Generative design marks the dawn of a new era of technology, design, and manufacturing! Don't let the seemingly delicate, ornate structures fool you--these parts are MADE to withstand an onslaught of stresses. We teamed up with Gavin Bath from CADPRO Systems to machine a generatively designed longboard/skateboard truck on the 5-axis.

We'll discuss what generative design is, how it works, and how we machined the part using Fusion 360 Steep & Shallow toolpaths, collision avoidance, part inspection, and an awesome workholding technique suggested by Rob Lockwood.

This is the story of the most complicated part we've ever made!
