How To

Illustrator

I started by tracing the design I wanted in Adobe Illustrator

Next I used the Adobe Illustrator shape builder to take all of my individual shapes and make it one big shape

Next, I exported the Adobe Illustrator file as a DXF file. (THE DXF PART IS KEY!)

Fusion 360 (creating Sketch)

I selected the create sketch button to start to process

The selected the plane I wanted it on. X, Y, Z plane selected (shown above)

Then I selected the Insert DXF file button to bring our Abobe DXF file to Fusion 360

Finish sketch

Fusion 360 (Extrude)

First, select the entire sketch by drag clicking.

Then, select the extrude button which is directly next to the sketch tool

Then, Extrude the design in the negative .75 direction.

Next, go over to sketches and make sure that your sketch is visible by clicking the eye icon

Next, Select the open space that not the basketball, MTN, or pickaxes and extrude it in the negative .5 direction
