Some Notes on CAD

Hello!

Here are some notes that might prove useful:

  • I’m using OnShape, an online CAD software. I’ve got a free student account (which I think means 10 private “documents”), but there are also other free accounts available (no “private” documents–only public ones).
  • The OnShape document of my current CAD can be found here.
    • To see dimensions, please right-click the “sketch” from the sidebar and choose “show dimensions”. The units are in inches–but please note that some of these are incorrect; refer to this post for notes on upcoming/needed changes.
  • Often, people have already created CAD files you need. One of my go-to’s to search for such things is a website called Thingiverse. (This is where I found the Ultrasonic sensor holders).

This is all I can think of for now, but I’ll update as needed.

Have a good day!
