Completion Checklist
The following is a test, to be uploaded on main page once sufficiently completed.
A summary of tasks to be completed for a comprehensive 3D cad model of the Seed Home v2. To be expanded and updated by those performing tasks, both listed and not yet listed here.
An 'x' within brackets indicate a completed task, empty brackets indicate incomplete. Indented tasks indicate sub-tasks.
Current tasks:
[ ] Break down FreeCAD files of assemblies into FreeCAD files of individual parts
[ ] Sub task 1
[ ] Import furniture (includes doors, windows, and fixtures) into FreeCAD files of assemblies
Note: checklist written in markdown format, which is not used by Mediawiki, but hopefully clear enough for human users.
