This right here is why I still use FreeCAD.

Most of my actual design work is done in the spreadsheet workbench. If I had to, I could design furniture in LibreOffice Calc. But, I use the entire drafting process as a sanity check, to make sure I didn't make any mistakes in order of operations.

    Which in fairness... Is exactly what I did at first.

    I even did the explored the diagrams.

    What I didn't do.... Was modify them after there was several changes in scope. Let's hope I use this is a learning experience. The next time just say right back to the design stage.

    Just imagine I used the spreadsheet inside Freecad. I could have even defined clearances and tolerances. But we live in learn
