Lars, I've just recently started using Fusion360 and your videos have helped me a lot! Instead of getting overwhelmed, I have benefited from your wisdom in guiding me on what to focus on as a Fusion360 n00b. Plus you are a great teacher! Thank you!

I am so new at this that it has taken me 2 days to draw the first part of a GEAR PULLER. I am now hung up on changing the shape of a solid. I hope I find the answer soon. I appreciate your tutorials a lot, they are clear, concise and to the point. Thank you professor.

hallo Lars I like the vids a lot to help me to get started in (con)fusion 360. I am not the fawtest when it comes to learning drafting programs, therefor I really appreciate your efforts. one thing that would help me even more , if you could highlight the cursor so it is easier to follow its movements on the screen. Thanks again for your great work!

Your videos helped me get started with 360. One question: what is the difference between extrude and press/pull? When to use one or the other?

@cadcamstuff 7 жыл бұрын

Hi Mike, Just use press/pull. You will see that the command turns into extrude when adding material. The only real difference is that the press/pull can also add radius. Have an awesome day!

Hi Roger, Thank you for taking the time to comment. That is a great question that I do not know the answer to.It seems like they are acting the same. I have asked one of the Fusion experts, and will let you know what I find out. :-) Have an awesome weekend!

Hi Lars, love your tutorials and how you explain and teach everything in detail. I have just started using Fusion 360 and I'm using MacBook Pro. Before Fusion 360 i was using Sketchup and am quite used to few shortcut keys for Panning and Orbit. Can you tell me what keys along with mouse i can use to Pan and Orbit while still staying within the election?

@garyspyder Жыл бұрын

Hi Lars, do you have video on how to move/rotate by construction plane which is the first thing to know before starting sketches. Videos I've seen always start at blank or new which easier to get but when you upload a solid file it turns confusing on object/sketch rotation or selection of entities need to move or translate in one command.

@johanpais28 7 жыл бұрын

Hi Lars, I really like your tutorial videos. Much appreciation for the effort! I can't seem to find a Fusion 360 video on bevel gears and meshing bevel gears, have you done one? or does it get into nuclear science? would love a basic tutorial on gears and bevel gears. Also enabling contact in gears for some reason does not work....is it something i'm doing wrong?

@Dougout92 7 жыл бұрын

Enjoy your training videos. Have you taught a lesson regarding slicing an object and transfering the slices to a DFX file where I can either cut the slices out on my laser or CNC Plasma cutter? I would then assemble wood or metal slices to a "Stacked" object.

Reset view - nice to see that features is there, rather than rotating whole model, but I want my front to be bottom - it only offers front or top? (My files always come out wrong way when loading STL into my slicer )

Preferences - general - Z-up rather than Y-up. (Just found that out yesterday)

Hi Lars, Is there a specific reason Fusion does not allow custom keyboard shortcuts? I can't understand how such a powerful application doesnt allow such a basic funcitonality. Sorry I'm new to fusion and it blows my mind!

hi lars, your videos are so helpfull to me, i have a one question, can you export geometry from fusion 360 to inventor ? if the answer is yes, how i do ? (sorry for my "english", is not my mother tongue) thanks !!!

Hi Julio, First do not apologize! Your English is great!! Yes, you can export your Fusion model to Inventor. Check out the first 3 minutes of this video and you should be all set kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gbt2ksaiq9zYYWw.html Let me know if you have any other questions. Have an awesome day!

Great tips. Thanks! I noticed recently I'm unable to use the midpoint (x) of a line when assigning constraints. Do you have any insight as to why this disappeared?

@cadcamstuff 8 жыл бұрын

Interesting!! I have Midpoint constrains available. Can you invite me to one of your projects where this is the case? lars@cadcamstuff.com

@jfpinkston1 8 жыл бұрын

+Lars Christensen I can invite you later today, but it occurs consistently in any project. I'm beginning to wonder if this is a result of my recent upgrade to Windows 10... Just to be clear, the midpoint constraint is available. The midpoint of a line is what no longer appears. I frequently use the line midpoint to apply horizon/vert constraints and the midpoint "x" point no longer appears.

@johnpinkston6885 8 жыл бұрын

I posed this question to Taylor Stein in his recent tips video as well. Apparently, after the most recent update, the midpoint "x" is still available, but you must hold down shift to make it visible. Thanks for your great videos!

Hi Lars @6:14, i tried a circle, its always blue even my origin turned on. Its black when i hover the cursor over the circle. Is this ok? Thanks!

@cadcamstuff 7 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch! Go and click your name in the upper right and select preferences. Then, click Preview in the left dialog box and check the first item "Sketch- color sketch geometry based on constraint status." I did not realize that was made the difference on the line color when recording the video :-)

Start a sketch, then click on the drop-down arrow on the Stop Sketch icon at the top of the page->Then click the three vertical dots and assign your own custom shortcut 👍😊
