I really appreciate these videos! they are always very clear and intuitively explained. I am an aspiring engineer and have been tinkering in fusion since I got my student copy. I am always finding new tricks in your videos that I use in my own designs. Keep up the great work!
Hey man I just wanted to let you know that I haven't left the computer screen for about a week going through all your videos (well most of them) and I went from knowing absolutely nothing to pretty efficient in no time....i want to use 3d modeling on my youtube channel so I can offer prints to others for my projects.....I really appreciate what your doing and you do a fantastic job.....your channel is a one stop shop for everything and more than I could ask for thanks man Aaron
Thanks for the video Our learning curve of Fusion 360 is improved by such kind of these videos Please keep these kind of videos ( how to design a certain object ) which provides a lot of tips and tricks All the best
I can't wait to see fusion360 cam tutorials as I'm about to finish building my first cnc and would be great to see fusion360 cam tutorials in step by step can't wait thanks for great fusion360 tutorials you have been doing great videos.
@@ProductDesignOnline I'm building one from scratch my own design custom to what I want. At first I was going to buy one but every cnc I looked I to buy there was something I like and some things I didn't like so hens decided on custom building my own. Never used cam before so you videos will definitely be a bonus for me to learn about feed speeds etc thanks looking forward to you content. Ps. I like the way you explain everything in detail hope you keep the same mindset in you cnc videos.
@@jim.c6780 that's awesome! I wish I had the patience to build my own from scratch. Lol I definitely will keep the same format for the CNC videos... With the addition of more video footage to keep them entertaining 😎
OMG, I learned more from you in this video then what I learned in school. I'm kinda upset about that because I paid for those classes. Any who your amazing and teach very well. I do have a special request. Could you or do you have a video on articulated prints. So things like the octopus and lizard. My kids love these but I want to learn to make them myself.
I have a later version and somethings are different, but I'm not sure how to get past one of them. On 12:20 I can't select only the pin, it wants to select the whole component.
Thanks for the example parts. I did all 9 and print most of them. I have a suggestion for a short video. I would like to see how you move the model around the screen with the mouse and Hot keys. I have found the shift Middle mouse recently which make it more like Onshape for orbits but I think you have other methods that I could benefit from. Thanks again. I am get more comfortable each Video.
Finished another playlist while waiting for updated Fusion 360 playlist. Learned new thing from this video (section analysis as a help for mirroring is really cool idea). I selected joints faster by hiding component. Are you going to make more videos for making models to be printed?
Excelent video, I learn a lot with you. Did you configured supports for the joints in the slicer software to print the 3 pieces? How do you configure those parameter to print pieces with joints?
Hi I Know its a bit late but can you please make a video on how to make a gear for this or just post a file. I saw there were gears for it in the intro. I thought it was really cool. I was trying but really struggling. I Love your vids they are so clear and would recommend them to anyone! Thanks!
Any chance of getting a tutorial on bendable parts in relation to compliant designs? Like shapes that bend and depend on the plasticity of the material, as opposed to a hinge? I'm struggling to design a pattern for an s-like shape on bendable parts along a radius, or circle.
If you have a circular part that aims to be circular. But has a split to get glass into the circle ie magnifying glass handle. Can you “bend” the circle apart so that you can 3d print without it sticking? Like a sort of spring back effect in reverse. I’m looking to send off the part to be metal printed and don’t want the split to join. I had to have a decent gap in resin to get this to work. I normal circle part with 0.5mm gap. If you need a link to a video let me know. I can show in resin part I have.
I made it to 13:14 fine, but when trying to limit the motion to 95 degrees, it wouldn't limit the motion, even with 95 in both fields and pressing animate. The other issue was that when trying to grab the "flag" to move the joint like you do, that doesn't work either.
Hmmm.... first, can you double-check that your joints where applied to the 'cylindral' area? The second thing would be to make sure you're editing the joint limits for the correct joint. Sometimes it can be easier to access them from the Browser.
Nice tip! I'm assuming you printed the parts in the same orientation you designed them. So how did you manage to print the pins? Did you need to use any kind of support?
No support needed at the size I made them. They only stick out 1.5mm so it's little enough of a "bridge" the printer can handle it. If you make larger parts then supports or a larger taper would prob be ideal :)
Question: After creating the joints and joint limits, the 3 parts of the track are no longer along a straight line (for me, anyway). As a result, when I try to print the tracks in 3 section pieces, they are no longer flat when they are exported to an STL file and imported into the slicer. Is there a way in Fusion 360 to put all of the parts back on the same plane before exporting as an STL? Thanks,
One comment, maybe you could add to your videos the 3D print part preparation. I think that it would be very helpful considerating that your explanations are very good.
It only sticks out 1.5mm, which isn't very far. Most printers can 'bridge' out that far without it sagging. You may have to experiment though. You have to have the right temp dialed in for the material you're using :)
That looks great! I wanted this tutorial to be general so the design/application could be applied to many use cases. Your image looks like a similar hinge. Did you print that?
@@ProductDesignOnline Yes, they were 3D printed by me on a Form³ and are part of a larger Scratch Build project ( imgur.com/a/a0fBDzZ ). They also use actual brass pins to both link them together and ideally also prevent them from getting bent out of shape to the point where they'd snap during operation.

Thanks, Aaron! Glad to hear you're learning a lot! Cheers, Kevin
Thanks Kevin. Slowly I am becoming more adept at Fusion 360 thanks to your videos.
Thanks for the video

Hi brother I'm India
Very useful your videos thank-you
Thanks a lot Kevin for these tutorials. You're an excellent teacher 👍
Thanks! I appreciate you subscribing :)
Excellent work Kevin. Look forward to more videos. The 3D print series has been very informative and has helped me avoid pitfalls.
Your channel is amazing, I'm just starting with f360 and you provide knowledge I need :) Thank you

As always sensei great work keep them coming dear Kevin. Wa state.
This is awesome. Thanks I am definitely going to be studying a while. Ready to start prototyping
Glad you’re doing well man and really glad you’re not quitting the channel! I’ll definitely be looking forward to your cam videos. 👍
Thank you so much for providing very useful knowledge regarding designing😙😙😙
New CNC setup looks great!
Thanks, Jordan! :)
These videos are so helpful. Thank you .
Thanks, Joseph!
Love the timestamps on the video!
Glad you find those to be useful! I've been trying to go through to make sure all my videos have them. I'm about halfway done :)
Hi bro. Great tutorial again. Thank you..
I like your videos. You explain it so nice and clear.
Great tutorial. I'm excited waiting for your CNC working to produce chips :-)
really nice tutorial. Is it possible you could also show how to design the gear to run these tracks ?
C'mon everyone this video is definitely worth 1000 👍 "Liked". Just saying... 😃
Sweet vid bro - thanks for sharing.
Good work. Agreed with 0.5 mm overall clearance. I'll try with a 45 degrees taper at the pin connection.
great vid man
Thanks for this tutorial
That was amazing Kevin! Thank you!
Thanks! :)

I selected joints faster by hiding component.
Are you going to make more videos for making models to be printed?
Yes! I hope to get back to more 3D printing content this summer ☺️
Great as usual :) I learned a lot from u :) I still noob but I draw a lot of thing :)
We have clearance, Clarence.
Excelent video, I learn a lot with you. Did you configured supports for the joints in the slicer software to print the 3 pieces? How do you configure those parameter to print pieces with joints?
Love this, thank you. The only bit my mind blanks on is how to select an object to move the animation.....(Edit) Found it!
Hi
I Know its a bit late but can you please make a video on how to make a gear for this or just post a file. I saw there were gears for it in the intro. I thought it was really cool. I was trying but really struggling. I Love your vids they are so clear and would recommend them to anyone!
Thanks!
thank you for these!
Can you show a video on making tank tracks with this drag chains
This is so legit. Thanks.
Any chance of getting a tutorial on bendable parts in relation to compliant designs? Like shapes that bend and depend on the plasticity of the material, as opposed to a hinge? I'm struggling to design a pattern for an s-like shape on bendable parts along a radius, or circle.
can fusion360 do that?
Awesome! Thanks!
Man! you get that like from me and my second account!
How did you make sprocket to fit the chain you made to turn it into a tank tread. I'm trying to make a 3D tank and I'm not sure how to make it.
If you have a circular part that aims to be circular. But has a split to get glass into the circle ie magnifying glass handle. Can you “bend” the circle apart so that you can 3d print without it sticking? Like a sort of spring back effect in reverse.

this's very great
How did you make it without using support materials?
I'd like to see you join those parts together because they are going to an absolute pain to join with no chamfer on the front of the pin,
Awsome!!!!!
1k likes is way too low for this video..
This deserves 10k at least..!!
How to make the gear for in the middle
Kevin, I really appreciate these videos! Question ... how did you get to move / drag all the links AFTER you grounded the first body?
So that's how you use interference... See, always learn something!
Nice tip! I'm assuming you printed the parts in the same orientation you designed them. So how did you manage to print the pins? Did you need to use any kind of support?

How to design wheel for this track?
can you make a pen holder???
how do you make a gear for it?
One comment, maybe you could add to your videos the 3D print part preparation. I think that it would be very helpful considerating that your explanations are very good.
Thanks for the suggestion, Hector! :)
How do you get it to print with no supports with an angle of 7°? Does it print fused and then you just have to wiggle it and break it apart?
It only sticks out 1.5mm, which isn't very far. Most printers can 'bridge' out that far without it sagging. You may have to experiment though. You have to have the right temp dialed in for the material you're using :)
969 here!
Thanks, Bill :D

To be fair, these parts are Hinged, not Bent, but awesome video nevertheless!
