Spring 2021 Workshop Details:

Fusion 360: Advanced Techniques • Led by Adam Hutz
Topics: Advanced techniques, workflows, and workspaces using Fusion 360 (and other software packages!)
Time: TBD

Fusion is most often used for solid modeling, but did you know you can also use it for sheet bending? Rendering portfolio-grade product shots? Parametric sculpting? PCB layout and design? Generative design? Using CAM paths to generate 3D-printable textures? In this workshop we’ll explore some more advanced features in Fusion 360. This workshop will be run in a flexible format, meaning that each week’s material will be in part dictated by that week’s participating members. Not sure where to get started with a high-level design challenge? Bring it to workshop!
