I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this quick video. I’m basically a hacker when it come to cad. But this knowledge will help me a lot this week with a current work project. I have to recreate components that were created in Blender and saved as .stl files. Because why would you ever need to change them? Thanks again!!
With the Personal license there are no easy workflows. With the paid version you have the prismatic conversion of mesh. Or try to find the files you want in STEP format. Only projecting the mesh would give all the small lines of the triangle faces and not smooth arcs etc.
No parametric CAD software are built to handle mesh-files in a good way. And in my opinion mesh files should not be edited, try and find a STEP file of the design if possible.
As a beginner, this video is extremely frustrating. I've gotten past the point where I've created and trace the sketch, but I am unable to extrude a solid. You don't show precisely how you did it in the video. To be clear, I do generally understand how to extrude faces from solids, but this is my first time going from mesh to sketch to solid. The sketch is made, but the only thing I can extrude is a surface, which makes the end product look like a cookie cutter rather than a solid face. I'm guessing my sketch isn't closed, but I have no idea how to do that without going through the complicated constraint process that you flew through. Is there an easy way to just join all the curves and lines that I made to trace my sketch?
If you have problems with constraints and other things in sketches I'd recommend some beginner tutorials on sketching. If I'd point out every constraint in this video it would and how to set them up the video would be 1 hour long, and there would still be missing information. Working with meshes and mesh section sketches are not easy if your are a beginner.
This was excellent. As a beginner I learn a lot from this demo. Thanks!!
Thank you :)
Just what i was looking for. Thank you
An excellent example of a little known feature that is a much better method of obtaining a brep body from many geometric meshes.
The "magic button" rarely works on bad Meshes. I hope user will learn that STL-files are not that useful.
Thank you! I love your videos.
Thank you :)
This was actually very insightful, thanks!
Great explanation ! Excellent !
Siempre dando lo mejor! Gracias
This was extremely useful to me, thank you so much!
Pretty good video man
Very useful!
Thank you

Thank you :) it's nice to know the little knowledge i share gets used :)
Thanks for the video, trying to do this but there has got to be an easier way, is there no project from mesh sketch to sketch?

You just confirmed what I'd read elsewhere that fusion doesn't do meshes well..

man if i could be half as quick and accurate as you
right clicking meshsection doesnt give me an edit sketch option, all i get is create selection set, delete, rename, show/hide and find in window
You need to right-click on the Sketch that the mesh-section sketch is in. I know it's a bit confusing.
@@KristianLaholm yeah, I realized that, thanks for the informative video
Can one download this mesh to try oneself somewhere?
My old link for this file is no longer working. But you can find a lot of extrusion like this on grabcad in mesh format.
Its awesome and powerfull
Very usefull thank a lot
Very usefull !

Why do you pronounce "Origin" like that?
I think it's that English is my second language and sometimes I mix up the pronunciation.
@@KristianLaholm I see, I thought I was missing something, but that makes sense.
