In this video we are going to tackle a question that came in from the Surface Mastery series about how to model this fan blade more accurately. The user has a nice video on modeling this and the model is available for download from GrabCad. Check out their video here as well as a link to GrabCAD • Modeling a PC fan - be...
If you want to follow along with me I have isolated the hub and blade as a starting point here a360.co/3GsnxoT
We are going to take a look at how complicated this would be using surfaces and then show how easy it is using Forms. While forms aren't always the solution in this case you could save HOURS of time by using them for just a few minutes.

One of the greatest lesson learned during your tutorials is when to use the right tool. Solids vs surface vs forms. The best feature of Fusion modelling for me is the ability to work in and out of all three. In the past the inability or difficulty of merging or combining at the end narrowed my options in design. Thanks for unlocking it. Great video Matt.

Yahh.. That's power of Form, it's something that surprised me with the true ability of the Fusion 360 to learn and play around with it. Cheers! like-minded friends and happy new year.

Great video! Wondering how you would approach matching the curve of the raised areas to the curves of the outside edge, so more in line with the rotational movement?

@LearnEverythingAboutDesign 3 ай бұрын

Thanks! Really you would just need to make sure the edges on the from line up how you want them to. It is a bit trickier because the edges in a form are guiding the curvature and not exact like they are for say a sketch/surface.

Converting a BREP that required some specific dimensions to create to a T Spline for some “value-added” shaping is a really great work flow to keep mind.

Agree! The direct modeling nuance of this type of approach is also a good one. if you turn off design history the forms and the solid and surface exist at the same time. So you can convert back and forth while retaining the form body.

@@LearnEverythingAboutDesign turning off the design history is something occasionally mentioned but, TBH, I’ve never grasped the significance of it. But what you said here has given me a clue.

I need to play with forms more. I never really leave the solid tab.

If you ever need organic shapes it can save a ton of time..... if you are patient!!!

Would replace face work

@LearnEverythingAboutDesign Жыл бұрын

Sadly in this case it didn't. It needs to extend the original face out normal until it hits the new face and it trouble with the converted form. But definitely a good option to try!
