3D design in FreeCAD (User:Uglyhack)
FreeCAD is a free software for making 3D technical designs, for instance for 3d printing. In this workshop I will walk the participants through a simple design. This will both be an introduction to 3d design and to the specific requirements of designs for 3d printing.

Ideally you would have a laptop with FreeCAD 1.0 installed already
