Fusion 360 for 3D Printing - Creating Curved Bodies

What You Will Learn!

Apply skills necessary to design custom curved geometry in their models
Apply useful skills in preparing models for 3D printing
Apply post processing techniques to their 3D prints for a finished look

Description

In this course we cover some useful methods for creating curved bodies. We learn how to reference a sphere in order to create a curved extrusion. We briefly jump into the Patch environment and learn how to make a custom surface from two spline curves. We also cover how to add curved text to your model. Apply these methods while modeling a beautiful fully ready to 3D print Wonder Woman Tiara.

The second part of the course we will review our model and look at what design changes we need to make in order to optimize it for 3D printing.

By the end of the course students will have learned the skills necessary to design custom curved geometry in their models. Students will also have learned useful skills in preparing their prints for 3D printing.
