A great FreeCAD addon is the Fasteners workbench! Now you can assemble your parts digitally in FreeCAD. By downloading this addon, you automatically have the option to add fasteners to your 3D model in FreeCAD.

When it’s installed, you can choose the Fasteners workbench in the dropdown menu. The buttons will change according to this workbench. Now you can select many types of fasteners to fit into your 3D model.

A great thing about FreeCAD is that you can add many workbenches in addition to the standard ones. If you create your designs in the Part Design workbench for example, you can download and install a Fasteners workbench to manage your screws and bolts for your project!

When in FreeCAD, select the ‘Tools’ tab and click on ‘Addon manager’. If you don’t see all workbenches appear, don’t worry! It seems to be a FreeCAD 0.18 problem. From version 0.19, the problem should be solved.

The video is on the AllVisuals4U YouTube channel. If you want to see more FreeCAD tutorials? I made a lot of them, so if you want to check them out, i would be thankful!

So now you can install all the available workbenches you need for your CAD project. Below, you can watch the video where i demonstrate how to install a workbench in FreeCAD.
