Hi,

The file cannot be opened in ACAD and Inkscape either.
Try to convert it to another format (R13) using a viewer.

I managed to open it in CorelDRAW 2018, Inkscape, Affinity Designer and nanoCAD without issue. I think it just that it's an older version than Fusion supports, anyway, I saved it from nanoCAD as R2013 (see attached) and checked it imports into Fusion.

 

Hope this helps.

I've created a Windows application (and now Mac as well) for creating custom thread files for Fusion. You can find out about it here. Hope you find it useful.
If you need to know how to offset threads for 3D printing then I've created a guide here which you might find useful.
If you would like to send me a tip for any help I've provided or for any of my software applications you've found useful, you can do this via my Ko-Fi page here.

Well.. yeah. it is missing the imagery I need. But I do really appreciate your help. That was very nice of you to take the time to do.

You're welcome. It only took a couple of minutes so it was no bother.

 

BTW, it's always good practise to reply directly to a post rather than the thread in general by using the "Reply" button

This helps people keep track of what's going on in a thread.

 

Good luck with the guitar!
