Which CAD/CAM to learn 3D design and use 3D printer and CNC mill
awemawson:
We had thousands of them under contract years back. When they failed it was usually a build up of cheese sandwiches, human hair, and coffee spills :bugeye:
Not sure who dared try it first, but we found that opening them up and putting them in a domestic dish washer sorted at least 75% of faults :ddb: It was however essential to take them out BEFORE the dry cycle, and allow them to dry out naturally otherwise the plastic bits distorted.
The key tops came out immaculately :lol:

Nver used 3D program before and it shows...I'm on absolute beginner tutorial #3 and got stuck on middel of it.
=608
There are gour locating ribs on the lid....his version is a little diferent on tutorial than I have and some stuff comes out a little difrerently...but today I gost stupped. Made extra plane for sketch drafiting, made the sketch - on wrong plane, probably on origo insted of the offsetted plane and when I tried to assign the sketch onto this auxiliary plane, fusion crashed.
Gave up for tonight....ast hinkking of making an extrusion offset from the box innards, instead of four different ribby things.
Anyways, should make actually something usefull, but I want to follow tutorials first least until I'll get into constraints.

Is there an obivous way to make an PCD on fusion?
Say D100mm four holes symmetrically.
i can combine circle and inttersect with a square, but 5 holes or something unusual would take a bit more effort.

Create a 'pattern' round a circular feature

Google says this for PCD: Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). I'm curious why you would want to model one :dremel:
A circular pattern just needs the geometry to pattern and an axis. The geometry can be in a sketch or a 3d model which can be a body, face, or component. It's preferable for performance issues to pattern 3d models instead of sketches. For example, it's better to sketch one tooth on a gear, extrude it, then do the circular pattern. (Plain spur gears can be made with an add-in script.)
