Hello everyone.

timeandprice

I am a high school teacher. I teach Architectural Drafting. My students are between the ages of 15 and 18. I instruct my students in the use of LibreCad, FreeCad, Autocad, and sometimes Autodesk Inventor and SweetHome3D (but not very much).
I am not a very sophisticated user of CAD programs, and I would like to become so. I would like to learn Blender and FreeCad Arch. I have only really used FreeCad for mechanical types of things, using the Part Design workbench. I'm looking for resources for quickly learning FreeCad Arch and Blender. Thank you!

There is a lot of resources, e.g.-

• The classic tutorial - https://wiki.freecad.org/Arch_tutorial/en

• Arch Workbench wiki - https://wiki.freecad.org/Arch_Workbench
  and

• Manual:BIM modeling wiki (the example model is simpler) - https://wiki.freecad.org/Manual:BIM_modeling

• The BIM WorkBehch wiki ('extension' of Arch) - https://wiki.freecad.org/BIM_Workbench
  and
  FreeCAD Discussion sub-forum dedicated for the Arch / BIM / Draft development

• https://forum.freecad.org/viewforum.php?f=23&sid=cd8178b96bf5c5c14a0fdc34f3b8d6db

Good luck :)
