DESCRIPTION:Join us for our monthly Portland Area RoboTics Society (PARTS) 
 meeting! This month features an Introduction to FreeCAD presentation along
  with hands-on time to share projects\, troubleshoot\, and connect.\n\nFea
 ture presentation: Introduction to FreeCAD\n\nAn introduction to FreeCAD\,
  a free and open-source parametric 3D CAD tool. We’ll cover the basics o
 f the interface\, sketching and constraints\, creating simple 3D parts\, a
 nd exporting models for 3D printing\, laser cutting\, or CNC. The focus is
  on practical workflows so you can start designing your own parts by the e
 nd of the session.\n\nWhat to Expect:\n\nProject sharing: 5-10 minute ligh
 tning talks on what you're building\nTroubleshooting: Get help with techni
 cal challenges from experienced members\nNetworking: Connect with Portland
 's robotics community\nOpen discussions: Exchange ideas on the latest in r
