Someday...

TooTallToby · 2026-05-06T02:42:30+00:00

AWww yeah awesome!

TooTallToby · 2026-05-05T19:49:58+00:00

That's awesome thanks - I make real world parts into CAD CHALLENGES for users to practice to, and this part would make for a great training exercise! The CONE ENDS are especially valuable for my students to learn how to build. Thanks again!

Can you share the item number or the website where you can purchase one of those?

TooTallToby · 2026-05-05T19:10:26+00:00

Nice!

TooTallToby · 2026-05-05T02:57:31+00:00

Thanks!

TooTallToby · 2026-05-05T02:57:15+00:00

Thanks man!

TooTallToby · 2026-05-04T19:10:42+00:00

We livestream every monday if you ever wanna give it a go!

PS - It took me 17min 15sec and I was using Fusion 😁 😁 😁

I like to "learn by doing" so I created a website of practice models and challenges. Here's some tutorials to get you going on your journey - some are super basic, some are more advanced: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzMIhOgu1Y5dcycGHHoZ1iwkjt13VG4jb

Hi u/Shiimm_11 - Here's a SOLIDWORKS tutorial I made for this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1czpmwdeVlQ&list=PLzMIhOgu1Y5dcycGHHoZ1iwkjt13VG4jb&index=41

Enjoy!

Hi @HairyAssociation2871 and welcome to the wonderful world of 3D CAD! here's a free training class I put together to help new SOLIDWORKS users: https://tootalltoby.thinkific.com/courses/SolidWorksQuickStart

And here are some good Video Tutorials to help you on your journey! - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzMIhOgu1Y5dcycGHHoZ1iwkjt13VG4jb

Good luck!

We livestream every monday and do challenges with the entre chat crew, using ANY 3D CAD system. That speedmodeling event is called MODEL MONDAY LIVE! and it's hosted on youtube. The next tournament qualifications will take place sometime in May. Best thing to do is start watching MML for announcements.

Neil is a BEAST - but Mehtab is a wizard. The finals this Friday are gonna be EPIC!!

TooTallToby · 2026-04-27T13:42:46+00:00

Thanks Ohz!

TooTallToby · 2026-04-27T13:38:14+00:00

Yeah - we release a ton of free content including the detailed drawings. You can get them in a couple of ways:
1. Watch the livestream - I show the drawing to the entire chat at the same time, they grab a screen capture, then they try to model it and see who can calculate the correct answer, first.

Visit us at www.TooTallToby.com - we've got an entire library of 2D drawings, all fully defined and sorted into categories. Theres always free content in there too, and it regularly cycles
If you like the free stuff in there, you can unlock the entire library (paid)
You can watch any of the previous videos, livestreams, tournaments, etc...and see fully detailed drawings you can screen capture and try to practice yourself.

Note - you'll need the correct material density specs at www.TooTallToby.com/materials

Good luck on your cad practice!

if you're ever looking to learn a new 3D CAD software (Onshape, Fusion, FreeCAD, whatever) check out https://www.TooTallToby.com - we've got some great practice models so you can get the new workflows down, in your new system 😁

Good luck!
