This beginners video goes step-by-step through creating the above prototyping breadboard holder, designed to make it easier when designing electronic circuits to connect them to a bench power supply, or other equipment using 4mm banana plugs. This is where a workbench breadboard can come in handy. These often use 4mm banana plugs for connecting to circuits. During this it's often useful to connect the circuit to a bench power supply and perhaps a multimeter.

When creating electronic circuits it's useful to test circuits using a broadboad.

Beginners Guide to FreeCAD - Creating a Breadboad Stand for an Electronics Workbench It also uses the resolve method to turn a 2D cut-through image and resolve that into a cylndrical shape. It includes different technicques including padding a 2D object into a 3D object, creating pockets within those objects and use external edges for adding constraints between different objects. It goes step by step through the design of a board useful for electronics projects. To help make this easier I've created a beginners guide video which goes step through step on getting started using FreeCAD. This can make it difficult for beginners faced with a steep learning curve to learn the concept before they can put it into practice. It is a 3D parametric modeler, which means that models are designed by adding constraints that determine the relationship between shapes and dimensions. FreeCAD is an open source 3D design program available for Linux and Windows.
