    Good afternoon everyone. I am teaching an Ag Mech 1,2 and a Fab Welding class here in California. I'm having my students use CAD program using Fusion 360 then converting and saving their files into a DXF file. I have tried to save it as a EDU file, but Fusion 360 does not allow it. I have saved the file as a DXF file and tried to open it under Torchmate, but I have no luck because it has tried to up-load for the past three hrs or so. Any one have trouble or a sense of direction ?

    Fusion 360 and TM Cad do not play well together, my understanding is 360 is using an older standard of dxf. See the attached file impdxf, download and rename the extension from txt to dll and drop into your TM Cad folder, you will want to backup your current impdxf.dll file first before overwriting in case you need to revert back to original.

    Dnmeistr, I had to say that I have had no luck. Is there a way to contact you?
