Tutorial: How to draw accurate PCB outline for KiCad projects using Fusion 360
Demonstration was done with simple PCB shape, but same principles can be used for more complicated shapes.
KiCad has evolved during past couple of years and it has become my favorite PCB design software. But I have never liked the sketching tools of KiCad and drawing PCB's outlines has always been a nightmare. Nowadays I use Fusion 360's sketching tools to create the outlines for almost all of my PCB projects, even though I'm still using KiCad for rest of the design process.
Fusion 360 sketches can be exported as DXF files, which are supported in KiCad. With couple of clicks the sketch from Fusion 360 will be transferred to the EdgeCuts -layer in KiCad.

Following days/weeks I will publish much more videos than usually. I want to test few things out regarding producing and publishing videos. I have also found that having a burst of (semi) daily videos improves productivity... Keeps stream of thought going and makes coming up with new ideas easier.
