    Tray

    During the Xmas holiday I made this serving tray, made of several different kinds of wood. It was made with a bandsaw, a router and lots of sanding 😄.
    The F360 design file is attached as well.

    Ball clamp

    Here's is one component of a larger project, it is a ball clamp for the end of a threaded rod, with hardware incorporated directly from McMaster-Carr. All components of the project will be printed on my Ender 3 Pro with NylonX, a carbon fiber infused nylon filament.

    Tool bag AA and AAA battery storage.

    I keep a number of test meters in my "electrical"  tool bag, all of which use AA or AAA batteries. I don't like leaving them in the meters because I forget (I'm at that age!) and they eventually leak. You can't keep them in a tin (thought about that - bad idea) so what to do?
    How about this?
    
    Safely holds 6 x AAA and 7 x AA (or 6 x AA and a screwdriver)...

    I had an old "Chinese" Phillips head screwdriver knocking about which I broke up, printed a new handle for, and made a screwdriver the size of an AA battery - now I've always got a small screwdriver to change the batteries when I need it...

    Hello Everyone.  I am located in the United States. I am very new to Fusion 360 and plan to use it for my woodworking hobby.  I haven't played around with Fusion 360 enough to know what my biggest challenge would be other than not knowing much about it.  I would love to connect with others in the woodworking industry professionally or hobbyist and get better at using Fusion 360.

    Hi from the frozen north

    I'm Steve. Retired Electrician/Power engineer/Operator. I've been learning learning Fusion for about a year. I use Fusion for 3d printing, woodwork, and soon CNC. Most of all I struggle with getting sketches fully constrained and with a brain that just doesn't work like it used to!

    First Fusion 360 Project - Crudcatcher Mudguard Clamp

    A friend asked me if I could create him a replacement clamp for his bicycle mudguard, that would allow it to be mounted on a larger diameter post. At the time I didn't know enough to, that's how I found Kevin's videos. After a couple of iterations this is what I created.

    Pucket

    Over the holiday break I started a new woodworking project with my father for my kids. It's a game of pucket made of a plywood base and mahogany sides. I started by modelling it in Fusion 360 like I usually do to give me some idea of how it will look like and allow me to play with dimensions before making any cuts.

    Feel free to use the project if you like it and modify it to your needs: https://a360.co/2LoO4t3

    No more picking up bottle caps from the floor…

    Here is my second Fusion 360 project. I have a bottle opener attached to my workbench, but never had anything to catch the caps. Version 1 was a bit large, bottles fouled on the top edge, and took a bit longer/used a bit more filament than I would've liked.
    
    For Version 2 I tightened up the cutout for the opener. Took some of the back away to save filament and time, and reduced the size/height of the 'pocket' to make it a bit smaller and facilitate proper movement of the bottle.
