Counterbore Bridging

This is an addin for Autodesk Fusion360 that provides easy optimization of counterbores for FDM 3d printing.

Installation

  1. Clone this repository to %appdata%\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\API\AddIns (for me, the specific path is C:\Users\Finn\AppData\Roaming\Autodesk\Autodesk Fusion 360\API\AddIns and Mac: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Autodesk/Autodesk\ Fusion\ 360/API).
    Make sure, the folder is named CounterboreBridging (i.e. if you downloaded the repo as .zip).

  2. Restart Fusion.

  3. The addin will show up in Design Workspace - Solid Tab - Modify Group next to the Move/Copy command.

You may need to activate it manually in Design Workspace - Utilities Tab - Addins Group - Scripts and Addins.

Usage

Create a part with a cylindrical counterbore (e.g. using the Hole command or generic extrusions). Then:

  1. Activate the command
  2. Select one or more counterbore faces
  3. Select an edge the primary bridges should be parallel to
