Weldments and structural elements, Cutting list

[Anonymous]

I'm sure this is a common one, but weldments is one of my favourite features of SW, which I am currently porting across from.

To be able to build a library of common Aluminium and steel profiles and easily allocate them to a 3D line structure, and to be able to output a cutting list (with angles) would be a great boon. 

Fusion 360 could also improve on SW joints options if this feature could be added

I believe they are calling it a frame generator.  That’s what I’m also looking for.

How is it?

I'm currently using Frame Generator. This was created by Matthew Nichols from Autodesk. A big thank you Matthew! I agree that Weldments from SW is one of their best creations. 

Currently Frame Generator, only has a few basic sectional shapes, with no library function. 

Hopefully Fusion will pick up this Frame Generator, add functions like:

Cutting lists (with angles) 

3D line creation (simplified)

Add fillet welds to joints

Library function and the ability to add your own sections.
