I would like to say that your work is impressive and encourages all, who are interested in doing work in FOSS applications like Blender. Not a professional I'm just beginning to teach myself Blender as well as your grand Freecad. Not a professional, these tools bring to mind that ideas need to be put into a drawing and Blender, Freecad (though young) as well as other software are great tools for even me. These have also pushed me to begin learning Python now that I know there is good reason to use it.

In my days as a CAD designer in AutoCAD Autolisp made conversion of architectural drawings to engineering standards quick and accurate. It's clear I hardly scratched the surface.

My first project, a terribly simple one is the design of a tool for plumbers. A machinist friend will produce one from drawings generated. I needed one for my current job as a building maintenance man and the manufacturer does not even make one, so I will.

Thanks again.
