With the script I was able to import a heightmap image of a penny and generate a mesh. I wanted to mill the model so I then converted the mesh to a t-spline surface. Fusion 360 doesn&rsquo;t yet support milling meshes.</p> <p>Once I had the t-spline, I created a block body for a base and then placed the t-spline atop that.</p>
