Lars, I’m “down the road” a bit as far as using Fusion 360. (not absolute beginner, not a pro)...but for me...that is the MOST HELPFUL video of your I have seen so far! It brings so many things together in one video! Thanks!

I come from 8 years with sketchup and finding a small learning curve. The lessons your provide are wonderful. I am very thankful for all the help you are providing and I am learning a lot about this program. I would like to point out a needed for a design change in this tool box. As the bottom will fall off after it is used for a while from a lack of support. The ends should extend to the bottom and connect to the bottom board from the out side, not upwards. Same for the side boards to keep the bottom from warping as pressure will be greatest on the bottom. Oh, I would not use plywood.

This was a great tutorial. I have watched a number of them and this one covered a lot regarding the philosophy behind setting up the sketch and the process for constraining. Jimmy Diresta mentioned you the Making It podcast at some point. That is when I first started following you.

I don't feel sad, but very thankful for all the videos created, 200?, which are very useful. It takes a lot of time creating and editing, and often there comes a time one want to move on to focus at other tasks. Many thanks to Lars taking his time sharing all this knowledge.

The only thing I would change in this tutorial would be to use your material thickness (12mm) as a parameter. You used 12mm in multiple instances so updating the model with a new thickness would then be faster. That way, if you find yourself with a different sheet thickness in your workshop, then you can update your model easily by changing a single parameter.

Thank you for this lesson. I am maybe an intermediate modeler with Fusion 360, and because I've learned by experimentation and videos like yours, I find I am missing a lot of these professional methods of taking advantage of parametric features for later modifications (which I always need). This is very helpful, and I am looking well forward to your next video where you mentioned setting these components flat to prepare for CNC cutting. Thanks for all you do Lars!

I imagine that you figured out why the dimension on your sides changed from 53 to 41, but, just in case you haven't: It's because of the -12 that occurs when you use Combine: cut to shorten the sides.

@wolfsfarm7667 3 жыл бұрын

one more idea....if you put the bottom inside the box and not underneath it looks nicer because you do not see the edges from the plywood - and from a static point of view it is more stable since the nails (brad gun) can not be pulled out downwards if the box contains very heavy tools and the glue fails...(ok, quite unlikely but I am german ;-)

Thank you - can we make a BOM from the drawing? I would make the glue up differently. Take your bottom and one side and one front piece, put on glue and secure it with the brad gun. Using the bottom ensures the right angle. Due to the brad gun you do not need any clamps and you can continue working (like sanding etc.) instantly - no need to wait for the glue to dry. If you do not like the looks of the nails - sink them and hide'm with wood putty.

Hi Lars. Is there a reson you used mirror instead of circular pattern with 2 copies and 180 degree?? In my mind it would be better in the drawing, because then you get told that you have at quantity of 2 for the side and end plates

At the 24:15 mark, we have three sketches with the Top sketch and what would be the front sketch being fully defined and showing the little red padlock, but the middle sketch (right side sketch) only shows the pencil, but with no blue lines that I can see. What's the deal here?

Thanks Lars! If you watch Woodgears (Matthias Wandel) he would print each part on paper at 1:1 scale. Then glue it onto the wood with a glue stick and easily cut each part out. No measuring! How would I do that 1:1 sketch with fusion?

@tjaeder 3 жыл бұрын

38:40 you need to need to choose the sheet size that's large enough for your design. 39:05 you can choose the scale you want. Now you just need a printer that can print your choice of paper size. :)

I keep learning excellent techniques by watching your videos. In this one, the way you did all the sketches up front and keeping them in the center was a bit of a twist for me. One challenge I have is adding dados. It makes the sketches and the combine methods more challenging. Do you have any insights? Thank you.

@@cadcamstuff Thank you. The video did help. I am now into dove tails :-). I see the value in a hierarchical (sub assembly) method in which sub assemblies use the projection. One challenge I have are parameters do not cascade into sub-assemblies (unless I use the import/export plug-in , but that is very kludgey). I wish there was a way to link to parameters from the parent of the sub-assembly...or link in general the way I can a spreadsheet within a (google/word) document. So that parent parameters can be used in child assemblies instead of strictly relying on projections of parent components/bodies.

@happyday.mjohnson 3 жыл бұрын

note: perhaps (user) parameter linking is more interesting in woodworking than in mechanical parts - which it appears to me F360 favors given.

I recently purchased an Asus Vivobook 15 with a 10th gen i3, 8gb ram and solid state drive. About $330 on sale. I haven't used it much with Fusion 360 but it seemed to run it fine. Before I was using a 5 year old Acer Aspire with an i7.
