Another absolutely perfect video with crystal-clear, perfectly-paced explanation. A-1, as always!

Great Video Kevin as always! Well, even if a person doesn't have a immediate need for this, your video paves the way just in case. In fact, I can imagine whereby a complex object needs to be replicated/modified, and in a business setting, the amount of money that would be saved would literally pay for this whole system several times over in just their first use. Also, I think that videos like this will stir businesses into addressing new service/manufacture offerings and revenue streams. Now complex objects no longer prevent such a barrier. Also Kevin, would like to thank you for your videos. After watching your videos, I've made all kinds of objects/replacement-parts for my friends and family--not a bad retirement pastime!

Great video as usual Kevin. I guess we better focus on adding capabilities around aligning meshes in Fusion 360 next. 😀

[@ProductDesignOnline]

Thanks, Sualp! Yes please!!! Aligning faces would be nice 🙂

Kevin - I love your tutorials! I just took out my revopoint pop (which I got months ago as part of their kickstarter) and this was the perfect tutorial for me. I am equally perplexed how to “drop” the scanned object onto the ground. All the slicer software available for 3d printing hobbyists already does it. Do you have suggested workaround? I want to scan sea shells and then drop them onto a ground plane so I can then 3d carve on them following the contour.

Is there a way of creating a solid based on the shape of a mesh? I've got a 3D scan of a figurine, and I want to create a 3D printable "divot" for it so it can be stored in a box snugly. Effectively it'd be like modeling a thermoformed piece of plastic, matching the back side of the figurine. Can you do this in Fusion? Thanks for your videos!

Good tutorial Kevin...

[@danballarin]

every time there is an update, I check your channel to see if you explain the updates. I find their text explanations aren't as clear as your content. Thanks for what you do!

[@VIPER2151]

This video will help out a great deal thank you But I do have a question When I did a couple of test scan with that exact scanner granted it was atleast a couple of months ago I had an issue where the scan my head the imported into fusion The mesh file went in but the size of the scan was way to big Checking the measurements from chin to top of my head was over 2 metres So if possible could a video be made where an item is scanned then imported and size altered close to the actual size of the scanned item Thanx

[@carbonarne675]

Is there now a tool to place meshes to a surface?

[@MohamedMostafa-tv6cd]

This is great but we need more videos and tutorials for these new features specially fixing the ( large ) mesh files

[@lxdougla831]

Yes that would be great!

[@Dynamo3dmodeling]

How to work on 3d scanned file? On which software? Solidworks or fusion 360?

[@ProductDesignOnline]

You can work with mesh data in both, as well as many other CAD packages. It really depends what you're trying to achieve :)

Hello ! Thanks for your channel. Very useful. I have a task at work. We have a few furniture prototype that our master made by hand . And I need to enter all the part into our cad then cam. 1 sofa is over 50 pieces 😢. I’ve told them that since it’s something time consuming and that will be repeated every month at least we should find a faster way to digitalize handmade prototype. It’s very simple it’s just flat mdf or plywood shape. There is no 3D or 2.5d it’s just 2D cutted shape out of 18mm plank and panels of wood. My only problem is that some part are like 700 by 400mm. It’s not small part. What would you use to scan them? They gave me a budget of 1000ish dollars 😅. I feel once I show them how fast and time saving it is they would be ok to invest 3-5k if it means going from 99 to 100% accuracy. Thanks!!!

There’s something I’ve been struggling with for a while. I want to recreate my wedding ring, which has a hammered texture. I can’t figure out how to get a good hammered texture that looks natural in a circular way.

[@ProductDesignOnline]

That would probably be easier in Blender or Mudbox, where you can apply textures. You could try to reduce the mesh count in Fusion 360 to get somewhat of a hammered look, though it will probably be pointier than desired.

[@Xploit66]

@@ProductDesignOnline I have tried it in blender but I don’t think I have the talent for it haha. I haven’t heard of mud box before though I will look into that. Thank you!

If you speed the video up to 2x speed you sound just like Nile Red

Fusion 360 needs a 3 point orientation feature
