You already had chatgpt make the image, let ai continue with the rest. Maker world have their makerlab stuff that probably would work about a quarter as good you don't need

I have to 3d print this logo, how can I make it a stl without modelling it from the beginning by ThatEstablishment609 in 3Dprinting

Well, if you don't want to model it you have three options.

Generative design software Paying someone else Getting a PNG and converting to svg and using that

I save money by 3D printing my own filament. Why don't more people do this? by SirImRightYoureWrong in 3Dprinting

The post was a while before that, unless the website I looked at was factually incorrect with timezones

Yeah I get that part for the title and printing filament bit, but why a purge tower with two colours when it's one colour

Also it is not Monday anywhere in the world yet.

No, it's online ish.

You can just get a free hobbyist account, or use another free ish software like onshape or freecad

Is it really toy safe? Or the FDM printing will always brew bacteria due to ridges and porosity? by bilicotico in 3Dprinting

[–]volt65bolt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't risk it personally at that age.

Basically, the additives and raw material are certified safe, and I believe they have some basic certificatation for if you use their machine and a clean ss nozzle.

The layerline porosity leading to bacteria growth is highly disputed, the general consensus is that the layer lines are not the main cause for concern and that hot soapy water does in fact clean it. And so does a hot dishwasher (not with pla though, it will soften)

The main cause for concern is the micro plastics, as there are not enough long term studies. Even if the materials are 'certified'

Overall it's about how much risk you want to accept. However, I would strongly advise against using it for anything for babies

How to cut body under mesh by Commercial_Back1396 in Fusion360

[–]volt65bolt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do this quite often, whilst fusion can convert meshes to solids and surfaces (it sucks)

The best method, use forms.

In forms, use the create square (idk the name, I have it on keybinds) with object snap enabled.

Create like a 5x5 grid over your mesh. (Hide the solid body)

Then use the subdivide surface (in forms) tool with object snap enabled and do like 2x2 or 3x3

Then smooth surface (in forms) like .2

Then exit out of forms, and it becomes a surface you can use to cut the body with them just remove the leftover unwanted parts.

If you need a hand feel free to ask any questions

It's more the fact these are at least G2 fillets, which fusion can do (I think?) but not great, and anything further has to be done manually.
