This video is exactly what i was needing. I've had fusion about 3 months and i'm new to 3D machining so thank you, thank you, thank you! Keep them coming!

The are two guys on youtube that I've learned most from - John from Sanders Machine Works (NYC CNC) and Lars Christensen. They are amazing teachers! I love to listen to them when solving some problems. THANK YOU!

Fantastic video- as usual! Lars, we miss you all!

Thank you so much Lars. I have just followed along and created this box as part of my personal training. Your videos are invaluable in learning this subject. Having such a high number of subscribers is proof you are great!

Great video! Thanks :)

just started comparable jobs and used this tutorial as a good repetition plus some new tricks.

Great video Lars. I found it to be one of the more clear and concise videos regarding this subject in Fusion. The added road trip definitely made for a more interesting production as well!

The best explanation I have ever watched.I don't even notice myself how the video end. Thanks 🙏

Thanks. I have been waiting for some 3d cam machine videos. Good intro. Looking forward to more.

Great stuff Lars. I'm glad you made a methodical process for Fusion 360 users to follow. Thinking back to when I first started using CAM; a tutorial like this would have been invaluable,

"avoid surfaces" : this keeps getting better and better!

I wish this video came out weeks ago! I finally figured it out, but this video is awesome anyway!!!

Hello Lars, Thanks for this clear explanation, it's the best explanation about 3D I could ever watch. Greetings from Antwerpen/Belgium

Great tutorial. Excellent communication skills.

Brilliantly made video. The information is useful and relevant, the pace is spot on, and nothing is unnecessarily repeated (lengthening the video and making it hard to search through when going back to review it). On top of all this, I really enjoyed your approach to describing the various ways you can go about achieving similar 3D toolpaths. It makes it much easier to apply the lessons here to my own parts than if only one type of method had been described (ie. teaching about parallel only vs. contour only). Happy to be a new subscriber.

I made it through and it's a great start-to-finish series. I learned a lot. But I did get stuck a few times because this video is a few years old and Autodesk have changed around a few controls. It had to do a bit of experimenting to work out a few of the steps in the current version.

Great explanations of how and why. I get so much out of these videos. I credit you with m ost of what I do know about Fusion 360. Keep up the great informational videos. Especially for Fusion 360 on the CAM side.

Great job! Thanks for taking the time to explain in detail the power of this software. I'm a complete newbie to cad/cam and CNC machining.

Some great tips there at the end Lars. Thanks.

Great,Lars Every vid you madei learn a ton new things especially in cam. Thanks a lot for this.

Superb presentation - like a Million Dollars worth of info presented here! It would be very interesting to see some actual pictures of how these CAM surfacing strategies actually *look* when applied to a typical piece like aluminum. I will be cutting molds on a PCNC1100 soon.

Lars, This is a good example and helped me solve a problem I was having. What would be more realistic is multiple operations like roughing and finishing. How Fusion deals with and cleans up the material left from a previous operation on this surface model.

Humanity needs more of this, good work!

"contact boundary" selection, that's a great tool. Thx.

Nice work Lars.....perfect for those 0500 Saturday Morning self-paced coffee & learning sessions 👍👍😂😂😎😎💪💪, especially to have playing while programming a part ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2:33 it's your wife's car :D anyway you are AMAZING teacher

Great lesson, specially last one tip off scallup toolpath!! Thnx again!!!

Thanks Lars, Very good 3d machining.

Thanks Lars for your good explanation 🖒

Thanks a lot! Really creative delivery and patient explanation.

awesome ... exactly what i was looking for ..

Nice drive around Batavia! Plus I learned a lot about controlling 3D toolpath generation.

Nicely done Lars, very informative. I know you are on a break now, but make sure you come back and continue these.

That was great! I could of used this two weeks ago! I managed to machine my parts after many hours of clicking wondering what it wasn't doing what I thought it should....lol

Thank You ! Great Instructor!

Wow another great tutorial, and another skill i learned

Thanks Lars! Another very helpful video from the best. Keep up the great work! -Jacob S.

great tutorial Lars !

Haha "with greater happiness"! Love your videos!

Hey Lars, thanks for the videos in general. Coming from 3D printing, I was watching your vids about F360. Now, that I am going into CAM/CNC, I was hoping that you have made some vids for that.... This video brought a huge improvement of knowledge to me :-) Brilliant as always Greet from Germany

Hi Lars, i like the way you teach. I am completely new to fusion 360 and i watch some of your basic 3d machining with parallel and scallop and i think it would help very much if you start with the sketch even if it is done in a quick manner and then keep going with the CAM part of it. Maybe i missed the sketching part video. Thank you. Great teacher.

Thanks Lars, as ever you got me off to a great start. You are to thank for my progress.

You are making this very understandable to learn. Thank you so much. I will have to watch many more videos and much practice before I am accomplished though. I look forward to your other videos.

WONDERFUL INFORMATION DO MAKE MORE 3D CAM VIDEO

This is so cool!!! Thanks for another great video Lars. You make it look so easy. I can't wait to try this stuff out.

Amazing christen. I love your teaching style.

from iraq, thank you lars for good job, i really appreciate Your effort is well.

Thanks Lars.

Awesome tutorial, Lars!

Great explanation Lars!

Fantastic tutorial very helpful thank you 👍

Thank you so much for this video... The information you deliver is awesome

Thank you so much for educating us. I am learning a lot. I also love your way of presentation. Cheerful, professional and interesting. Just a suggestion from a committed beginner. It would be great if you could repackage your content and make a separate playlist progressing from absolute beginner all the way to pro (or whatever level you can teach). I often get lost between youtube suggestions and your cross references (I NEVER LAND ON PART ONE OF ANYTHING) That would be such a help.

Great video! Very helpful tip regarding the scallop collapse from the adjusted sketch. Been trying to figure out how to get our CNC to route custom radii and profile moldings, but many of the videos available didn't describe isolating surfaces. Well done, and thank you!

Thanks man... it's really interesting, especially in the end

Very good video ! Congratulations ! Greetings from Argentina !

That was exactly what I was looking for, and I have been looking for quite a while :-(

Great video. Thanks.

Is useful for me

We need a tutorial on how to narrate while driving

You are The Best

Thanks Lars just got my free book.

Amazing tricks and tips

Amazing, thanks for all the videos. I wanna know if u can help with a project, I need I couple of ideas because I don't know where start, it's a door with a kind of louver inside

Helpful trick, thanks LARS,

Fantastic!

man,you are awesome...thank you very,very much

I m shashi from India. I like your teaching way.

Nice Video! Awesome. I only have a question, in the moments that you´re manufacturing and after the process keeps a little material in the boundaries, what tool do you recommend using? Thanks!!

Great tutorial! Thanks :)

Very helpful. Thanks, Lars

Great work

yes, first comment :-) Great job!

Lars, you make so many great videos, but it is hard to have an overview of what you have done. I have a subsupplier that when a part needs to be machined in 4 setups, actually make four different inventor files. I assume that it should be possible to keep four setups and their associated operations in one Fusion 360 file. This is a great video for explaining the path choices. Do you have one that show how to ex. setup and mill the 6 faces of a 3D part, and how to design the file structure.

Lars, Thank you for taking the time to put these videos together. I have completed my first design and converted to CAM and added the toolpaths also. How do I mill the whole design without cutting into the vise or table on the mill? How do I secure the stock and cut all the way through without running into this problem?

Awesome bro keep it up

Love the driving around and narrating ... Awesome!

Lots of useful news on 3D CAM here! Tere's no fake news here. ;-) Re: Adaptive clearing. Is that more useful for serial production, prototyping or both?

Thanks for this valuable tutorial. I've subscribed to your channel and have watched nearly all the videos. Nicely done! One place I am struggling is in the transition from conceptual modeling to milling. For example I have a slab of 1/2" 6061 aluminum that I know I will produce all of my assembly with. I've generated the model, ensuring joint motion and collision issues have been resolved. The model contains screws and bearings that are part of the assembly but obviously not the milling process. Now I want to basically decompose the model and nest all my machinable components, hopefully in a single operation from the single piece of stock. What is the best way to make this transition? Create multiple models? I hope I've explained my situation with enough detail for you to understand. I live in upstate NY too and using the snowy nights to learn Fusion after clearing out the driveway. Thanks again and stay warm!

Thanks Lars, this video is worth gold. As usual an easy teaching style that doesnt tie your noodle in knots. One question being new to Cam / Cnc. Leading on from your great tip about increasing the offset size to smooth out the scalloping operation. Is there a general rule(s) on ratios etc on how much larger your physical stock should be in relation to your actual model size particularly if you are working with organic forms with complex steep and sweeping surfaces ?

This was really good! A great start to understanding mach area of the tool. Thanks!

Hi bud hows it going, just a quick question, as you know i have a home made cnc mill and started to use Fusion 360, So when i complete the drawing and want to send the file over to the machine my operating software is Mach 3 will i be able to do that ?

Great Video :)

I would like to hide or delete all tool libraries except my own defined ones. Every time I open the tool dialog I have to make a few annoying clicks. Is there a way to delete predefined tools or is it your cloud policy to force customers by annoying methods to specific suppliers?!

Hi Lars, thank you for a great video, I have a question regarding on milling a part with 2 faces . Can you mill one face then rotate the part at 90 degree and mill the other face because this part has 2 faces adjacent to each other. I have seen a milling machine with 5 axis it can be done with one continuous milling. If you can make a video about that it would be great. thank you

So the content was excellent. The inside of your car was way too dark. It was a talking silhouette and the car examples were more of a distraction than explanatory. I can see why you did that, to change up the usual screen images as is always done but I can tell you after seeing this once and using it as a reference video, they will get really really annoying. However the content was so good that it over came the other elements. Thank you very much. Keep trying on the goody ideas, eventually you will do this really well, just ask for some feedback from the team to assist with some outside perspective.

Hey Lars, which are the actual capabilities in fusion 360 for 5 axis machining?, I know that exist swarf and contour but I want to machine an impelller but I dont know if is posible with the actual functionalities?

please make video on rest of 3D toolpaths

Lars, you may have answered this here or elsewhere already, so I apologize if I take up your time unnecessarily. When I use Fusion 360 in order to estimate machining cycle times I find that the calculated time shown under the "Simulate" tab is significantly different than the one shown when a setup sheet is produced. Can you explain why and which I should treat as closer to accurate? Thanks!

GRACIAS !!!!!!

What is the best video to watch to better understand expressions in fusion 360

So, hey. If we were doing a mold for this part, and wanted to use 3 tools to do it, how would that be done? Say. 3/4" rough, 1/2 Second rough, and 1/4" ball finish? I am going crazy trying. # pocket cycles? Or, 1 pocket cycle, 3 tools??? I can't figure it out. Thanks! Mark

Thanks a lot. By the way in english subtitles your name is Last Christmas

Have you planned a 5 axis fusion360 tutorial?, I mean 3+2 or simultaneous 5 axis.

Hej Lars. I followed your video on cam to the point where F360 was supposed to create toolpath. I get an error code "cannot link" or something like that. Toolpath is empty. I'm a woodworker and am trying to engrave a Japanese letter in wood.

Hi Lars. Mastercam, Solidcam, Fushion 360 or Autodesk HSM . which is better for 3D milling and 5-axis program? Thanks

SIR CAN U MAKE MORE 3D CAM VIDEO

I appreciate the info that you have provided here, Lars, but the fact that this video doesn't address in any meaningful way roughing and finishing operations and how to set them up properly leaves me the same questions I had when starting the video, and 26:06 less time to do so. This seems such a fundamental topic to cover - i.e. it's not just about picking the right tool path - it's also the settings for that tool path(s). Also, while the car analogy was an attempt to add a little fun, it's a bit of a stretch. All this said, I did learn some valuable things here and appreciate the effort that goes into these videos.

Thanks! A great video, even though driving around and talking about CAM was a little confusing. Here's the REAL QUESTION? Did you get your wife's permission to take her car???

Lars hi. I have an 5 axis machine, and tried to find the way to set a RTCP (Rotation about tool center point) on Fusion 360. Is this possible? I don't wanna came out from Fusion to another software to do that, because Fusion is ideal for me, whole package on one place, parametric modeling, simulation, cam, render and drawings. Hope if Fusion can't handle 5 axis yet, do it in the near future.
