Fusion 360 Model of the Month – January
Congratulations to Alexis Benaitier, the Model of the Month winner for January! Alexis used Fusion 360 to design a Stirling engine. Read on for more about Alexis and the projects he has underway.
In this QUICK TIP, we’ll be showing you a way to help you find hidden bodies within a component, but probably more importantly, how to avoid that from happening altogether!
