We can learn to make excellent fabrication drawings in FreeCAD from Lulzbot - see an example fabrication drawing and discussion thread with Aleph Objects, the only open source hardware manufacturer in the world that we know of who creates fabrication drawings in FreeCAD:

Hey Marcin

I got your contact info from Jeff Moe regarding freeCAD drawings, we met briefly when you came out to Aleph. I've cc'd Julie Pettit, between the 2 of us we've made pretty much all of the technical drawings in FreeCAD here at AO. We'd definitely like to help you guys out with creating 2D fab drawings, just let us know how you want to go about it. Maybe a screen recording of the whole process as a place to start?

I've attached our custom drawing templates in case you want to make a custom OSE version, you can modify it in inkscape pretty easily to change logos, tolerance blocks, etc.

Cheers -Bam
