FreeCAD: Off-Grid Carriage House with Masonry stove

I like the idea of a large masonry heater in the center of the home. The stove is designed with concrete blocks, the flat slabs might have to be cast with steel wire mesh inside.
The model is made almost entirely with PartDesign WB. Only the rafters, stairs and deck have the structural design. It's far easier to model walls and floors as one part, but keeping the dimensions they would be constructed as. Structural design can be done when and if drawings are required.
The stove model is boolean fused and cut and chimney paths painted red. Clipping plane is good but doesn't display the cut face. But the boolean is it's own model and can be colored and turned on and off for clarity.

If you liked the video hit the thumbs ups.

Thanks for watching.
