Learned the basics behind how to dimension drawings in free-cad. Took half an hour to download and explore dimension drawing workbench. Still need to learn how to change the Title and info in the bottom right table. This is what I have so far.

Sent an email to info@opensourceecology.org to notify them of completed steps.

Learned how to use Vokoscreen to record myself through the webcam on my laptop which was running the OSE live-USB. Recorded the video interview questions and uploaded them to youtube.

This took about an hour and a half to get to work as I had to calibrate it to proper settings to get it to record the sound in sync with the video.
 
In the end I used Window style recording and clicked on the webcam window to record just my image while reading the questions. I left the frame rate at 25, changed the videocodec to mpeg4, avi and the audio format I left at libmp3lame.
 
Sent off an email to ops at ops@opensourceecology.org to let them know I've completed the steps in the list.
 
*'''Update''': Linked to corner_cube_test_video and learned how to upload my freecad file to the wiki.

#Installing Linux: 20 minutes
#Learning Free-cad: 3 hours of trying to get faster and more comfortable.
#Documenting my work: 2 hours learning to organise on the wiki.
 
The hardest part was learning to use Free-cad. Its a tricky program with tons of tools and features.
 
Ill give myself a score of 95%. I'm missing some formatting techniques to make everything here appear clean and concise.

Created live-usb and installed OSE Ubuntu OS to my desktop computer. Used the live CD on my laptop to record the desktop video due to microphone requirements. I'm having a hard time getting the sound to work with clarity on my laptop microphone for the video interview so ill give it a try tomorrow or start looking for old external microphones around the city.
Recorded developer test video. Learned to edit video down to appropriate size and uploaded to youtube. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKEvFgCp2ls&feature=youtu.be OSE_DEV_TEST]
 
Freecad is a lot to learn but now that I can use it a bit more reliably, its not crashing anymore and I am learning ways to speed up my workflow. One of the most useful tricks was the (ctrl) selection of files to mass rotate a bunch of copies. This saved a lot of time and will be a useful technique in the future. Hot-keys and always save!
