I have uploaded a 5 part basic Heekscad tutorial series to Youtube,
and 1 video of a project being done in HeeksCAD. Does this seem
useful?

I am at work so can't post the links to the videos, but here is a link
to my blog post which has links to the videos.

Where can I find all the addons? I would love to do a series about
them also.

I have only watched the first two videos, yet, but I will watch them all
sometime. I like them. Thanks for adding them.

The main add-ons are HeekCNC ( for open source milling ) and
HeeksPython, for adding a python console to HeeksCAD.
I use HeeksCNC to write CNC simple programs for my little milling machine.
HeeksCNC uses various other python projects to create toolpath,
including http://code.google.com/p/opencamlib/

HeeksPython doesn't do many functions yet, but it could be extended by a
C++ programmer.

Dan.
