Contined efforts... I now believe it may be software. https://youtu.be/Sns8IbmzpNA

Continued efforts to get a grasp on FreeCAD for the dev test. Lots of videos, and instructions from https://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/Manual:Introduction
I can't seem to manipulate the objects. https://youtu.be/T0pPbO2HZb4

I have the whole day to try to get the CAD test done today.
I have watched all the videos I can find on using FreeCAD and also all of the Developer Tests in .25 speed and I'm not getting it at all. I am stuck at manipulating the parts.
Contacted Marcin about being stuck. He noticed I was working with Stl files. Changed that and tried again. Still stuck.
I made it fine in Blender, but cannot manipulate parts in Assembly2 on FreeCAD.
