Hi,

 

The problem is that there are no Components to turn into printable objects, just an enourmous number of mesh

bodies. I created a component from body and it made a component that I was immediately able to export to a STEP

file and an STL file.

Learning how the timeline works would also be a huge help to you instead of turning it off.

 

I would very strongly advise you to check out the Fusion Documentation and Self Paced learning Tutorials and get

your head around how fusion works. It does not take a great deal of time and the time is well worth the effort.

 

Cheers

 

Andrew

These are open mesh bodies. They must first be closed.

The open side of this part can be closed with a patch.

Then sitch it.

The part is then a solid.

Proceed in a similar way with the other parts.

 

Next part patch
