Fusion 360 help please.

Well I wish that I did! I can create a coil no problem, but a flat spiral is a different matter!

It's an option in the coil tool....last on the list IIRC

I have just spent an hour tearing my hair out, trying to get a print. It looks like the latest update has decided to change everything that worked and made it far more complex. To generate an .stl was a few clicks. Now it opens up a dialogue which insists that you select a "machine" of a limited set of options. After reading up, apparently I can add one, so set about adding my K1. Talk about "war and peace"! It looks like Fusion thinks it should be in charge of slicing and everything else now, so explored other option to return the status quo..

I found eventually that the .stl is an "Export" option, right down in the bottom of the file options list.

exporting is how i have always done it... didnt know there was another way ?

Always been two ways as far as I know but I keep going to the wrong place and there are fewer options to choose from including No STL option.

Right click on body, select export mesh...confirm settings hit OK

Not any more. It now opens a "machine" dialogue.

I just tried mine as it would open the slicer last week. Now it doesn't even have support for Bambu. Seriously thinking of dropping it.

Doesn't Bambu have it's own slicer?

Yes and fusion would open it from the manufacturing tab. Not anymore.

Edit, yes it does, they have moved it so it's in a different place!

 

[My Old Landy]

It's under a drop down.

Panic over

Found that but it will not allow OK to be selected as if it wants some other selection...

I don't care tbh

I model in AutoCAD and give my lad the .STL. I've never "sliced" or printed anything in my life.

It demands to know where you are going to use it, so I had to direct it to the slicer. None of its business really, I might want to do anything else with the 'stl.
