Re: Why can't we fill in Variables into dimension fields, while drawing a sketch?
@robert_scott_robert_scott_jr_ That kind of 'workaround' isn't what I'd call a professional approach. Yes, I've done it this way, too.
But I think, Onshape should change this glitch.
Re: Badges-Maxxing on the onshape forums
Here are some you should be able to get in one day if your really going for it.
If you do get 5 in one day, you will get another one called Combo breaker. You already have your first comment, so you have less than 24 hours to get the rest of these if you are going to obtain the legendary combo breaker.

A few projects I made for home. I'll update the thread periodically. Most of these are specific to products I have, so may not be useful to others…
Organizer for the bathroom hair stuff, plus a shelf for a heater.

Insulin holder for my dad. He's 90 and can't see the text on the needles anymore.
These purple and pink ones are for a 10 year old family friend who's mother saw my dad's and wanted for her. I reworked the design to work with the insulin brand she has, and the colors/text she wanted.

Desiccant bead holder for filament containers. I found a similar one online but it didn't have the cutout for the gauge or tabs to lift the lid off. It was in 3mf format so I couldn't do anything with it except spin it around on my screen. I modeled this one from scratch, making most of the features similar to what I found online. It prints right side up without any support, including the cutout for the gauge. Here is the Amazon link for the gauge: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09TY4CS35/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=AFMRW02PTHTEX&psc=1

Re: Home projects show and tell
My car was designed in the 90's, when the cupholders were super bad. Many people with this car buy something aftermarket. This is my take on it.
