I was able to completely migrate from Fusion 360 To FreeCAD - eviltoast

Wanted to share this since this was a long Project. Since Autodesk started changing Fusions functionality, from limiting active projects, to changing their terms of service. Since I need a CAD tool for my 3D Printable designs, I started migrating to a new cross platform CAD tool. That happened to be FreeCAD.

Learning FreeCAD wasn’t easy, but was well worth my time. And after slowly pecking at it for 11 months, I was able to re-build every design I made (that I cared about).

I’ve made my 3D Printable designs available on my GitHub if you are interested: https://github.com/the16bitgamer/16BitVirtualStudiosDesigns

      I haven’t had a Windows install at home or work that I’ve “owned” for over a decade so, it’s a lot more of an inconvenience to me, to be fair. I don’t want to re-learn an OS that I spent so much effort removing from the realm of “my problem”.
