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?
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.
@@LearnEverythingAboutDesign just watched it. Your example in the video didn’t quite resonate with me, but I know where I can use the technique in the project I’m working on to try it out.
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!

Thanks Brian!
Surface modeling is very powerful indeed. Thanks for the tuturial!
Glad you like it!
I always enjoy watching your tutorials.
Happy to hear that!

Happy new years!
Once again very helpful tutorial - Thanks for that and a Happy New Year !!
Happy new year! Thanks for the question and model!
This is gold, thanks for all the work you put into your channel!
Glad you enjoy it!

great video - thanks and Happy New Year :)
Happy new year!
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!!!
wow
Would replace face work
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!
I was gonna ask the same thing.
