<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — Fusion 360]]> https://www.soliforum.com/topic/8329/fusion-360/ Sun, 30 Nov 2014 23:03:31 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Fusion 360]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/73550/#p73550 I got it.  So far I'm quite happy with it.  The cloud thing doesn't bother me but I also havn't fiddled with it enough to see how well it acts offline.  I got it partially for 3D printing and partially for CNC routing/milling.  The CAD + CAM + Tsplines is worth the deal price ($300/yr) to get into the ultimate for life.  Never really worked with Blender but the simplicity and advantages over something like sketchup are tremendous.  The parametric modeling is so easily adjustable that I never have to worry about remaking a model from scratch just because the geometry was unhappy for some reason.

If you purchase now you get a free upgrade to ultimate for life! It looks very promising so far.

I couldn't pass it up! I do a lot of CNC work so its a nice gamble for me.

Here is a good write up. Pass it on!
