Super helpful. Thank you. I loved seeing the handle workflow and the steps involved in creating the handle geometry.

I have almost no experience in the sculpt/form tab. I didn't even know where to begin. This tutorial is the clearest and most concise demonstration of working in the sculpt environment I have seen. I have bookmarked this in my history so I can refer back to it.

Yes! More examples exhibiting different uses of the workflow. Thank Kevin!

Another great surface tutorial. Please keep making the intermediate tutorials as its the only way to learn new tools.

This is so incredibly good for learning. You have a gift. All my thumbs up.

Please make more of these, your tutorials are great!! I'm almost done witht the Learn F360 in 30 days, and I want to go heavy on surfaces. Thanks!

Hi, yes. This is much better. I have had difficulties with some of your videos because although they cover great topics and are full of really good information, getting that information takes so long when every little detail is described. I have found them a little bit frustrating. I also find describing the steps in detail before doing them is also a bit of a problem as it doesn't mean much to me before I see the results. However, you clearly have a great deal of knowledge to share and a fantastic delivery style so this new approach makes you much more accessible for me. Thanks for the great work.

Nice tutorial. I would like to see tutorials on how to make gun parts like pistol grip with beautiful curvature on it as well.

Thanks for video, my problem I always have is when you want to edit the original sketches to create the surfaces. Do a video of editing the sketches because every time I try it the projected geometry never stays constrained. Would love to have seen you add the extra planes at the end you mentioned to refine the shape.

definitely yes!!

Really nice video. Boundary fill could be very useful.

@ProductDesignOnline

Hi, Michael. Is the scan a mesh file?

@michaelbrown-qe8cr

4 жыл бұрын

@Kevin. Initially it is a scanned mesh. Hi converted it to a BRep file. Tried various options such as tracing the outline with the PIPE spline and that created a nice contour, but then could not loft to the pipe. Another option was to offset a plane, extrude a circle or square to encapsulate the mesh, then use COMBINE / CUT to create a parting line as a new body and delete one of the bodies I do not need that extend beyond the scanned BREP body. The task is very tedious and wondering if there is a more simplified workflow. I’ll be glad to arrange a GOTO meeting with you offline to further discuss the scope if you like. (Mbrown@alliance-PCB.com)

@ProductDesignOnline

4 жыл бұрын

@@michaelbrown-qe8cr One option would be to use the "Project to Surface" command or "Project" command to take the pipe geometry and turn it into a 2D sketch that could be used with your Loft feature. Scanned files are tricky in Fusion 360 because they always mesh files. Converted files often have a high number of triangular mesh data which makes it hard to reference without simply recreating the shape/mimicking it.

Yes i love it

Can you tell how will we add switches and other necessary details to the body?

Over my head like a trapeze act! Back to the beginner stuff but interesting to see what I might do with a bit (or a lot) more training!

Hey, I've been watching your videos for the past few days, been watching mostly loft, sweep and surface modelling tutorials. Can you help me with a particular challenge I'm facing? I need to make a winglet for an airplane I'm designing. It needs to be a curved winglet (using spline tool with 3 points) as the guide rail and the wingtip airfoil as one sketch profile and the winglet tip as another sketch profile. It always shows error. Please just make a small video of how to be able to do it. Thanks in advance

Hi, Bobos Curse. I'm using the "Marking Menu". If you right-click with your mouse you can take a look at all of the actions. However, the intent of the marking menu is that you drag the mouse as you right-click, to quickly activate the desired command (you have to remember location of things). In this case, I was dragging my mouse cursor (while right-clicking) straight down to activate the sketch commands and then straight to the right to activate the Fit Point Spline. In a lot of my beginner tutorials I reference the options in the "right-click menu". In these overview or more intermediate/advacned tutorials I'm starting to show how efficient it can be. Cheers, Kevin :)

which one is better mesh or surface? reall confused...help

I wish you could explain the beginning part that you don't show. The rest of the video is simple, but I can't for the life of me get the surface loft to work with the geometry I sketched. I have no I idea what I'm doing wrong. Do you have a video explaining how you did the first steps?
