https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRZ-IxZ46ngThoughts on the logo
It's nice. It's crisp and it looks professional. But it's lost the casual, down-to-earth feel the original logo had.
It's as if they wanted to shed the Onshape personality and culture to fill in with something that screams "PTC!"
We get it, PTC, you bought Onshape. But it might pay for you to build on their brand and customer base instead of shedding the first and alienating the second...
It's just a logo, but it's also an erasing of the face of Onshape, and I can't say that I like it...

Re: Improvements to Onshape - December 10th, 2020
Why did they have to go with that drab PTC green for the logo? They could have kept the OnShape blue.

Re: Onshape, we are here for you!
Throwing this out there as a possible middle ground. I am by no means a graphic designer, just wanted to put this out there.
No matter the look going forward, I'll still be using Onshape.

Designing laser cut finger joints by hand is tedious. Here's how to automate it! (tutorial)
It's no fun spending hours manually making tabs for laser cut (or CNC router cut) finger joints, only to have them break when a model parameter changes. Fortunately, with Onshape, we have some awesome FeatureScript-based solutions, so I made a tutorial to demo/show how to use them! I'm using @lemon1324's "Laser joint" and "Auto layout" FeatureScripts. Huge thanks for making such awesome automations!

If you have any questions, feedback, or video/tutorial ideas, please let me know! Also, I'm planning on trying to make Onshape tutorials Monday/Wednesday/Friday. What would be an appropriate frequency/amount to post them to this forum? I really don't want to spam/clog things up/annoy anyone! I'm happy posting none at all, one a week, a "weekly digest," or each one as it comes out, or something else, just let me know.

Re: DO YOU HAVE A NICE MODEL TO SHOW? (DYHANMTS_2018)
I have long way to go yet, but now that i have more hours of onshape under my belt, I'm going for a better attempt at a soyuz. Maybe I can finish it before 2018 is out... 
Sneak peak:
With the sketch overlay, it almost looks like it's textured

Pro tip: How to restore a deleted tab after you have made changes without losing work
Ever accidentally delete a tab only to realize it is gone much later? Simply restoring before the delete will undo a lot of work. To keep your work and get that deleted tab back, you need to cherry-pick that delete action out of history.
https://youtu.be/9fX_mtd4BQk
https://youtu.be/9fX_mtd4BQkAs a recap, cherry-picking is done by:
- Create a version of the change that you want to remove. For deleted tabs, this is creating a version after they are deleted.
- Create a branch from the new version.
- Restore the new branch to the moment right before the version was created (across branches). Now it is as if that moment never happened, and your tab should be in the branch.
- Merge the branch to Main.
