Fusion 360 lacks a true "master" tool library that tracks what tools are used across different parts! Let's say you want to update speeds & feeds for a tool across many parts but which parts use that tool? Or, let's say you switch a thruspindlecoolant tool to a nonTSC tool but you NEED to update the CAM!
We "fixed" this with a Python script that parses through HTML setup sheets. While it's only a bandaid until Autodesk offers true 'linked libraries', it actually works well! Using the setup sheet data means running the script is fast and doesn't require access to Fusion or the file.
