Just what I need, another toy. smile

I was poking around on AutoDesk website. According to one comparison chart, "looks like" Fusion360 does not do 3D (STL or OBJ) output files? What file type are you passing from Fusion360 to slice in Sheetcam to generate your G-code files? Or, maybe that was just the Free version I was looking at?

The paid version of Fusion360 does OBJ and STL as well as others.
