FreeCAD Mirror Tutorial in Part Design Workbench

 Part is created by mirror command. Firstly half of part is created on part design and 2D sketch, then mirror command is used to reflect other half. We can use mirrored to create symmetric drawings as a short way.

Technical drawing is below that used in video tutorial.

Part Design Mirrored command creates a new object (image) which is a reflection of the original object (source). The image object is created behind a mirror plane. The mirror plane may be standard plane (XY, YZ, or XZ), or any plane parallel to a standard plane.

 If you want, you can change planes or direction according to technical drawing or your preference. To use it, just follow simple steps below.

1. Select the object from the Mirroring Panel list.
2. Select a standard Mirror plane from the dropdown menu.
3. Press OK to create mirrored object.
