New user looking for ongoing Crash coarse/ or personal paid support buddy (3D printing)
I have lots of Autocad/Microsation experiences but I'm new with onshape and parametrics in general. Would like to learn for the purpose of 3D printing Mechanical and mostly functional parts. Don't need to learn assemblies necessarily. That's not for business purpose. I've spent about 8 hours learning so far but I'm still struggling. I really wish there was some kind of crash course I could take to learn quickly with a teacher with a specific issues I have.
I have 4 questions to start, but I will only with these two.
1. is there an online course I could take for the basics but not all the stuff I don't need. I would be willing to pay someone To be able Call them 3 times a week maybe 15 minutes each time, to clarify a few quick things. Looking for a buddy sort of speak, that I can call in the evenings for example. Not on demand, can text to ask when is good for them to talk.
2. Often get sketch errors (red) and can't figure out why. I know I can ask questions on this form but if I could find Several videos to give me practice in this area
50% of the issues are just learning the concept of perimetric Constraints.
thanks

Hello Abe
Send me a DM with your contact info etcetera and we can talk. Email is important since I'd set up a zoom meeting.

glen did you clear that with Evan? Lol. Likewise I can spare a few minutes every now again to help if you can’t find anyone. Also happy to answer dms or emails as needed.
I think just about everybody knows who Evan is already. His name was the first one I came across.
Ok will connect with you when am ready. I find it's much quicker to talk through video, screen share or phone and explain then typing out questions.
thanks
Thanks, do either one of you do any 3D printing by chance?
I forgot to mention. Are you aware of the learning website?
