Learn to Design a 3D Printed Fidget Cone with Fusion

Hi, my name is Saumya 👋. In this project, I created a Fidget Cone using Fusion 360, a powerful 3D design software 💻. This guide will show you how I designed the model and turned it into a real object using a 3D printer 🖨️.

Supplies

Computer or Laptop

Internet Connection

Fusion 360 (Personal Use version)

Bambu Lab P1S 3D Printer ️

PLA Filament

Bambu Lab Studio Software

SD Card (for transferring G-code file)

Click on “Get Autodesk Fusion for Personal Use.”

Sign in to your account and click “Trust this device.”

Complete the three steps shown and submit.

Finally, click “Download Now,” install the software, and sign in.

Create the Fidget Cone Design 🛠️

Open Fusion 360 and start a new project.

Use the design tools to create the Fidget Cone by following the tutorial.

Once completed, save your design file.

Set Up the 3D Printer ⚙️

I used a Bambu Lab P1S 3D printer with PLA filament.

Install Bambu Lab Studio software to control the printer.

Set up the filament type, vendor, temperature, and other required settings.

Slice the Model 🔄

Import your design file into Bambu Lab Studio.

Adjust the print settings if needed.

Click on slice to convert the model into G-code, which the printer understands.

Print the Fidget Cone 🖨️✨

Transfer the G-code file to the printer using an SD card.

Insert the SD card into the printer and start printing.

Wait for the print to complete.

Your Fidget Cone will be ready with a smooth and high-quality finish 🎉

Conclusion🎯

This project shows how a digital design can be turned into a real object using 3D printing. It is a fun and creative way to learn design and manufacturing 🚀.
