Or it might be easier if you just delete the "bridge" at the bottom of the (assumedly) hollow model where the helmet turns from outside to inside. Once that area is deleted, you have separated the inner and outer shells so they are no longer connected. Then select a small area on the inside shell, and hit "e" to expand the selection then "delete" to remove it. Then just use the select tool to double click on the blue edge that is remaining and hit "f" to fill it.

Sure! Usually, if other walls are being affected, you need to turn off the "Volumetric" checkbox in the sculpting tool you are using.

@@HoneyPoint3D I'm having the same issue, even after shutting off volumetric on the magnetic brush

@@TheTrueMac I would also try a couple of things. One is to use a smaller diameter brush. Since this attract to target tool is not in the surface tool (only in the volume tool) you have to be careful that the brush does not "turn the corner" and affect areas that you are wanting to be affected. Disabling volumetric will stop disconnected areas that are touched by the brush from being changed, but if the entire surface of the virtual brush is touching an area the entire area will be changed. The other way to ensure that areas are not touched is to select them and assign a facegroup to them. Then in the attract workflow described above, under the "filters" menu in the sculpting tool, select "restrict to group"....even going one step further and enabling "fixed boundary" can be done . Then other groups you have will be kept pretty much intact.

Great info, thank you! No worries about it being late, good info is good info, thank you!

Thanks very much!

You should be able to disable "volumetric" in the sculpt tool to prevent the sculpt brush from affecting the other side of the thin body.

When you exit the Form environment, Fusion will either let you exit (successful solid model creation) or it will throw an error, where you have to not exit the Form environment, fix the error, then try and exit once again.

We're happy to help!

Yes indeed! The Edit --> Make Pattern command will do that.

@@nickkloski3877 thanks for the tip. It's not that easy, but it works.

@@DerTheoretiker Creating infill in your slicer is a better option...in some slicers you can even hollow then export the infill as its own 3d model.

Sure....if you select something and hit "e" that will expand the selection to everything that is connected to that selection. If you hit the "i" key, that will invert the selection....meaning that everything that was selected will not be, and everything that was not selected will be. If you are talking about selecting everything inside of the circle you just drew on the model there is no way to directly do that. The only way I would do that (without selecting the inner part of the circle by hand) would be to draw the circle, "create facegroup", then double click on the inner part of the circle, and create a facegroup there, then doubleclick on both facegroups and create facegroup again, making one large facegroup.

@@HoneyPoint3D thank you very much for your answer. I'm sure it will work well your proposal. I hadn't thought about working with face groups. When i will arrive at home, i will try and i will anser if it will woeks well. I'm out on holidays, sorry. You are very generous for take your time on my and your knowledge. Thank you very much.

I have already came back from my little holidays and I have already tried the solution that you proposed to work with facegrups. Congratulations. It has worked perfectly for me. Tell you that at the begining the object was a surface that I transformed into a solid. Working with facegroups works perfectly for me when the object is still a surface. When it is a solid, no. But nothing happens. I am happy with the solution you proposed. Thank you very much from the heart. Thank you

You can generate a DXF in Fusion from a sketch. You can export a Sketch as a DXF once you have the sketch created in Fusion by right clicking on the sketch and selecting that export option.

@@HoneyPoint3D perfect, thank you!

Just wait! The upcoming July 2021 update to fusion 360 will have tremendously improved mesh handling capabilities. I am not allowed to say more about it at this time, but they have a huge reverse engineering mesh update on the imminent horizon.

Try repairing your object "Body 1" by using Form -> Utilities -> Repair Body and select Auto Repair. Hope that helps.

I use blender and you can do it with boolean modifiers. You can also print it directly with PEEK and implant the model directly.

Thanks!

When you insert it into Fusion360 you can scale it to be whatever size you desire. If you need to fit a specific size, you can always sketch out a box with the correct size, and then when you import the SVG you can scale the imported SVG to that box you have already created.

Thanks!

Thanks for asking! We had this Kickstarter in 2015, but have updated the class since then as new features have come out. The class can be seen at www.honeypoint3d.com/edcuation

Hi. Not able to buy your meshmixer course online. Plz help.

@@reconplasticsurgeryHubli meshmixer is no longer supported by Autodesk which is the reason this guy is no longer offering the class

not easily, no.....the larger quads would need to gradually decrease in size in all directions, I have not seen SW automatically do that. You can always edit the mesh and collapse some areas in Blender, but that is very manual.

Thanks!

A trick: you can watch movies at flixzone. Been using it for watching lots of of movies lately.

@Alessandro Coleman Definitely, I have been watching on Flixzone for since november myself =)

@Alessandro Coleman yea, I've been watching on Flixzone for since november myself :D

Fusion 360 (currently) is free for personal use, and free for commercial use if your company makes under $100K per year. If your company makes over that amount then it is something like $25/month.

Probably a few ways: see if 2.4GHz wireless would reach your workshop (since it has a farther reach), run an ethernet cable, use a powerline networking setup that turns your electrical wires into data carrying lines, or if your printer has an SD port you can just walk the files over to the printer. If you're really wanting to solve that problem, and money is not an issue, you can set up a cell phone hotspot and put your printers on the internet that way, and then contact them through the Internet.
