions.
File Manipulation
Importing, exporting, converting in order to use any file from anywhere.
FreeCAD Development
Kernel. Program. Builds. Repos. Workbenches. Libraries. Wrappers. Running scripts. Python. Macros. Command Line programming of FreeCAD.
Libraries
How to not have to draw anything. Screws. Parts. Repositories such as McMaster Carr, Misumi. Maufacturer's CAD.
