CAD test debrief SCORE 85%
How many hours each part of the test took to complete: 1) Installing Linux ~5 minutes I had used virtual box to load the OSE linux image. This was a very familiar task for me I do often on the job.
2) Learning FreeCAD (Most Difficult) 8 hours - I had issues finding the "planer constraints". when I tried to rotate a part, I was locked in the x,y axis and did not know why; took some searching to find. - Otherwise, I found freecad accomplished many tasks differently than AutoCAD or Sketchup, with which I am most familiar. The use of separate 2d "sketches" and embedding them to faces was similar to certain aspects of AutoDesk.
3) Documenting your work - 2 hours
I have used wiki's from time to time. Took a bit to re-learn the "red Text" concept that a new page is made as a link from a prior page. All content is linked.

Kdenlive dosn't allow speeding a video beyond 2000%. My capture was 30 minutes log, so I'm left with around a minute video. Either I find some creative way to speed up further, cut, or I need to redo the test with a "time limit"
Attached is the video I have so far, which is a minute or so long instead of the required 30 seconds.
Viewing the video, it also did not render properly. Checking this file I made from memory, I appear to of made some errors on the part layout. I'll redo the cube and shoot to do it in under 20 mins.

-Created this log entry and completed recording of the CAD test. This time, I was able to get vokoscreen to behave and successfully stored the video! now to learn how to edit it to the 30 second version and add the music track.
-Here is the YouTube Video of my full speed CAD test

-Here is the file for the CAD test
