Good for you! It was really fun to read about your story of discovery. One day you get to parametric modeling in Fusion 360!
The tutorials that several experienced Glowforgers have assembled help to navigate around early Glowforge indiosynchrasies regarding vectors/rasters, operation order, alignment… I’ve bookmarked so many, it’s beginning to look like I’ve highlighted the whole book! I assume that you’ve been going through The Matrix posts Community Glowforge Tutorials: Table of Contents. I guess, I’m mostly thinking about how I will get up-to-speed when my Glowforge arrives.
I can’t wait to see what else you make. Also, thank you for offering your designs. That’s a very nice thing to do and fitting for the season.
Merry Christmas!
