I'm using Fusion360, and trying to make changes to .stl files.

I would like to know what your preferred way to make changes to print files is. For instance, I was trying to combine a clamp and a cup holder and dealing with the resulting mesh files is pretty frustrating.

If there's any guides or videos on how this is generally done, that would be helpful as well.

I've been very impressed with Prusa Slicers ability to do this kind of thing. I keep telling myself I'll do it in Tinkercad if I have any issues with Prusa slicer, but I always seem to accomplish what I need there.
