To create a single cutout shape on the side of your box in Fusion 360, you can use the Combine feature. Here's a general outline of the steps you can take:

  1. Create a sketch on the side of the box where you want the cutout shape.
  2. Draw the desired cutout shape within this sketch.
  3. Use the Extrude tool to extrude this shape through the box.
  4. Select the Combine tool (Modify > Combine) and choose the box and the cutout shape you've just created.
  5. Select the "Cut" operation in the Combine dialog box to subtract the cutout shape from the box.

To ensure that the cutout only goes through the outer wall, you can set the depth of the extrusion to be slightly less than the total thickness of the box.

If you encounter any specific issues while implementing this, feel free to provide more details or screenshots, and I can offer more targeted assistance.
