Ship hull create in OpenSCAD using a bezier surface patch. The red dots are the 16 control points of the surface enabling the user to change the design relatively easy. Rendering is very fast due to the use of polyhedron.

I finally installed FreeCAD on my daily driver which currently has an old Intel Celeron G1610 as processor and 4Gb of ram. Surprisingly it runs pretty fluid.

Spiral shape with variable diameter in height. Created in OpenSCAD using a sinusoid function and the polyhedron command. This mimics the loft function in FreeCAD.

Using polybeziers in OpenSCAD to create this heart shape earring for my wife. I will print it later on my Biqu B1 (I still haven't fixed my beloved Hephestos 😟 ).

Remember, kids. Constraints are your friend. Minimize the number of dimensions you have to edit. Your future self will thank you.

Playing around with sinusoids in OpenSCAD to create a vase. To find the best parameters to have a printable vase that looks visually appealing is entertaining.

Some experimentation with Solvespace to create a curved object with fillets while in NURBS 'mode'.

Inspiration from @app4soft

The best way to get more people using @FreeCAD is to help people find the right tools to achieve their goals. We're all guilty of jumping to the more complex tools when there might be a simpler way. Pay it forward by showing someone if you have the knowledge and ability.
