If we resize the sphere now, it will also change the size of the cut area because Fusion 360 has linked the Body 2 to the Cut operation applied to Body 1. So, we make a Copy of the Sphere and resize the copy. This way we don't have to go through the positioning process of Step 3.

We do this by adding a 0.1mm x 0.1mm x 12.5mm bar where the objects will be flat on the printer's base plate. But first, we need to raise the sphere up 1.5mm so that its contact point is the same as the base of the Box.
