Man I love your tutorials so much. You have such a great method of explaining that is clear and detailed yet not filled with time wasting discussion, and your problem solving through intentional error is paramount to the quality of explanation you provide. Very reminiscent of the lecturing style used at my Engineering University. Great work, and please continue posting this content.

If you place the rectangular pin at the point where the path changes from a line to an arc and you cut the line and the arc separately (two sweeps), the cut will be correct. If you need to make the slot slightly larger than the pin (for 3D printing for example), you can make a copy and then shell the pin (or pull the face out a bit) before you do the cuts. I'm really glad they added this new feature.

A few weeks ago I needed tis feature for a project, would have save many hours. I refactored that project from 8 operations to 3. thanks for the video!

Excellent presentation of not just the new function, but some of the common mistakes and errors that will arise while using it. Thank you!

So great this tutorial! I learn so much from you, thank you so much!!

I have needed this tutorial for a LONG time! Thank you!

I have been waiting for this feature for years! It's extremely hard (nigh on impossible sometimes) to emulate. Knowing something as simple as the exact space an opening door would traverse should now be easily solvable and that's only a very simple example (for those who think it's just an arc, a door has thickness and the arc will only yield an approximation).

Great, this is exactly the explanation I needed for a locking mechanism I was trying todo. Thanks!

Inspiring. Nice change from dealing with my 3D CAM toolpaths!

Oh that's cool! Thanks so much for this tutorial. This will be such a helpful tool.

Thank you, your videos have helped improve my fusion skills. I made the rectangle cut using 2 sketches.

Another great video, I can see how this will be helpful for cutting slots is sheet metal, which is 95% of what I work with.

Come to think of it, it works almost like a thin feature for cutting slots. You would only need to sketch out single line paths instead of slots. The downside is that you would need to model out a cylinder as a cutting tool for each slot.

Thanks for the video! I was recently trying to use this to create a custom "quarter turn fastener," where a pin needs to sweep along a 3D curve. I unfortunately wasn't able to make it work due to various issues with the curve geometry.

Great tutorial

thx!!!

Thanks for this! Autodesk should add an offset distance for this feature, seems a no brainer as you'll need some sort of clearance and it is extra work to select all faces afterward and then select offset.

@@Fusion360School Great idea.

I was so excited when I heard about this feature in the insider build. I was really hoping this would allow an engraving feature (like V-groove cutting). A standard swept cut will not cut a generalized path like text or vector art. In my attempts so far, neither will the solid sweep. :( My workaround is still to use the CAM tools and export a mesh file after doing a v-groove cutting operation.

really nice tutorial! i've had the same problem some time ago with the rectangular solid sweep... couldn't find a solution, so i needed to do everthing manually in two steps with two bodies with different starting points following each other... i do have another thing for you, maybe you have some solution: I have a cone. on the cone there are two spiral paths (triangular crosssection) indentet/cut into the side of the cone. these two paths are the same but some distance appart in direction of the cone hight... looks like a fancy drillbit but not symetrical. now I need to connect the two paths at the tip of the cone with a circular arc (following the curvature of the cone). this part should be a "mold" for a wire. u bend de wire in half, position the bend around the circular arc and then bend around the cone in the spiral paths (like two parallel legs)... after that you can push it flat and you have a "double, countinous" spiral with both ends at the same destination. i hope my instructions are sufficiant 🥲🥲🥲 unfurtunatly i cant send you a picture here... thank you !

Perhaps my pepper mill project is back on!

Thanks

Great video, this is a cool new feature. How would you do this if you wanted the twist section of the bayonet to be not perfectly horizontal? e.g. 80 degrees from the vertical path?

@Fusion360School

Ай бұрын

At first, I thought that maybe it is just a case of creating a plane at an angle and sketching an arc. But an angled plane cutting across a cylinder creates an elliptical path. Maybe you can experiment with using the angled plane to create a split line instead.

You can edit what tools you have in different toolbars by adding them from the "..." to the right of every tool in the dropdown menus. Check Pin to toolbar. Icons in the toolbars can be drag around if you want to change the order. If you want to get rid of one just drag it out from the toolbar.

How did you do the motion in the first segment? Motion along a path?

If you create an axis instead of a circle and sweep around that you will be able to have a complete radial volume sweep as opposed to an arc.

@Fusion360School

Ай бұрын

I assume that you are referring to the second example here. When I went back into the sweep feature to try to select the axis of the circle sketch (x-axis in this case), it does not allow me to select it. I also tried setting the orientation to aligned and select the x-axis from there. I was able to select the axis in this case but I did not get the correct result. I might have misinterpreted your explanation here. Do let me know! I am really curious about this.

@@Fusion360School you need to create a line in 3D space, you can’t simply select plane and then an axis or normal of that plane because it doesn’t know where the line is, only it’s direction. You may need to convert the line you make into an axis.

This is exactly the tool I've been looking for. I am trying to sweep a very complicated stl file through a solid to create a sort of mold. My issue is that the program crashes anytime i try to do it. I can't recreate the body stl natively. Does anyone know how to work with large compilated models without crashing?

Wow

will this be something the hobbyist version of fusion will have access to or is it a paid only feature

Yeah, the only solution I see for the rectangular slot is to copy the pin (Use "Point to Point", click on start of vertical path, then end of vertical path), do a solid sweep with the copy, and then remove it.

The issue with the slot can be avoided by using the 'aligned' orientation option with the aligned axis set to be around the same axis as the arc.

@Fusion360School

Ай бұрын

I was not aware that there is an align option in sweep! I just went to experiment with that option but I don't seem to get the result needed. When you say "same axis as the arc", are you referring to the axis of the cylinder?
