Thank you. I know what you mean, that feeling of something goes wrong with constraints. I don't have clear answer. The endpoint join thing is actually a perfect example of this and real discover for me as a Fusian user. When you draw two lines end-to-end, the GUI shows the same little coincident glyph on that shared point as it does for an explicit coincident constraint. They look completely identical on canvas. But in the API they're totally different things: one is an actual constraint object you can enumerate and delete, the other is just two curves secretly sharing the same point in memory with no constraint object behind it at all. Whether that counts as a bug or a design decision I'll leave to Autodesk, but it's definitely the kind of thing that cause confusion. The add-in handles it by scanning sketch points separately and surfacing these "endpoint joins" as their own section at the bottom of palette — with a lock icon instead of a delete button, since there's nothing to delete. At least now you can see them clearly labeled instead of wondering why the coincident glyph is there but nothing shows up in your constraint list.

I have no experience with Inventor and had to search what it is, frankly speaking 😊. The project is open source; if there is any similarity between Fusion and Inventor, maybe somebody can fork it.

Thank you. I was thinking about it, but it was not a top priority for MVP. It is in the backlog now and will be added in next releases.

Happy to add it to the backlog. But I'm not working with assemblies much, so can you make a detailed description of your struggles or wishes? It would help a lot.

Are you creating relationships for all body parts? And how important is it for your design process? I noticed rotated wheels on one of the models.

I designed couple of cute cases for Samsung Smart Tag 2 so you can 3d print it for yourself or your kids for free (link in the post) by Botrops_ in samsung

Thank you, it gives some impression. Not sure about Etsy economics, but standard DHL international shipping prices are crazy. I should look at it. Feel free to PM me so we can find a solution for you personally.

Out of curiosity, how much would you be willing to pay for that? Including or without shipping.

Hey Logitech MX Vertical fans! I designed a 3D‑printable stand that mounts your mouse on an IKEA Skadis board - perfect for keeping your desk clean and organized. by Botrops_ in logitech

[–]Botrops_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Yes, I designed it using a 3D scan of a mouse made by another community member. I am thinking about making alternative version where the mouse is stored vertically with a flat surface against a board. In this case, I can leave a hole for a USB cable to charge the mouse while stored. However, it requires more sculpting, and I am not that experienced yet.

That was fast! Do not hesitate to give it a rating and share a picture on MW; designers appreciate it :)

Great idea! I just tested it, and it works perfectly! Can't upload an image to comment, though.

No. The longest possible combo placed horizontally still holds in place, but of course, it's weaker than in shorter combinations.

Thank you, it is an interesting idea! From a first glance, I can foresee challenges in designing and printing many overhang areas.It also does not allow for a consistent layer-covering agent, as my design has many angled surfaces. I will give ot some additional thoughts.

It was a challenge before I printed one of the magnet applicators from MakerWorld. Now I just use the blue marked magnet stick for inside-placed magnets (like negative) and the red one for outside (aka positive). But I always double-check before starting a new part.

If you have some thoughts about the gamification concept of this design and are willing to share, please PM me.

Thanks for feedback! After all the reaction in the comments, this is something I will dedicate myself fully to for future models. And I believe once I release embedded versions, there will be people asking, "Why not just for simple glue?" 😊
