+#instructions here: https://github.com/dcowden/cadquery#installing----using-cadquery-from-inside-freecad
+
+#You run this example by typing the following in the FreeCAD python console, making sure to change
+#the path to this example, and the name of the example appropriately.
+#import sys
+#sys.path.append('/home/user/Downloads/cadquery/examples/FreeCAD')

+
+#You'll need to delete the original shape that was created, and the new shape should be named sequentially (Shape001, etc).
+
+#You can also tie these blocks of code to macros, buttons, and keybindings in FreeCAD for quicker access.
