Brian Ekins, Patrick Rainsberry, Autodesk This class will inspire you to come up with your own great ideas by showing you some of the great Fusion 360 apps other people have written. This class will demonstrate and dissect 10 reference examples of applications built with the Fusion 360 API to show you the art of the possible.

1. Brian Ekins and Patrick Rainsberry
10 Great Fusion 360 Apps

2. Fusion 360 Client API Philosophy
• Single API
• Exposed through multiple languages
• Provide support for basic scripting
• Provide support for complex commands
• Supported on both Windows and Mac

3. Stool Design
https://github.com/brianekins/StoolDesign

4. Stool Design
Provides commands for designing stool top and
generates g-code to cut the design.
Features:
• Commands with dynamic preview
• Draws randomly created sketches
• Generates g-Code from sketches
• Submits g-Code using FabMo

5. Creating g-Code for Lines
 Iterate through sketch lines
 Determine if current line connects
to the next line
 Cut to next point
 Retract and move to next set of
lines and begin cutting again
 Retract

6. Creating g-Code for Curves
 Convert curve to points.
 Write path for points.
 Retract

7. Submitting g-Code
 Uses FabMo component to find
tool and submit the job.

8. Dado and Rabbet Joints
https://github.com/brianekins/Dado-Rabbet

9. Dado and Rabbet Joints
Custom feature creation
Features:
• Get input from the user
• Controlled selections
• Create a constrained sketch
• Create an extrusion
• Group in timeline

10. Cork all Holes
https://github.com/brianekins/FusionHackathonSamples

11. Cork All Holes
Finds all holes and corks them.
Features:
• Find all “holes” using B-Rep
(topology and geometry).
• Create a cork component for
each size hole found.
• Inserts a cork and connect it
using a joint.

12. Find all “Holes”
• Find circular edges that
are the intersection of a
cylinder and plane.
• Edge is part of an inner
loop.
• Normals of face point
towards the cylinder axis.

13. Mesh Intersect
https://github.com/brianekins/MeshIntersect

14. Mesh Intersect
Creates a sketch that represents
the intersection of a mesh body.
Features:
• Control plane selection in various ways
• Simplified preview
• Gets triangle mesh from Fusion
• Uses its own math for calculating intersections
• Creates sketch and intersection lines

15. Custom Matrix and Vector Math
• Custom math classes to
avoid the overhead of API
calls.

16. Butter Melt and Fly Through

17. Butter Melt
Modifies a series of parameters and captures
the screen.
Features:
• Parameter edit
• Screen Capture

18. Fly Through
Repositions the camera based on curves.
Features:
• Curve query
• Camera edit
• Remembers
