 This week we are focused on exploring different design tools including the following:

 **Conclusion** - compared to CorelDraw (that I use a good amount) I find Cuttle to be simple to use with
  some very good functionality. For 2D work focused on laser cutting

 ## FreeCAD
 
+I had done a good amount of tutorials in Fusion360 in Fab Academy prep weeks and 
+so I was very excited to try FreeCad
+
+[Install](https://www.freecad.org/downloads.php)
+
+It is a big file to download and install 
+
+Ran through the tutorials

+Now opened a new design and getting ready for my first sketch

+
+Now I am moving on to part workspace with a tutorial where we will make the 
+following:

+First fully constrained sketch as base shape 
+

+
+Step by step we went through sketching, padding (extruding), pocketing (cutting), filleting

+**Conclusion:** - I like free cad a lot! I find the left side model navigation a lot easier 
+to navigate vs. the timeline in fusion 360. I am going to try and make the base plate for 
+my Vegtable Washing Machine in both and see how the process compares!

+The total dimension for the VWM is 35 cm wide, 45 cm deep, and 35 cm high
