![Create Repeating Vector Patterns [Maker Update #Shorts]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/DLRca4SoWF8/hqdefault.jpg "Create Repeating Vector Patterns [Maker Update #Shorts]
Polygonia Design: https://polygonia.design/
If you use any kind of CNC cutting tool, you should probably know about Polygonia design. This is a web based parametric design tool for creating repetitive vector designs that you can use for your creations.
This tool is based around the idea of creating iterated, tiling designs, and it might take you a moment to figure out how to best work with it. Even still, it’s a fun tool to play around with and you can easily download vector files for you to use in your own design software. For more tips like this one, check out the full episode of Maker Update, each week on the Digi-Key Youtube Channel.")
![Slicer for Fusion 360 [Maker Update #Shorts]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/EtmhrGBzzzM/hqdefault.jpg "Slicer for Fusion 360 [Maker Update #Shorts]
https://www.autodesk.com/support/technical/article/caas/tsarticles/ts/3yg7zznS94MHNDG7KMV8Qg.html
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.")
