> the new integrated Assembly workbench (and solver) though I've not dabbled with this myself

FreeCad badly needed this. I will try it out.

Any complex drawing quickly go out of hand without assemblies.

Also, finaly there seem to be some real measurement ulitity! 'Std Measure'.

I've gone made trying to build some parts I made in FreeCad without a sane way to measure distances.

I so want FreeCad to kick some entrenched corp ass.
