Convert Acrylic Templates into SVG

I know of Fusion 360, have played inside of it briefly

It just that I’ve spent money on all these acrylic templates and was hoping to be able to “easily” bring them into the software so it didn’t feel like a waste of money

Unfortunately, the “quality triangle” comes into play:

That’s where I was going. If it has to be ‘good’ (higher tolerance / accurate), Go with Neil’s method, either in Fusion or CC, and it will likely end up being better than your plastic template.
If it only has to be ‘fast’ (Not too accurate, but easy), go with Will’s method, and just trace & scale it.

I still have no idea what the part is??? So no context to derive Fast, Cheap or Good :slight_smile:

I guessed it was a wine glass holder that hangs on a wine bottle, hence my “third wheel” comment. i could be way off though.

For what it’s worth, I still find it faster for certain things to make a template and do the rest the non-cnc way. I get to use my CNC to make good templates though.
