It’s a good idea to get into the habit of saving the file before you do any work.Ĭlick the save icon in the upper left-hand corner. To get started, we’ll first want to save our design file. You’ll learn how to save your file, how to create 2-dimensional sketches, how to extrude your sketch into a 3-dimensional object and how to add fillets or rounded edges. Hey there, it’s Kevin Kennedy and today I’m going to show how to create this simple 3D Printable book rest in Fusion 360. I printed a few out on a Monoprice Maker Select (Amazon) with the following print settings in Cura: Ready to print out your one-hand book holder? Creating one-part mold or two-part molds for casting parts in small batches.Checking the internal volume of a model before printing an object.Snap-fit joints to create a 3D printed box or container.Text on curved objects such as cups or mugs.Adding knurling to parts before 3D Printing them.Splitting models into smaller pieces to fit on your 3D Printer’s build plate.
Here are a few other common use cases of Fusion 360 for 3D printing: Before printing the object, you can reduce or increase the number of facets (mesh triangles), fill holes, or edit other features. File from Thingiverse can be imported, manipulated, fixed, and customized. This removes the tedious nature of saving the file to your desktop only to re-import the file back into the slicing software minutes later.įusion 360 even allows you to edit mesh or STL data that is brought in from a 3D scanner or another source. Many slicing programs (such as Cura) can also sync up with Fusion 360, allowing you to export directly to the program. You can then make modifications, such as customizing the object with your name, before you re-export the object for printing.įusion 360 can also export as both OBJ and STL file formats that are read by just about every 3D printing software. This means you can import STL, OBJ, STEP, and other common file types. One great benefit of Fusion 360 is its ability to import a wide number of file types.
You can use Fusion 360 to create brackets, gears, model trains, woodworking projects, toys, characters, props, and so much more.
It allows you to create both parametric solids and organic “t-spline” bodies. Fusion 360 is the perfect CAD program if you’re looking to create unique models for your 3D printer.
