A quiet Sunday night CAD/CAM session, and I have the drawings and toolpaths complete for my Radar Control Panel.  Renderings from Fusion 360 look pretty cool, and let me fine-tune my design.  Way better, and surprisingly quicker than the old-fashioned 2D CAD I used to use! Including the Knobs in the design means I can check clearance of the knobs and engraved lettering.

 

Fusion has a really nice render feature, which lets me produce these nice looking images, for no better reason than they look cool 🙂

 

The biggest change from my old design work-flow is that Fusion 360 has CAM built-in, so you step between modelling and CAM in the same application, really streamlining the complete design process!
