Hey, @MarkJr @beluga3858 @casportpony @electrycmonk

I watched this video and I'm now tempted to learn "onshape". Thoughts?

I think it's time to grow-up from tinkercad... but to what? OnShape, fusion 360, Solid Works, or something else?

Update... As promised.... Watched full video....well now, after rewatching a bit of the 1st half, the second half seemed alot more understandable.... It actually looked "doable"....

I've now moved over to FreeCad and am giving that a try... steep learning curve for sure on all these parametric tools!
 
Nice! Did he print dual color or two prints and glue the orange onto the gray?
but the first time he printed, one of the heater thingies went out on his printer so he had to order and replace....next day delivery from amazon to the rescue

have you tried the fusion360 yet? as i’ve previously alluded i’m the clueless one in the house when it comes to these softwares but when i posed the question to DS he liked fusion360 best.....he didn’t care for onshape because of it being “browser-based” ??? and of course the $$$ involved to use solidworks or autocad as a hobbyist would be cost-prohibitive
it is amazing to me how far these softwares have come along in quality and user-friendliness.....when we first started printing surgical guides in 2012, the software was VR mesh!!! huge learning curve and terrible graphics in my opinion

i think this attests to something we were told when we first started printing......”a happy printer is a busy printer” and while hobbyist printers do not have to run 24/7/365 like our dinosaur with battery back-ups etc, i do think that problems can occur from non-use.
