Is there a way to upload a CAD model of my Lathe Tool Holder to Fusion? Or is the tool builder the only option?

At the moment, the tool builder is the only option, but we are working on improving that in the not too extremely distant future

This is a must have. Doesnt have to be fancy, just add the same Form Tool option as for milling. Forget all the other improvements and focus on this...the ROI will amaze.

Not much further along then when this thread was first started, unfortunately.

i really have a hard time understanding how this can be so deficient when the tool is what generates the tool path. if the tool is wrong, then so is the path. i have a custom trepan tool, but cannot define it. isnt  fusion360 a CAD tool too?

cmon autodesk, put some effort into this feature.

isnt it embarrassing how lacking the lathe tool builder is when compared to other CAM?
