Lucas Prokopiak is a colleague of mine in the Office of the CTO and wrote a great post on using Autodesk Fusion 360 to re-create and go beyond some public SolidWorks 3D model challenges. Lucas used Autodesk Fusion 360 which he is still fresh at using and documented his experience at all stages of the process from the modeling to the simulation and machining of the actual physical parts. It is a really good exercise to get better at using our 3D design product and identify where we can always improve but also realize the strengths of Fusion 360.
