Creating a stainless steel wire mesh - fusion 360

Hi @ademola.adekunle.  Before we go too far down this path, you should try to decide whether you really need to model the mesh at a fine level of detail.  Is the mesh that you are modeling a central/critical portion of your design?  Are you looking for the mesh to serve some critical functional aspect of your design, for instance to feed into some kind of EMI analysis tool?  If not, then I would caution against trying to model this in any detail.  This will be an expensive exercise, both from your time, and also from the point of view of Fusion performance, design file size, open/save time, etc.  If, for instance, the mesh is just a small part of a larger design, and is more cosmetic, I would suggest that you use some of the mesh materials to show a mesh, but not actually model it.  Here are a couple of examples, from a design I made for fun, of a 1960s-era race car.

 

Here, I use a "Stainless Steel Mesh - Wire" material to model the scren over the air intakes:

 

Here I use a "Stainless Steel Mesh - Slot" to simulate the radiator pattern, without having to model such complex geometry:

The last one is not a great example, but hopefully you get the idea.  These are all very simple geometries, but visually they look very impressive, and can save you a lot of work and improve your modeling performance.
