I like the concepts of Extruded product builder and Solid model analyzer but based on what I've seen I think with some setup and tuning, fusion 360 surpasses those tools pretty quickly. That being said, Fusion 360 seems to have some pretty slick features for custom stuff that microvellum is just not there on yet. I do a great deal of my estimating work in microvellum and it's become an integral part of our business. We've been using microvellum for 15 years and I have no intention of switching entirely. While there are obvious flaws in this line of thinking, (Like where do you find time to build a library from scratch), the idea of using fusion 360 is intriguing to me.

"If you're spending tens of thousands of dollars on Microvellum or Cabinet vision for their entire library of products, construction methods etc, why not build it all from scratch in fusion 360 exactly the way you want it". Someone I spoke to recently at an AWI event had an interesting thought that went something like this,


Curious on first impressions of Fusion 360.
