Dear autocorrect: I will NEVER use "ducking" in a sentence.
Full of ideas, but slow to produce parts

I have been using Fusion 360 for a few months and while the 3D modelling is very good the CAM is even better. I have been building a helicopter simulator and all the parts were modelled in Fusion. Here are a couple shots of the main panel.

I can see a major problem with this CAD business- once I get proficient in CAD, I am never going to be able to produce a part that looks as good as the drawing.

You and me both, Pete! That's why I stick with hand sketches, the finished product ALWAYS looks magnitudes better!!

It can be tough to live up to the renders for sure, I think every part on this panel was made at least twice! Keeps the bar high though?

Has anyone reading got experience of using a 4th axis with fusion?
Looking at a few forums it seems that that bit of the code isn't finished yet. Indexing is I think done, but not continuous rotation machining, but t is under development. It was the 4th axis issue that got me looking around as its a limitation in my rather old version of FeatureCAM. So I hope that they do sort it ?
