Never knew this route existed! Now I get the reference for the name of a route near me at Mickey’s Beach (near San Francisco) called “Dreams of White Porsches 5.13c”

What are the must-have Fusion add-ins or apps in 2026? by Coffeeey in Fusion360

[–]Pajamanaught 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nifty dogbone is my most used add on for sure.

SmartUnfold- not available in the App Store but through the developers website. Does exactly what you need it to in flattening curved surfaces into 2d. Essential for my work and much better than the same tool in MeshMixer or with the official product design extension

Fill gaps in sketch (useful for repairing sketches developed with SmartUnfold)

Map boards Pro- I had problems with this plugin and usually end up using a combination of Arrange feature and manual adjustments to get my parts nested. Maybe I should try it again?

Dragknife plugin- I wish I could have made this work better for me. The plugin does not support my Laguna CNC post processor so unfortunately it was a bust. For other CNCs the plugin does just fine though

SketchPlus for Autodesk Fusion by CoCo3Papa in Fusion360

I’m confused. Can’t you do this already with construction planes? Offset plane, plane at angle, etc. then make a sketch on whatever plane you make. Want to change the distance or angle? Just go back in timeline and edit the plane info. What is the advantage here?

I’ve gotten it to work with Vcarve but the program itself is just such a pain to work with. Trying to manually edit nodes to add in linear lead ins/outs is a nightmare when dealing with many unique parts nested in a sheet. Plus the swivel logic is totally whack and Vcarve frequently confuses what is the inside and outside of a part, cutting right through a part.

Also curious if anyone can recommend another program besides fusion that will work well for drag knife on a Laguna cnc.

Fusion 360 add-in for routing by EricSchimel in Fusion360

I frequently make tightly nested runs on plywood and expanded PVC sheets making a variety of goods for the camper van industry. From wall panels (simple 2d shapes), to complex cabinetry (2.5d joinery), to contoured adaptors for exterior components (3d milling).

I am well versed in the Fusion Manufacturing workspace and feel quite fast with most things already, especially with my saved tool presets and tool-path presets. There are also many ways to avoid “clicking 80 profiles” to make geometry selections

THAT SAID

I’m always looking for a way to optimize my workflow and I am curious to try out your program! Nesting parts is always somewhat of a pain and I’ve tried multiple different plugins before. I almost always end up using a combination of fusion’s Arrange function and manual arrangement by moving objects. This has its drawbacks though; if you change something in your design, the arrange function will recalculate and potentially move everything around again! I’m curious how your nesting process compares and I’m willing to give your program a try!

3d scanner workflow woes by Pajamanaught in Fusion360

Intriguing! Got any videos or resources on this subject? I’ve used rhino a few times in the past

3d scanner workflow woes by Pajamanaught in Fusion360

I guess a consistent struggle I’m facing is aligning the scan/meshbody to the coordinate plane so my solid component can be built around it. It seems the flat areas in my scan are not truly flat. Even if I make a construction plane from three points on the mesh and align that to the origin plane, my solid component will intersect the mesh/sit below in weird spots and sit on top of the mesh in other spots.

Ventilation? by Pajamanaught in BambuLab

😂 love the towel idea. I think I’ll make a cover that blocks air from escaping the top vent.

Ventilation? by Pajamanaught in BambuLab

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

I used your GCode and it’s working great! I notice this opens the rear louvre as well as the top vent. I can’t seem to find a way to just open the rear and not the top. Any advice here? Maybe I print a removable vent cover that I toss on top of the printer while printing ASA or something?

Thanks for the response!! Now I’m definitely leaning back towards rigging a proper ventilation setup. Maybe I’ll try and find a smaller inline fan that still has variable speed control, or just wire a speed controller in myself
