Slicer for fusion 360 is available ( not sure if it's free anymore ) With it, you can take a 3d model and slice it into layers on every conceivable angle.
You can change thicknesses of the slices as well as the number of slices you want. It's really an amazing piece of software. I found a project that I wanted to try and then found the program and had my own version built by the end of a weekend.
This was the inspiration, Emetalworks on Vancouver Island made this one.

Re: 3D File drawing
The slicer program actually puts in all the cross pins that you need to hold it together. From there it's just a matter of removing slices and making spacers and welding it up.
