    Awesome! one of the best fusion tutorial, so basic yet full of valuable techniques. My first impression was: "What!? 30+ mins tutorial for a box? this must be a huge waste of time!" but you totally proved me wrong. Very valuable tutorial! Could you do a video of assembly (combining) of an external part into the current box (for example, if the lid is a separate fusion file itself). I was having lots of difficulties because they all had a different origin and it totally didn't work. Or maybe one with working with different origins or changing origins... And how about copy and paste sketches from a different file so that it doesn't have to be sketch from scratch.

    The extrusion of the lid may have an interference fit with the body. Perhaps there may have been a need of an inset on the rim of the extrusion. Should we have gone back and modeled the holes in the box so that they would be ready for 3D? The Amazon link for the 4K monitor is for a replaced item. As Amazon will be offering customers a link to a newer version, it would be best if you update your link so that you get credit on the newer model purchase. Great video for teaching of several overlooked features. Without a lot of extra time, instead of the 1 min intro, perhaps have instead shown off User Parameters for box Height, Length, Width, Wall Thickness, Screw selection, etc, to show how doing it once can result in an infinite number of similar but different boxes. Thank you for your time.

I reverted several times and stated again but after the downloading of the screw I'm a bit lost. I copy the screw 3 times.

    @@learnitalready I also learned how to 'Project'! I forgot to mention that one. It turns out that after I made the screws for the box, and joined them, the holes in the lid didn't line up with the holes in the box. I had projected the center point of the fillets. I had to go back in the timeline, and edit the projection, which broke the joints, so I had to edit those, and select new faces for the holes. It was very good practice! Speaking of filits, in the beginning of the lesson, you mentioned a fillet on the inside of the box, where the bottom meets the walls. Did we not do that, or does it get done automatically somehow during the extrude, or when the other ones are done? I am going to make a couple of boxes on my own, different shapes, and make them Parametric! That should give me some good practice and engrain both processes in my brain! No reason why it has to be a 'normal' shape... I could make it the same shape as the part in Lesson 8 on improving sketches. I might try to make a box for my caliper, or something...! Resess holes for magnets for the lid? I am going to practice a bit before I move on. I originally found you from a search trying to find how to add motion to my parts. I wanted to make a knob turn. I decided to start at the beginning of your lessons, rather than jump right in to the middle. I am glad I did! You are really helping me increase both my skills, and confidence! Thank you again!

    After following this tutorial several times and not being able to join the screws I discovered that I had left the lid sketch on so that I could not select the second joint. The whole lid was turning blue and not allowing me to select the joint that I needed to select. Once I turned off the sketch it was a breeze. I learned a great deal from this model. One question I had was when I export this part to make a 3d print will it export all three pieces together or should i dissemble the model and export them that way?

    Amazing job! You are working through the steps and troubleshooting yourself. As for the 3D printing, you will need to export the box and lid as separate STL files and then load those files into your 3D print file. You can print them in the same job, but I would suggest separating them on the print platform for sure.

With an simple modeled tapped hole, it will select the center point no problem, however, with a modeled tapped hole, there is no longer a center point that is easy to find. That is because the threads create many new points that are off-center. Let me know what happens when you create a modeled tapped hole.

    I have a problem with the lid. When I try to extract it to get the lid, I only have the outline that works and the center is always empty (I can't select the second profile). Otherwise, I can't find my error.

    Make sure to create a sketch on the top face of you box. Once you do, it inherits all the geometry of your box, including the inside space. Then you should be able to pick both.

    @@learnitalready I've rewatched the video at least 5 times and I still come up with the same problem. At minute 17:52 (sketch), I do the same as you, selected top face between the two lines. Finally during the extrude step, I arrive with the same situation. It like doesn't inherits all the geometry.

    So.... how come when I do it, when I extrude the walls, I can't then select the base to extrude it, or vice versa. If I extrude the base, I then can't select the wall to extrude it?? Other than that, great turtorial(s)!

    Thanks for your comment. Based on what I can imagine is happening in your case, you may have to make sure that your sketch is visible. Once you extrude a profile, that sketch is hidden. You need to make it visible again to extrude another profile. Another solution might be: say you’ve just extruded the walls. You will need to create another sketch on the bottom face of those walls and then finish your sketch (you don’t need to actually sketch anything, just create a sketch, select the bottom face of the walls, and then finish your sketch). That should inherit all the profiles of your walls, in which case you should be able to extrude the inside, bottom section of your box. Let me know if that works.

    @@learnitalready DUH!! I guess I should pay a little bit closer attention! As you mentioned, I had selected the sketch, but I simply had not clicked the "eye" on the sketch to make it visible again.... Thanks so much for the quick reply and for the great work you're doing here. Awesome tuts! 👍 btw.... one thing I would like to see... the best way to create a box that is an Isosceles trapezoid. I did manage to make one the other day, but it took me forever. There must be a quicker way to do this. Thanks again for the great tutorials.

    Thanks for your comment and support. Good catch about the inside bottom edges! Regarding modeling the threads, I went back and forth whether or not I wanted to include it in this tutorial, and decided not to just to keep it simple for new learners. In a future video I will include it when talking about design principles with 3D printing. Thanks again for your comment! Stay tuned for more.
