I have to be honest, my favorite thing to print with is PLA+ , it prints basically like PLA, but a slightly higher temp, and is made with UV resistant materials. It handles outdoors well and doesn't have the picky printing features of ASA. Yes its slightly more expensive than PLA but its super easy to work with and it works outdoors. But nice job on the part!

I am very proficient in hand drawing, sketching and technical drawing, yet I do everything digitally for like 20+ years. My main method for this rough designs is to take a image with a camera, or slap it onto a flatbed scanner. Use the photo as import into CAD and scale to known dimension. Then I just have to trace the important outlines and features.
I find that way faster then to try and measure angles and every detail.

I made my own hexagonal posts for my front porch and needed some kind of cap to put on them. After looking at the big box stores and not finding anything that would work, it dawned on me that I could 3d print my own. After two years in the sun and weather, I don't see any deterioration of the pla that I used to print them.

I make very rough sketches in notebooks especially if I'm not home.
But (this may be because I'm dyslexic) I find it easy to build it on the fly, i'v been trying hard to put all features into the original fusion sketch.
But normally I build on the go, so you can imagine my timeline is usually very long.
But like I said it may be due to my dyslexia I tend to imagine the finished project in my head.

I did something very similar for my dad's camera doorbell. i made piece with an angle and the correct mounting holes so that he could get it to the right angle because he was mounting it onto some siding that was at an odd angle. and of course a second one when the angle wasn't quite right which was as easy as changing the number in cad and reprinting it.

I find that in Fusion if I start filleting corners in the sketch I end up painting myself into a corner (pun intended). I do all sketches as straight corners and then fillet the bodies. Solidworks might be different when designing parametrically.
