Freecad +1

WAIT !

I think each person has to recognize that there is a time/energy cost to get out of enshittification hell, and then decide how much they're willing to pay. If the answer for you is at least "an afternoon of video tutorials", then Freecad will be fine for you. It's a complicated tool that you need some help learning; that's ok. It won't become your new hobby.

If you don't want to pay that cost, that's understandable. If you feel mad that there is a cost at all, that's ok too. That's how enshittification works, and it sucks. As I said, each person will have to decide whether and how much they're willing to pay to get out of it.

Anyway, the MangoJelly tutorials in YouTube are really excellent, and will have you up and running in a few hours at most. (My CAD needs are also very basic, and I was done after the first two parts, 30 min each.) For following along, I would recommend just using the main version, so that it matches his tutorial exactly, and do the steps as he shows you. It feels dumb, but it's such a fast way to learn. You can decide later if you want to switch to one of the other branches, depending on what features you care about or what annoys you most.

Here's one of his later videos about tracing from a photo, but I haven't watched it:

You can do it!

I had the same realization. I spent 3-4 hours fiddling with different settings, with no impact, and then 1 hour drying did the trick!!

Same, but we knew it was going to be about tortillas didn't we.

Wow, same here. Upvote just for explaining how to turn that dang grid off!!

I had an aneurysm looking at this picture until I saw the post title and channel name.

Also, there are lots of KB stls out there. OP printed this one, and thought it was good enough to share (and I agree). So, it's useful to know which particular one they used. And, if it's not their stl, then linking is a way of giving credit to the stl author too. One more point: any issues or adjustments they made, for that particular stl, are useful to know (like they posted below, finally).

I see the OP did update with the stl below. But I wanted to post here to say it's just good manners to add a reference for the specific stl of a print that was good enough to share.

It's hot AF!

I think some others here are missing the point of the question. Right now people are arguing about the fosstodon mods policy that all posts there must be in English. People are coming at it from every angle you can imagine, and maybe some you can't. It's amazing! Here on Lemmy we had our own little drama with behaw (de)federation a while ago. (How did that play out? I didn't pay close attention.)

I think OP is asking how to convey that drama of fedi culture. Not (necessarily) the technical aspects.

Wow, I want this! But I don't have any googly eyes. If only there was a way I could make some.....

"I committed them to memory... I forgot." I think about this every time I forget something, which is a lot.

Let me introduce you to your personal savior, cast iron.
