# Small parametric greenhouse

Small greenhouse with four shelves, three of them removable, and a window on the roof that can be built using very basic tools and sized to fit into almost any space.

The full assembly is in draws/Main.FCStd. It also contains the spreadsheet used to define the sizes.

## Prerequisites

- [FreeCAD][freecadweb]. Version 0.19 works, but other version could work as well.

- FreeCAD's Assembly2+ addon. v0.4.53 at the moment of writing this document. It can be installed from inside FreeCAD using the Addon Manager.

## Configuration

In order to tweak the size of the greenhouse, follow the below steps:

1. Clone the project: `git clone https://github.com/malcp/small-greenhouse.git`

2. Open the main file with FreeCAD: `draws/Main.FCStd`

3. Open the parameters spreadsheet. It is called `params`. ![Parameters pic](/images/params.png)

5. Set the desired sizes and save the document.

6. Go back to `draws/Main.FCStd` and click to `Update parts imported into the assembly` and then `Update imports recursively`.

7. Finally, update the parts lists.

## Cut lists

https://www.opticutter.com/linear-cut-list-calculator and https://www.opticutter.com/cut-list-optimizer have been used to calculate the amount of wood and plastic boards required for building the greenhouse.
