Ive had more Mesh troubles than any other thing. Its almost like magic. Then I come here and even though its very old and the UI is different I immediately saw the error of my ways by watching you try and delete the faces and not being able to. I had been here too many time to count. Then you said the magic words. "You need to be in the solids menu." All of a sudden the stl I had been fighting for months was in my model with actual faces to align with, lol. Thank you very much.
Great video Lars. When I want to work with STL files I steer clear of Fusion. I turn to another great Autodesk program, Meshmixer! If Meshmixer can't fix a file, I run it through Netfabb.
Valiant effort, Lars! BUT ALAS, as many know, mesh to solid in a 3D solid app is most often impractical, or outright undoable. To F360's credit, I will say that I have found the Mesh Workspace useful on a number of occasions (even w/ hi-poly count STLs). But even here, a proper mesh app is generally advised. For mesh repair, Netfabb is hard to beat (free online version, albeit not as full-featured as the stand-alone, pay version).

Good point. As far as I know, all the mesh functions within Fusion are coming from mesh mixer anyways.

Support should be used for really steep overhangs or long ones to help prevent warping.
Very useful information, thanks Lars!
You are so very welcome
Thanks so much Lars!
anyone else notice the hands are backward? Thumbs should be on the inside not outside
Looking good
Thanks for sharing :-)
You are so very welcome 👍😊
What happened to the "Patch" command? Cannot locate in updated app. Thx.
I the design Workspace, patch has been replaced by surface, found above the icons
@@cadcamstuff Thx
What if your mesh file has an error?
When you are trying to bring it into Fusion? Then you might be in trouble
