PDFHow to Create an SVG File
There are several ways to create an SVG file to be used in Fusion 360. In this post, I’ll be covering two main ways to create an SVG file.
Using an SVG Graphics Program
Adobe Illustrator can be used to create SVG files.
First, you can use any graphics program that allows you to export to an SVG file. This method does require some knowledge in another piece of software. Though, many graphics programs can be picked up within the hour. Almost all utilize similar tools, including the use of text and simple geometric shapes.
You will want to look into the Pen tool if you want to create complex SVG designs. Some programs may not call it the pen tool, but almost all graphics programs have a way to create vector lines.
Below is a list of free and paid graphics programs that can export to the SVG file extension.

Using an Online SVG Converter
Convertio is one of many free online converter tools that can turn a JPG into an SVG file.
The second method of creating an SVG file would be to use an online converter. There are several (hundred) online converters, including both free and paid websites.
Most file conversion sites will let you upload a simple JPG or PNG file to export as an SVG file.
The issue with this method often lies in complex objects, which have thin parts. Small details often get lost in the conversion process. If your logo or design needs small details then you’ll be better off creating it in a graphics program (listed above).
Here are a few of the top free converter sites:

I would recommend printing the handle with the holding end facing up.
Supports will be needed for the handle.
