Just gotta say that running Windows OSes on a Mac in VMs .. rocks!
I have clients on Windows and Mac. Been using VMware Fusion for years to run multiple OSes at once and switch between them as needed.
The best part, though, is being able to run old software! I have a copy of #AutoCAD 2004 (from when I worked at #Autodesk 20+ years ago), that runs great in my Win7 VM. I'm also able to run #FrameMaker 12 (2014) .. pre-subscription.
@astraluma TBH, the fact that #Autodesk was allowed to de-facto #monopolize #engineering #Software is an utter failure of #regulators like #FTC & @EUCommission !
What free (preferably #FOSS) software I could use to easily create 3D models I could then later use for #3Dprinting? I know #Blender's an option, but prolly too much for a newbie. I saw a tutorial on #Autodesk Fusion 360 that seems decent (easy to use, but not too limiting), but that's #Windows and #macOS only.
I made a thing! Well a customizable tape measure case. My first foray in #fusion360. Pretty pleased with the result. Now to get modding this sucker. #3dprinting #tapemeasure #autodesk
Here's the model!

I’m wondering if there is any way in #Autodesk #Fusion360 to take some kind of file that lists geometry and import it as a model.
For instance - a file that lists the positions and sizes of elements in a Yagi antenna.
Sort of like this:
Cylinder - 100mm length, origin 0,0,50, rotation 0,0,90
