In this Fusion 360 tutorial, I'll show you how to design custom 3D printed holders for your favorite tools!
During the design process, we’ll cover a variety of useful tools including canvases, offsetting sketches, extrude, construction planes, splitting and joining bodies, projecting sketches, user parameters, creating a tolerance with press pull (offset face), creating mounting holes and exporting to a slicer!
