Hello, thanks so much for this workbench! I installed FreeCAD because I wanted to try modeling a project for the first time. I was so happy to see this workbench available.

I wanted to make a note that the install instructions don't mention needing to clone the repo to the Mod directory (in my case on Manjaro, located in /home/$user/.local/share/FreeCAD. At least in my case I had to do this before the workbench could be loaded.

I'm very excited to start learning FreeCAD so thanks a lot for your videos too!

Cheers, George

Thank you for the kind words. The installation process is described at: https://github.com/dprojects/Woodworking#installation

There is sentence: "If there is no Mod folder, create it." Let me know if this is it.

Thanks, I just misread it. I thought the direction "to get location of Mod folder, run ...." meant that returned the Mod folder -- not its parent directory.
