CAD Challenges App

Hey educators! You may have seen this post yesterday about our new CAD Challenges app. I just wanted to highlight the app specifically for this community. We hope it will be usefull as a fun way for students to practice their modeling skills. What @ian_d_gardiner calls "CAD calisthenics." Specifically, the app challenges you to carefully read drawings, understand section and auxilary views, and interpret dimensions. These are important skills on the Certified Onshape Associate exam. We hope you find it useful!

It'd be great if the units matched the user's preferences - over in the UK and the rest of Europe we are metric.
Also, it would be good to be able to reverse engineer the design of the reference part - it comes in as a derived part without features to roll-back through.

I’ve used the CAD Challenges app, and it’s a great way to practice reading drawings and understanding views. It’s fun and super helpful for exam prep!
Awesome, thanks for the feedback!
The CAD Challenges app has been an invaluable tool in my studies. It made learning how to read technical drawings and understand different views both fun and interactive. The app’s challenges closely mimic real exam scenarios, making it the perfect preparation tool. Thanks to its engaging format, I improved my skills significantly and saw a huge boost in my exam scores. I highly recommend it to anyone aiming for high grades in technical subjects!
