In my learning about CNC machining, I have chosen FreeCAD as my primary CAD & CAM tool. I wanted to do Threadmilling on my Desktop CNC machine, but could not find much info online about it in FreeCAD. So I got to work figuring it out. FreeCAD has not fully implemented this as a feature. There are some FreeCAD issues and quirks, but you can work around that and this video shows you how.
