How to create turning profile from existing model

Hello,

We are getting very often model files from our customers. The model shows completed part with lathe and mill.   Is there any tool in fusion to create a lathe profile out of selected model by selecting the body and axis of rotation?

 

Regards

 

Marek

But I do not think this function will create separate turning body so  I will be able to make and dimension a drawing for our lathe guy.

No, it will not create a separate new body. Although you could simulate it out and save the stock, but it won't give you a file you can easily work with (an .stl)
