Includes:

  • Parts Sketch, suitable for cutting all parts from a single piece of Plywood.
  • Seperate 'extrusions' for each part
  • Simple Component Paths: The Bare minimum to make the shapes and cuts necessary for the MaslowCNC parts.
  • Advanced Component Paths: All part paths, Pockets for the Sled mounting bolts, the Rigid Router's own plastic sled, engraved angle braces.

To be added:

  • More accurate machine settings (Feeds and Speeds) for all paths.
  • Roundover cuts for the Advanced sled, using a V-Bit
  • Full 3D model of Assembled MaslowCNC

Fusion 360 Customizations/Scripts/Add-Ons:

To be Added:

  • MaslowCNC's custom Router Bits Tool Definitions for Fusion360
  • Tested Router Bits Tool Definitions For Fusion360
  • Custom Post Processor
  • Optimized 2D Contour Machining Template
  • Optimized 2D Pocket Machining Template

Alternative GRBL Post Processor

Github: GRBL-Post-Processor This purports to be a more accurate Fusion360 PostProcessor for GRBL than the one included with Fusion360

Dogbone

Github: Dogbone

This scripting Add-In will automate the creation of Dogbone Fillets on interior corners, allowing easier parts assembly and preventing cracks common on these angles due to natural expansion and contraction. Dogbone fillets are widely recommended on all CNC Machined plywood interior angles < 90 deg.

Part Nester

Github: NESTER

This Scripting Add-In helps optimize the layout of parts from any model on a single plane (the work surface) for machining, allowing you to more easily use the 3D modeling in Fusion 360 to display both your completed design, and your machining layout as seperate views.
