Remy RoseA patron asked our makerspace to design and CNC mill a replica of the Gemeente-Energiebedrijf sign found all over Amsterdam. They brought us a screenshot of a stock photo and some 6mm thick aluminum to cut it out from.

WildRikku<p>Finally starting to get the hang of Fusion 360. Designed one part, modified a second one and succesfully joined them. Printing now.<br>Apart from the permanent frustration caused by me not knowing how to CAD, I actually like working with Fusion. I will give FreeCAD a chance but I'm tempted to figure out how to run Fusion on Linux in my ongoing fuck Windows migration process.
