slddrw." As a result you have no path from 3DX SW to SW, unlike Fusion360 where the same files can be used with or without a licence fee. This digital watermark is added to native 3D file formats, such as. "You cannot open up files created with your Maker account within a commercial or academic platform. some of the CAM goodies still leave you with the toolpaths on those files.ģDX SW watermarks your files, a non-starter for me.

Not sure how much of SW lerning is useful on 3DX SW.įusion360 has the option of monthly (CA$80) is you need access to the full package. Learning support, there is a vast amount of F360 help on YT, not so much for SW and less for 3DX SW. The 3D Guy specifically is wrong on not running the program locally "Powerful parametric modeling you know and love with SOLIDWORKS CAD-installs locally", so just like Fusion360 Both store your files first in the cloud, both support getting your files local to your PC. In the case of SW it is Java based, a pain IMO. 3DX SW has no CAM apparently.ģDX SW and Fusion360 boh download program stuff to your PC. I used the SW CAM for a year via EAA, painful. On typical parts I run 15 minutes, no a lot of time to be saved with rapids. Or in my case a gantry mill that mimics a Tormach 1100m.
No rapdis, no tool changes but again not a big deal if you are running a converted boat anchor. Except Fusion360 is $0/yr.įusion360 has CAM, including some 4th axis rotary axis capabilities. I either have it editable or not depending on what I am doing.įusion360 Personal has a $1000 limit on profit so not a huge diff to 3DX SW. As an example I have a 3D model of my lathe, every single casting, bolt, nut and washer. If you are designing things in 'the 3D way' meaning 1 file is an assembly that contains components, then as TorontoBuilder and I have found there is no actual limit. There is a reason why he has so few subscribers?įusion360 Personal also has no limit on # of files, just that you can only have 10 editable. Supremely painful and IMHO not a correct overview (I watched another painful 10 minutes of his comparison video.
Or is it just handshaking to say you have a SR# & now run it locally. But I'm not clear on 'web version' if that means you are running on the web (so PC/OS agnostic). The current version is Win-10 only, Win-7 & prior is bye-bye.

Depending on your parts/assembly complexity your PC has to be up to snuff. There is no CAM component to SW like F360. So possibly they took some of the Fusion360 pain points & made them more appealing. He says bit of rigmarole to first load files to the SW cloud, then back to local machine, but ultimately you can save your own files for real. Rather a painful video to get through, but according to his rambling, doesn't look to be any maximum file saves. If you aren't selling stuff or bidding out jobs to CNC folks then who cares. Possibly the parts are digitally 'marked' (my personal hunch). Not sure about education versions I've heard they are pretty sticky accredited institutions/program verification. Rumor is that the EAA membership & veterans heavy discount will be no more & this price model will replace. Hard to find thorough feedback, maybe its still too new. I keep loose tabs on the new Solidworks for makers which is their recent 99$/yr pricing model. If you have a decent modern computer you can have many many components without bogging down. They don't ever have to relate to the other components in your file. Dont add new actual files, add new components. When you work in one of your ten permissible fusion files, it helps to think of components as files. I have files for wood shop, metal shop, garage, household, ebike. Then just add components like "Lathe" and Mill" and sub components "spindle mount"
One way to defeat the 10 file limit when designing new small parts for different things is to create a new project, entitled "The Universe" for instance, and then create a new file entitled "The Shop".

I maintain an XP desktop and a windows 7 (IIRC) desktop to use exclusively with my last paid versions of autocad. I started on CAD when the programs were still DOS based.

once they moved to software as a service they lost me.
I've been buying commercial cad programs from autodesk for 3 decades and have spent thousands and thousands on upgrades. The new software as a service model sucks. Renewals can be a pain as my last one was, but it is worth it for free. Think of it as their "new coke" experiment. autodesk quickly backed down and wont ever revisit this.

I posted this in a 3d printing thread but it is more apropos here:Ī word about Fusion 360, renewals, and the limit of 10 editable files.įirstly, Autodesk pondered eliminating the free hobbyist license and found that they'd lose their entire hobbyist market to other vendors all too happy to take over the gateway to commercial licensing. Forgive me if posting this same info twice violates the rules.
