DXF Import Fails and hangs Fusion 360

[HarrisonClassic]

When importing a DXF file into Fusion it just hangs.

Works fine in AutoCAD.

This is a pretty nasty DXF, you just have to be a little more patient.  By the way, it reports when opening, that there are no declared units in the DXF.  Model is attached.

No Screencast???

John, Hi

I was just coming back to edit the post. It finally came in, just took about 30 minutes to do the import.

It's a multi layered DXF, so I might bring it into AutoCAD and "strip" it down to the bare essentials and try that.

Still - a bit too long for an import 🙂

I did attempt to upload a screencast, but for some reason it didn't appear in the dropdown. I did paste in the Screencast UTL, hit preview, then Import, but it just said "invalid HTML" and didn't accept the insert for some reason...
