When inserted it will be inserted as a component you can position using a joint then use in a sweep, extrue etc.&nbsp; Only problem you might run into is if you don't have a team hub you'll break the link to the cutter design when you insert.</P> <P>&nbsp;</P> <P>Mark</P> Tue, 26 May 2020 16:45:29 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/how-to-use-a-custom-tool-to-help-us-in-sketching/m-p/9540950#M110390 HughesTooling 2020-05-26T16:45:29Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/how-to-use-a-custom-tool-to-help-us-in-sketching/m-p/9540959#M110391 <P>Just add, I'm assuming you're using the form tool option and you've kept a library of your sketches for backups?</P> <P><span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="image.png" style="width: 736px;"><img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/775826i37D55C886269DB6D/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;px=999" role="button" title="image.png" alt="image.png" /></span></P> <P>Mark</P> Tue, 26 May 2020 16:49:03 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/how-to-use-a-custom-tool-to-help-us-in-sketching/m-p/9540959#M110391 HughesTooling 2020-05-26T16:49:03Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/how-to-use-a-custom-tool-to-help-us-in-sketching/m-p/9540983#M110392 <OL> <LI>Create a profile sketch in a new file.</LI> <LI>Create User Parameters for each dimension.</LI> <LI>Save.</LI> <LI>Insert Derive into the model file.</LI> <LI>Use a joint to position the tool profile sketch.</LI> <LI>Open User Parameters dialog.</LI> <LI>Click the star for each parameter you want to use to add them to the Favorites.</LI> </OL> Tue, 26 May 2020 17:01:38 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/how-to-use-a-custom-tool-to-help-us-in-sketching/m-p/9540983#M110392 etfrench 2020-05-26T17:01:38Z
