That was the best and the simplest video on fusion 360 I have ever watched. All other videos go into too much detail that take you down a rabbit hole. They also think everybody is an expert on fusion. Which means they can leave out Important steps. Which leaves you lost it's all about the simple details. That you cover very well.
Thank you I really appreciate it let me know if there's any other functions that would be helpful for me to make a video about relating to writing a toolpath for langmuir systems
@amcustomfab I realize this is an old video but a tutorial on how to lay simple straight open lines as cut paths would be helpful. I'm just learning all the software and it took a while to figure out that kind of cut. Thanks for the vid
@amcustomfab every time I open and try to bring svg into fusion 360 it's just blank where you size and move around. It shows an error that reads the selected file contains no info or some unsupported info. Any help on what I'm doing wrong
Great Job! For users new to anything CNC, your videos are very helpful. Most, even Langmuir, tends to gloss over the details. Would love to see more on Fusion and Fire Control. Thanks again.
This is a good tutorial on importing a drawing and converting it to a Fusion 360 drawing and generating a cut path from that. Tip: When you switch to manufacture mode, click on the fabrication title on the menu bar, then click on setup to establish the setup file. When you set up the 2D cutting, I prefer to do a separate file for inside cuts and outside cuts. This allows you to set the starting point as inside the cut for holes and out side the cut for the outside edge. It's not as complicated as it sounds because you can use the duplicate function on the drop down menu to copy the first cut file to the second. Then change the selected edges to cut from the inner holes to the outer edge and change the starting points from inside to outside. measurement in Fusion 360 by clicking on you name in the upper right corner and selecting preferences from the drop down menu. Click on Default Units and change both the Design and Manufacture units to what you like, click apply and they will always be the same. Happy cutting!
Question: after I made my spline fit points and put them to "fixed" my line was blue and the sketch looked complete. How do you get your sketch to go into the black line? I tried to extrude but it wouldn't, I am assuming because it is still in that blue line mode?
Hey man, I'm brand new to not only CNC but to computers also. You made this so easy and I can't believe I can do the Silhouettes quickly. Thank you so much for this video. I love your other videos too on how to do different things with the pro machine. God bless and keep up the good work.
I don't comment to much on TH-cam , but I'm new to designing software and about to buy a lagmuir xr. This one how to video is absolutely amazing brought me step by step how to create an item to cut. Could not build a tool path yet as I have no downloaded tool from langmuir. Fantastic job ill be back when I get my table!!!
Dude. I love your videos. So clear and straightforward. Helpful and useful. One suggestion, though, (maybe you've already fixed that in future videos) please bump your volume up when you produce. I have to crank it up to a higher level to hear, and the ads come blasting in at 10x as loud.
@@amcustomfab Another thought is to do a fresh version of this with the latest versions of InkScape and F360, as their menus have changed. And the previously mentioned sound level boost.
Well, I am the guy who needs to know how to add my machine to Fusion 360. I have the Langmuir Crossfire with Razerweld 45 machine. I can’t seem to find an easy way to do the setup, that is where I had to stop when following your video, which is fantastic for a newbie like me. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.
Good tutorial but dude, you have gotta crank up the volume. I had to turn things up so high just to hear what you were saying that I almost took out speakers when the video switched to an ad.
@@amcustomfab No Problem, we will call it constructive criticism. I'm drooling over the Langmuir CNC Plasma so watching lots of videos before I pull the trigger on one for my shop.
You have a link to the Langmuir tool video? I’ve been looking through their videos but they’re all out of order and can’t find it. I’m running the pro if that matters since I’ll be using fire control if that’s even needed anymore.
Thanks your video was very helpful, I would like to make fire pit for my back yard approximately 16x36 ,I would like add a silhouette of a log cabin with a few pine trees and a few bears and deer or wolves along with our family name .how do I copy and paste these pictures on the sketch. Thanks so much for your help.. I’m still just learning
@@amcustomfab my letter distance is .177 and my lead- in distance (in linking) is .05 and still it only cuts the outside of bottle opener not even the opener part
I was able to follow your instructions step by step and everything worked. I was able to start my cut. So thank you for that! I’m getting a pierce height and torch height to high error you wouldn’t happen to have a resolution for that would you?
I would check a couple things make sure that your leads are not getting too tight like have good slack between the torch and the boom that holds the leads off the table. Also double check your grounds and make sure that you're consumables in the torch are not screwed in too tight specifically the cone
Wish you would do one on fire control and sheet an thru fusion..and I just got my pro to the point of jogging and it seems like at 300inpermin it's faulting.do I just need to break in or is my bearing to tight?
Ok so langmuir is just a part with in fusion just like the software sheetcam? Sheet cam just allows u to create cut paths, tool settings and a software gcode can read.
Joe, this is longer only because he is starting with a photo image. If he was starting with an imported DXF of SVG file it only takes 5 - 10 minutes to do the whole process. The more you do it the faster you get at it.
Also I was wondering , currently do u have to do anything different when it comes to crossfire , I have a pro and so does the only cut file it read CPS( I think that’s what it’s called) file? And when u go to the post button , does that right then and there turn the file into a cut file?

So when you open it on Mack 3 what do you do then? I also agree with you!

I agree, a very noob friendly video. I wish more videos were like these.
Dude keep making these beginner videos! Your easy to understand and I appreciate that!
Great Job!
For users new to anything CNC, your videos are very helpful. Most, even Langmuir, tends to gloss over the details. Would love to see more on Fusion and Fire Control. Thanks again.
I am finally completing my table and this was the next step! This was very informative and educational. Thank you sir!

I was watching somebody do this the other day I definitely want to learn how to do that

Im branch new ...Dude you are gonna be my go to for this! Way better and more understandable than the rest. I'll be watching for more!
Me too, I'm almost 50 and never use the computer in my life. It was like giving a caveman fire I didn't know what to do first.
Followed you precisely. Langmuir setup is where I am stuck.
Excellent Tutorial. I am at the stage of making my 1st cut from importing an Image... Thanks for the Information. Greatly appreciated!!!

Thanks for making that, it was a good video, perfect length and perfect explanation
Merci! C’est bien expliqué.
Thank you! It’s well explained.
very good video I'm just starting and it was very helpful
Thanks all the best from John in Texas
I can not figure out how to put in my mache or tool please do a video.
U have helped me alot
It really is impossible to understand what you are saying. But I am Grateful for you sharing with us. Thank you
Your content is awesome! Thank you

I'm definitely not above constructive criticism appreciate all that I can get 👍😎
Yeah I've had my OG table for about 2 years and I put a lot of hours on it just got the pro table in last week getting ready to assemble it
This was a great video thanks
Please make more, having problems with blur and sound
You have a link to the Langmuir tool video? I’ve been looking through their videos but they’re all out of order and can’t find it.
I’m running the pro if that matters since I’ll be using fire control if that’s even needed anymore.
You can set your preference by clicking the right button in the top right hand corner and you can set it to inches permanently.
Thanks!
Very nice job, thank you
Best video ouit there but I can barely hear
Thanks your video was very helpful, I would like to make fire pit for my back yard approximately 16x36 ,I would like add a silhouette of a log cabin with a few pine trees and a few bears and deer or wolves along with our family name .how do I copy and paste these pictures on the sketch. Thanks so much for your help.. I’m still just learning
Very informative, but when I simulate cut it only does the outline not the letters in the center. Any help would be appreciated, thank you
Most likely you lead in distance to to long you want your lead in less than half the thickness of your letter . Thanks for watching 😎
@@amcustomfab my letter distance is .177 and my lead- in distance (in linking) is .05 and still it only cuts the outside of bottle opener not even the opener part
@@amcustomfab thank you I found the problem the pierce clearance was too high
HI, any chance you can do an update for the last part of this video Cross Fire Pro ( Fire Control), please thanks
Great video thx!

Really hard to tell without having it in front of me. Can you describe what it is doing or not doing? 🙂
Good info, how to set up tool
What happened to the volumn??????????????????????
What drivers do you recommend?
Volume was too low. When ad played it screamed at me.
What consumables are you using?
amzn.to/3oXHttx
Sorry, forgot to mention I’m using the razerweld 45. Which one would you recommend
Also thanks for these videos! Very helpful. Keep making them!
can i use this with my ez plasma system using mach3 and sheet cam? i would like to just use fusion as my drawing platform if possible
Sould be able to
or can i setup my ezplasma table up as a tool in fusion, sorry brand new to this. learning
Sorry I am not familiar with ezplasma
Ok so langmuir is just a part with in fusion just like the software sheetcam? Sheet cam just allows u to create cut paths, tool settings and a software gcode can read.
Ezplasma is a 2011 table with a widows xp tower and prob a 1.0 mach3 gcode writer. So not sure how compatible fusion would be with that.
Thumbs up For the bumper sticker at 0:23
i don't see any inkscape?
That is a LOT of work to create a simple cut file.
Joe, this is longer only because he is starting with a photo image. If he was starting with an imported DXF of SVG file it only takes 5 - 10 minutes to do the whole process. The more you do it the faster you get at it.
Can you make a video on making many on one sheet of metal.
Thanks
The volume was way down...
Can`t hear You please lauder👍
Good to know
I thought it was funny when u said do your due diligence while passing an image of a dog pooping
Also I was wondering , currently do u have to do anything different when it comes to crossfire , I have a pro and so does the only cut file it read CPS( I think that’s what it’s called) file? And when u go to the post button , does that right then and there turn the file into a cut file?
Your volume control is horrible
