FreeCAD CAM Ep. 24 || Making a Threaded lid round box ( custom threads macro) || CAM Workbench

In this episode I'm showing you how I model and generate the G Code for making a wooden round box, with a threaded lid. I had to make a custom macro for generating the G Code for the threads, as FreeCAD doesn't yet fully support custom threading.
