Took some time and trial and error, but I made my first Fusion 360 part and took it all the way to CNC Milling on my PM-940CNC.

Pretty simple in that I wanted to make a tool holder plate with some 1.25" diameter and 1.0" diameter holes. Used a 10 X 15 X .25" plate of Aluminum.

Designed and modeled in Fusion 360:
Then did the CAM setup with the Centroid Post Processor:
Resulting GCode programmed was 1145 blocks and took about 70 minutes:

End product came out pretty nice and I definitely ready to make more complex parts:

Fusion 360 is just way to cool! I parked my Bob-Cad Cam (both lathe and mill versions) and never looked back.

I can see why. This is so much better and I I just barely know how to use it. I have subscription to www.pluralsight.com for tech training and they happen to have about 20+ Fusion 360 training classes. I went thru a couple at 1.5X speed while playing with the software to get the essence of it. Will probably go back over the training again to pick up the refined points. (Kinda like watching a good movie the 2nd or 3rd time - I always see something new ).
