Out of the top 5 videos I saw for this program yours was by far the most thorough. You explained the controls themselves which is what was tripping me up. The other guys would jump right in to "Ok let make this object." They would briefly describe projects, and how to save your file, but wouldn't describe the controls themselves. Thank you for breaking this down and being thorough.

Agreed. "Make the object" is useless if you don't know how to first navigate its canvas.

I am SO glad to see you've refreshed your "Beginner" videos ... which was great (the best, actually) for getting me started many years ago. Since I haven't been using Fusion for awhile, this is the perfect refresher for me, so a hearty "Thanks".

I am positively impressed and grateful for your willingness to help rookies like me understand the intricacies of Fusion 360. Very well presented and easy to follow. 👍

This is one of the most detailed and basid, easy to understand for dummies tutorial. Subscribed and liked.

Hi everyone! Let me know if you have any questions about this video in the comments below! :)

I don't comment on videos often, but I have to say - this tutorial was amazing. Crystal clear, straight to the point but also not skipping over details. I am so happy to have found your videos and I will be going over your Fusion 360 beginner playlist over the next several days to learn the basics and hopefully start designing my own models for 3D printing!

Your tutorials on CG Essentials were always my go-to resource when learning Blender. Now that I'm getting into 3d printing, Fusion 360 comes highly recommended as a modeling tool. So, I was so pleased to stumble onto these tutorials for Fusion. Your manner of presenting concepts in a clear, understandable way is great. Keep up the great work.

Glad I've been able to help! I actually really like Fusion for maker style modeling like this - super powerful tool! :)

This is the best introductory video on Fusion 360 that I've found. I've been manhandling Tinkercad for the last 5 years and decided to join the big kids with Fusion 360. This video helped a TON. Thank you!

You have saved me so much time. I'm new to Fusion and trying to create my own projects for 3D printing. This has been a life and time saver for me for making useful and simple things. Thank you sir. Liked and subscribed.

By far the best tutorial for beginners in Fusion 360 I came across on KZread. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, Thank you so much. I am an AutoCAD and Solid Works guy, I've always had a "mental block" to learning Fusion 360. This video has certainly removed the entry level barrier for me.

Hey Justin, thank you for providing free access and indexing such great education. Your earlier vidoes were some of the only useful Fusion videos I could find for many years as a beginner,

I so much enjoyed this part 1. I have tried other tutorials and constantly got lost. I appreciate you going into the more detail of what you click on etc. I did have a problem following you in one part, the dowel. After many failures, I finally got it to work but I don't understand how. I guess what I don't understand is how you selected the hole (circle). I hope you can clear that up for me or direct me to where I could get a better understanding of this. You have the best instruction I have yet found and I plan to stay with you as my primary instructional video. Thanks

It took me a few minutes of playing around to figure out what happened here too. At 14:27 he sets Sketch1 to visible. Once you do that, the middle of the circle will become selectable and you can use the extrusion tool like he shows at 19:10.

Great timing on starting this series, I'm just getting started in Fusion 360, so thank you! Could you do a future video on making boxes with finger joints and how to deal with the Kerf? Also any design help with other laser cut projects.

Your videos are always so simple to understand. Thank you!

You just convinced me to use Fusion 360 for my modeling hobby. I have been using AutoCAD LT for 20 years as a commercial foodservice designer, so Fusion 360 has similar operations and processes. I will be downloading the program and then following your fine tutorial.

just started mechanical drafting this semester so this is perfect thanks

Hey just wanted to say thank you for the content. I watched one of your other series' to get started about a month ago when i got into 3d printing and making functional prints. It helped alot to follow your content.

super smooth video. the mouse action was far superior than that of some other crash courses. well done thanks

Amazing thank you!

I have completely maxed out tinkercad's capabilities and I am finally sitting down and learning fusion360. This was amazingly helpful and I am kicking myself for not jumping ship sooner!

Great video, at first fusion does not seem intuitive at all, but I think with just watching the first video of yours , it does become more intuitive. So hopefully by binge watching your videos, while doing it on my laptop, I’ll be able to make some simple objects for my 3d printer 🙏🏻

thank you this helped me make my first project

Outstanding video. Very clearly explained. I love it. Thanks for sharing.

That was a good video. I'm happy you made it. Something I learnt from this video: Zoom out

Great tutorial for a newbie! Easy to understand, well explainend! Looking forward to more videos from you

Fyi, make sure you dont deselect your sketch for the circle so you can extrude it. I did and was losing my mind trying to figure it out

THANK YOU! I have been thinking of starting to learn this for hobby projects, and have been frustrated until now. I use a Cricut, and the software is very similar to Windows....but fusion is a more professional tool that needs some work. I sat, watched and have been able to create what I want to draw, well started to anyway.

Thank you

Great simple intro tutorial.

Excellent tutorial

Really great video for a beginner like me, you explain really well!

Really great video, it's helped a lot in taking the first steps into starting to use the software. Can I ask, when extruding you mention to change the default operation from 'join' to 'new body' is this to ensure that you have control over editing the individual elements in future? or is it more difficult to edit 'joined' geometry? - Are you able to change these defaults to your own preferences? Thank you :)

Wonderful as always! Greetings from Eastern Arabia 🎉

I've tried a few other tutorials and felt like they were missing steps or not explaining what just happened. Frustrating. This? I learned more in the first 15 minutes than in all the other tutorials I tried. Thanks for such a great product!

Awesome 🤩😍

Thanks for the tutorial. I could not extrude the handle and the shift key does not work to enter orbit mode.

Great tutorial. I am trying find a good program to start with. I am a 3D printer and want to design my own designs, without depending on Thingiverse which i can find a object that suites my purpose. Love how you walkthrough the steps. Thank you

great video

Great instructional video! I do have one question. I have a 4k monitor and the grid lines are hard to see. In prefs under drawing I maxed out the setting but no decernable difference, am I missing something to get darker grid lines? thanks again for you support.

Keep them coming. I'm a sponge. I think the main issue I have with Fusion is that its hard to understand how intuitive it is. I overthink the the things i need to do to get what I want. I come from old cad/cam software.

You save my life

Its good to see your back, fusion 360 has the add on Nifty dog bone, are you planning any future vids using such addons as this would be good as a project to laser cut parts and assemble etc.

Thanks for the great tutorial. I was only having one small issue. When i go to create the dowel and extrude it, its extruding the entire top all of the way across and not just the circle even though i only have the circle selected..

Cool job, man, thanks for restarting the series about the Fusion 360. And hey, if may I ask - could you recomment the best way how to work with F360 from the step review perspective? Meaning - I could "hard code" measurements of an object, but through the parameters in project I could just call the parameter and in case of a change, I can just change it in there and I don't need to go step by step in the timeline to change it. Hope it makes sense. I am kind of interested in those features and hints.

@TheFusionEssentials

8 ай бұрын

Yup - this is something I'm interested in learning more about anyway - I've really only done this the manual way, but I know there's a lot more power under the hood for this kind of thing

Thanks for these videos. When I move/copy a body it only follows the grid. it doesn't align with the other body if that body is not aligned with the grid

I agree and support all the compliments said by others in their comm and I have some questions: you said to always select New Body and not Join. What is the reason for that? Is it specific to this project only? I, for e.g., need to make an enclosure (box + lid) for 3D printing with different material and/or vacuum casting. When is it ok to join the sketches?

hello sir, which one do you recommend for woodworkers - Sketchup or Fusion 360 ?

Great content. You make it easy to understand. I am just getting going with using Fusion 360 for my woodworking and am in the market now for an X Carve Pro. Do you or will you have any content on how to go from Fusion 360 into Easel Pro so I can cut on an X Carve Pro? Thanks in advance.

Sorry I guess?

so this is like auto-cad but have simulations and animate ur object or subject?

This Might be me getting ahead of myself. And maybe you did it this way to show the tools better. But I found once I had one wall and one side I merged the two objects and them duplicated them and rotated them/moved them until they moved into each other such that I mirrored the shape and had both sides and the front and the back. Is there a reason not to do this?

I don't understand why my extrude command gives me an arrow opposite from yours. To extrude in the same direction, front to back, I put a negative before the distance. Not on all the extrudes, just the ones on the first part, the first end piece and later the dowel.

So if I were to 3D print this myself, would I need to create each part into its own component so that I can just easily assemble each part together once each part is done printing?

At 17:09 this method is creating that side that's selected to be slightly offset on the side of the front, and there's no way to move it into position, well for a noob like me. Is there a way to move the wall into position again? I'm doing this with mm and not inches

Thanks for the amazing introductory tutorial. Do you have a paid Fusion 360 course that we could enroll in?

Is there a video on working with mesh objects?

Trying to work through this. When sketching the side of the box from the back of the first side, no matter whether I start at the top of the bottom, when I go to place a third or final point, the cursor changes to a hand and tells me to Click To change Sketch Plane .. which of course messes everything up! Can you please explain what is happening? Thanks.

Helpful, however the first stumble was not showing how to change the default metric measurements to imperial.

this is so easy to understand. tons of thanks

Got all the way to the extrude dowel and cant select it... i've lost the little dot thing in the middle of the circle...help!

Hopefully, you figured it out by now, but in case you didn't: Go to your left side that lists all the sketches, select 'Sketch1'. On the left side, there is what looks like a little eye. You need to click on that to make the sketch visible and then you'll see the center dot in the middle of the hole. Hope that helps. Hutch

@@TheFusionEssentials Thank you for the reply, but that's not what I meant. It's just so complicated to try to keep up with inches and feet; you don't really get a sense of the size. But thanks, otherwise, really good videos.

The center point of your plain is not in the center of your screen, when I follow these directions mine is. The problem is that when I start sketching I run out of real-estate very quickly because it's running off screen. I can't seem to move the plain around like in Tinkercad. What setting to I need to adjust to have my center point offset like yours?
