FREE Onshape CAD skills - drawing a cafetiere with a spout
In this step-by-step tutorial, you'll draw all parts of a cafetiere including the main body and spout, base, handle, and lid. You will learn how to assemble all the parts together (and animate the lid) while developing essential 3D CAD techniques used in engineering and product design. This project is ideal for:
✅ Engineering students
✅ Product design students
✅ Beginners learning Onshape
✅ Anyone wanting to improve their CAD modelling skills
By the end of the project, you'll have a fully modelled cafetiere and a range of transferable CAD skills that can be applied to more advanced engineering projects.
Topics covered:
• 2D sketching and constraints
• Surface lofting
• Surface modelling between curves
• Projected curves
• Creating a spout (move boundary and mutual trim)
