Slicer for Fusion 360 is a confusingly named, but free and very useful piece of software. It’s not a slicer like you’re thinking - it doesn’t turn 3d files into GCode for 3d printing. What it does is slice up 3d files for various ways of expressing the geometry. You can use it to make sculptures out of numerous horizontal slices of physical material, or you can create shapes like this out of interlocking slices.
The software will output PDFs of your design into multiple sheets - easy to cut out manually or adapt into your CNC cutting software. You can set parameters for your material thickness and get helpful previews. The Software is technically abandonware, but you don’t need a Fusion 360 license to run it. Check it out and see what you can do with it. For more tips like these, check out the full episode of Maker Update, each week on Digi-Key.")

![A Closer Look at Servo Motors [Maker Update #Shorts]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FazGjSMjag4/hqdefault.jpg "A Closer Look at Servo Motors [Maker Update #Shorts]
A few weeks ago we took a look at the three essential types of motors you can use in your projects. This week we’re going to take a closer look at Servo Motors. Servo motors are characterized by having a fairly limited range of rotation - usually 180 degrees, but a high degree of precision and repeatability. They can usually reposition fairly quickly, which is why they’re often used for applications like RC cars and animatronics
They’re also easy to program for when using platforms like Arduino. All you need to do is use a single line of code to specify an angle, and the motor will go there. They also don’t have massive power requirements most of the time, usually 5 volts - though some more powerful servos can require as much as 8 volts. For more tips like these, check out Maker Update, each week on the Digi-Key Youtube Channel.")
