Using Direct Modeling Techniques for In Context Design

You can use direct modeling for more than you thought! In this example, taken from the getting started content, you'll see how to design a part in context to a larger assembly. See the rest of this series by using the link below:

Every time I watch a video, there’s always a little gem of information hidden that I learn about. Fantastic video, thank you.

[@adskFusion]

Brad is a great presenter! Make sure to subscribe if you find these helpful.

Re-Anchor. Been using F360 for years and never used that or knew what it did!

[@michaelnelson3985]

Great video! Reanchor - never even knew it existed

[@GeryS.]

Same! And this is really helpful!

[@gordon6029]

Rewatched this one. This is the style of video I really like.

[@Auday365]

Great tutorial, how easy and fluid the design process using Fusion 360 with many tools discussed here, direct modeling, dimensions, re-anchor, split body, and others with design intent in mind, just amazing.
Thank you.

[@adskFusion]

Brad has some GREAT content, and he presents at a nice pace.

[@MrEngineer_]

WOW, You made it so effortless. Thanks!!

[@gabrielestupinan]

I love this software!!!! Awesome!!!!

[@henrykenuam2400]

Great video!!!!

[@MrRostomS]

Wow this was very clear, Thank you.

[@adskFusion]

Catch one of many of Brads live streams! He's fantastic live!

[@21area21]

Shouldn't you start by making a new component rather than sketching directly on the base assembly?

[@adskFusion]

You caught us forgetting RULE #1...yet again. Old habits die hard.

[@21area21]

@@adskFusion Thanks for the response. I didn't know if it was some big brain technique or just an oversight. :P

[@larryminster9661]

Does anyone where I can get this model so I can follow along?

[@steevesmith1573]

Why we have to convert the body to a component?

[@adskFusion]

If you ever want to show how parts are going to "interact", they need to be components.

[@nssdesigns]

Excellent

[@MrDaniell1234]

Using slices makes it easier to see what you are dong when stuff is in the way

[@adskFusion]

We hear you! Next time.

[@automan1223]

what accessory are you using to fly around the model so quickly, zooming around , in , out ?

[@adskFusion]

Its a 3d Mouse, similar to these: www.3dconnexion.com/

[@TJ-ed8mw]

Very cool, but wouldn't the new part collide with the outer casing?(if installed as to the plane which cut)

[@adskFusion]

That's definitely possible, but an easy fix at the same rate.

[@mfarjr1848]

super helpful

[@adskFusion]

Brad has some creative solutions up his sleeves.

[@ericbeckers2673]

Fusion 360 rocks

[@adskFusion]

Thanks! So do our users!

[@FaizanAli-op2xe]

Great. Where can i find full video for the brake part.

[@adskFusion]

This is a one and done tutorial...but see other vids on the getting started content as noted in the description.

[@adskFusion]

Gracias.

[@seimela]

The reason why i can't use fusion over solidworks is i don't have weldments option on fusion, i use it for many of my projects

[@adskFusion]

We've definitely heard that before! As an ex SWX I get the value of weldments. Hope to have those abilities at some point.

[@ИванПрохоров]

Прелестно! Прелестно!

[@adskFusion]

Спасибо! Спасибо!

waste of my time, use generative design it's more fast
