In this tutorial, we’re taking a look at using sculpt tools in Fusion 360 to make organic designs for enclosures. I’m currently working on modeling a Pip boy 3000 MK IV to 3D print for a Raspberry Pi and an Adafruit 3.5″ PiTFT.

I thought I’d take a piece from the design to show you how to use the tools in the sculpting environment to create some interesting shapes for enclosures.

Let me know in the comments if you have any questions. Do you like these longer tutorials? or I should make them shorter? Thanks for watching!

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
