Comment on Stepping up from Tinkercad but to what?

I tried Onshape and now switched to ondsel which is freecad but with a different user interface.
I’ve had success with it. I find onshape to be a little easier to work with, but I find owning my files more important.

Seems like they have closed down in 2024?

My understanding is many of their changes were merged back into Freecad for the 1.0 release.

The 1.0 interface is a night & day improvement on the previous UI, so I’d say that was a good call.

Didn’t follow that, thx for the info! I’ll look to use freecad instead.

I recommend installing the open light and open dark theme for a better user experience in FreeCAD. Everything seems a bit clear and easier to use, YMMV
