3D Fabrication
Build a fabrication in 3D by creating components, placing them in the scene, and refining the layout before sending it to the team.

Fabrication 3D Guide
Use this public workspace to build a fabrication by adding components one at a time, positioning them in 3D, measuring the result, and then sending the fabrication to the cart.
1. Start The Fabrication
- Click Add Component.
- Create the part in Component 3D and apply it back into Fabrication 3D.
- Repeat until all required components appear in the Assembly Item List.
2. Select And Organize Items
- Click an item in the viewport or Assembly Item List to select it. Use Ctrl or Cmd while clicking to build a multi-selection for grouped moves.
- Open nested fabrication rows to drill into subcomponents when a loaded entry contains child items.
- Use Component 3D on leaf components to edit geometry and processing, or use the placement editor on fabrication rows to adjust position, rotation, quantity, spacing, direction, and appearance.
- Use Remove to delete a single item from the fabrication.
- Use the Coordinates button to switch between global and local coordinate views where available.
3. Move And Rotate
- Open Move in the toolbar, then start with Translate or Rotate.
- Translate starts in free 3D mode. After the first pickpoint, use Auto, X, Y, or Z to change axis constraints without losing the anchor.
- Use Live move before starting a translation if you want dynamic movement, or turn it off for preview-only placement and final projected movement.
- Use the toolbar value field and Apply for exact rotate or translate values once the interaction is active.
4. Measure And Dimension
- Use Tape Measure and Protractor for temporary measurement checks.
- Use Linear and Angle in the Dimension toolbar for persistent placed dimensions.
- Use the axis controls in Measure or Dimension to constrain readings to Auto, X, Y, or Z as needed.
5. Review The Scene
- Use camera presets (Iso, Front, Back, Left, Right, Top, Bottom), then Fit or Reset as needed.
- Use the display popover to toggle controls, snap, axes, measures, dimensions, labels, and tips.
- Use Refresh 3D after major data edits, and Load Sample Data when you want a quick test assembly.
6. Save, History, And Output
- Use Undo and Redo in the toolbar to move backward or forward through fabrication changes.
- Review the estimated sale price, then use Add to Cart when the fabrication is ready.
- Public mode does not allow fabrication file loading; components are added manually through Component 3D.
7. Best Practice Workflow
- Add all required components first.
- Check labels, quantities, spacing, and orientation in the Assembly Item List.
- Position the fabrication with Move tools, then confirm the result with Measure or Dimension.
- Finish with Fit, then add the fabrication to the cart.

Component 3D
Create or update a component directly in Component 3D, then apply it back into the current fabrication without saving a JSON file unless you explicitly choose to.
