I got just PDF without geometry data. Creating drawings in online Flowcharts Maker (draw.io) is much simpler that in Onshape.

Hey @alex_vestas

Use the learning center tutorials but this should get you started:

Why would you bother? It would literally take you 5 minutes to redraw it in Onshape.

Agree. I started drawing a rectangle, but stopped due to uncertainty which tools to use for further processing.

Then I suggest you start here: https://learn.onshape.com/learn/course/fundamentals-sketching/starting-a-sketch/starting-a-sketch

jnewth_onshape I tried create an external thread in the hole 5,1mm: 1/4–20–UNC–2A

I selected the "Hole" tool, then "tapped hole" feature: but theer is Error in Part Studio left vertical menu.

What's unclear: for which part and how to apply this feature? I selected "Top" view, then right click on the hole 5.1mm, but its something wrong. Also I want the hole with thread also to be shown on the drawing side view too. How to achieve this?
