You're far and away the best on all of TH-cam for teaching Fusion 360. Most content providers think that it doesn't matter how fast they click and mouse around. We can always pause and back up, right? NO! Repeatedly doing that creates confusion. I spend all my time backing up and hoping I can stop at just the right place to see when they did something. A simple little thing like finishing sketch without announcing it and slowly moving your mouse to it can completely through me off. Please... don't change your style of teaching.
Brad, You are an excellent teacher. Sensibly paced content, which explains not just the hows, but also the whys. Look forward to more videos - I always learn a few new tricks when I watch them.
I have to say, being an advanced user of Fusion 360 myself, it is often hard to point novice users to a video that shows what I consider the best work approach of using planes, sketches, and object creation. Now I have one!
I have watched many Fusion 360 videos from other people and learned a little bit from each. Brad has taught me more in this one video than all the other ones combined. I will definitely watch all existing and future videos of his.
I've just run across this site and let me tell you are the first one that gets to the point without all the side dribble like the majority of TH-cam 'instructors'. Thank you. Keep it up. well done.
I've watched numerous tutorials on F360 and this was by far the best so far. Everything you used you explained in detail so it was very easy to follow for a beginner. Great work, thank you!
Very detailed and simple explanation, Thank you Brad. * The use of Intersect command is very useful I would do the following also: 1- the hexagon needs constraint 2- cut the big slot first then create the smaller slot (min 30:00) Thanks again
I have been teaching myself Fusion 360 for a couple of months - not exactly struggling, but finding it challenging. The video was full of “I wish I’d known that” moments for me. Thank you, I am much enlightened.
Really learned a lot, so I really appreciate this video and your efforts. One of my biggest problems is, I don't get to use F-360 on a continuous-basis, so I will make a part then have to relearn everything again later. So, I now figure, I need to occasionally make a F-360 part even if I never use it; but do it on a regular basis time permitting. Anyway, from one instructor to another, you do a great job... Thanks!
Interesting! We all seem to have our own way of getting from A to B to C. For me the approach // way of looking at the various aspects and the order in which you tackle them, were the most interesting of this tutorial. Thnx.
@W.P. Yep, there are probably many different ways to create this part. The way I did it may be different than how the designer did it and could be different from how you would do it. There's really no right or wrong way.
I am retired, but during my working days I was always interested in mechanical things, my favourite has always been anything driven by steam. mainly because when I was an engineer I used to build real marine steam donkey engines. Fusion has giving me a completely new interest in designing and building 3 D components, which has become a great pastime learning how to master the program. Thank you for making your program available free of charge for the hobbyists.. Bob.
@Rok- Wow! What a great idea. It definitely would be easier to determine what "operation" was used. Please share this on the Idea Station! forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-ideastation/idb-p/125/tab/most-recent .
Unfortunately I don't have a lot of faith that the idea station gets more than 2-3% of users actually view and participate (do you have stats?). I did however submit it here forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-ideastation/color-coded-timeline/idi-p/8664357 if anyone would like to vote on it.
@@adskFusion My greatest 'frustration' with Fusion360 has been its ( relatively) poor 'teaching/learning' capabilities in built compared to (say) solid works AND a lack of a co-ordinated system of learning for the beginner. Its seems that the assumption has been (largely) that people will 'migrate' to Fusion from somewhere however, I don't think anyone is going to migrate from Solid Works the industry standard at this stage - if/when Autodesk include an inbuilt contextual/command teaching/learn mode ala Solidworks - it will see the product jump exponentially up the amenity and utility curve. The only (then) remaining 'stop' to being taken more seriously will be a definite resolution to pricing for a SAS in Cloud programme - this is the greatest 'concern' that people have in terms of longer term 'commitment'. I say this as a beginning 'hobbyist' climbing the learning curve - but I have friends with manufacturing businesses whose 'fear' is actually being held captive to the potential of an ever increasing price and their work in someone's Cloud - being seen as a 'trap'. Perhaps Autodesk might remove such concerns by a clear statement of intent and a transparent if you want to here is how you can save your work - where you want to policy and implementation. You might be surprised to hear this - but your set of videos have been (by FAR) the most useful on line teaching / learning experience I have come across and have resurrected ( in me) interest in investing the time to learn Fusion360. I have learned more carefully watching 3-4 of your videos and taking notes than 50 other videos from various sources which have added up to being a waste of time - full of jumbled and confused intent. Anyway since you are an employee at autodesk I thought you might like the feedback FWIW and once again many thanks. Pete
Another twist on the guide rails is to do a move/copy on the spline within the first sketch and 3D rotate the other two splines, keeping them in the sketch

All month... And maybe even more going forward. Gotta pull some strings.
Awesome bit of learning in this one!
Thank you so much much for this tutorial I have found it so instructive and useful.
You have gained another subscriber 👍
Very like this way of learning ... good and calm teacher. Thanks for the work
Awesome, I feel honored that you like my part! Lots of teaching in this video, nice work.
I was just thinking that it looked very similar to the feet on MPCNC...lol
@Ryan- Yes, your design is incredible. I have always wanted to build a 3D Printed CNC machine and after a lot of research, your's came out on top.
Right? Small World Ryan! lol
Another satisfied customer. 👍
Always great to hear! Thank you!
Best Video I've seen to date! Awesome Sir!
Excellent
I've watched numerous tutorials on F360 and this was by far the best so far. Everything you used you explained in detail so it was very easy to follow for a beginner. Great work, thank you!
You are the best teacher uncle Brad. Really appreciate your hard work to teach us. Please do more these kind of lessons.
Oh man, you did absolutely perfect job! You are great teacher. Thank you very much for this LiveStream. 👍🏻
very nice! learned a ton!
Great to hear!
Still a nice video! Thanks
OMG I love the Pattern one man.!!!!! love your vids!!!!
Thanks Bryan. Brads back on deck for today and Thursday!
Its really u r so helpful
Thank you much! Brads back on this week with two great live streams!
Really great tutorial, thanks!
Thanks Ron!
Brads back on deck for today and Thursday!
Very helpful video, thanks for doing this.
Thanks for watching!
Great Video. Nice, slow and understandable. thanks!
Thanks Ron!
Very detailed and simple explanation, Thank you Brad.
* The use of Intersect command is very useful
I would do the following also:
1- the hexagon needs constraint
2- cut the big slot first then create the smaller slot (min 30:00)
Thanks again
@Auday- Yes, I agree. I should have cut the big slot first, and then cut the small slot only in the negative direction. Thank you for your insight!
great video i needed this type of lesson for a project i am working on.
Excellent lesson!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks much! Brad has TONS other content for you too!
Thank you for a really clear presentation. Absolutely brilliant pace. I cannot wait for the next one, thanks again.
thank you Autodesk for this great simple and instructive video on Fusion 360
Happy to oblige.
Great lessons Brad !
Thanks Andy!!
It's very interesting on Fabrication Drawing
Thanks for almost a book full of information and excellent explanation in a single drawing.
I have been teaching myself Fusion 360 for a couple of months - not exactly struggling, but finding it challenging. The video was full of “I wish I’d known that” moments for me. Thank you, I am much enlightened.
@Graham- We've all been there... That's why I like doing these videos... To share what I learned to help others...
Really learned a lot, so I really appreciate this video and your efforts.

So, I now figure, I need to occasionally make a F-360 part even if I never use it; but do it on a regular basis time permitting.
Anyway, from one instructor to another, you do a great job... Thanks!
In the middle of building one now. Also did the CAD for several components and hope to use the CAM to recreate some parts out of aluminum.
Awesome! See here for some great CAM lessons: f360ap.autodesk.com/courses#creating-toolpaths-and-programs-cam
@Thomas- Please share some pictures when you are done!
Great tips and advice.
Thanks Brock! Brads back on Tuesday this week with another great live stream! Join the live version next time if you can.
Thanks for a good demo with lots of good tips for intermediate user.
Well That's a lot of stuff one again thanks for all this, can't wait to use it

Thanks so much, Bob! It's examples like these that make the hobbyist license a no brainer for us!
Thank you so much!
Nicely paced, packed with clearly explained tips, and a really satisfying example model. Thank you!
Great and informative steam. Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks Martin. Looking forward to bringing you more great content!
Great video! I had some problems with rails and this cleared it all up! Thanks.
Thank you.
A very clear and at the right speed tutorial. I was able to add a few more techniques to my knowledge. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the VERY kind words, Klaas. Glad to have you!
I wish the extrude features were color coded in the timeline. Red for a cut, blue for a join, white for a new body...
Whoa! Me like.
Fantastic idea
Great idea!! Would be very helpfull in finding your way around the timeline!!
@Rok- Wow! What a great idea. It definitely would be easier to determine what "operation" was used. Please share this on the Idea Station! forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-ideastation/idb-p/125/tab/most-recent

I didn't get a chance to catch live.. But I just watched the video and followed along.. Amazing unlocking some new ideas for me!
Great to hear!
Great part. It has my wheels turning on things I want to design. The offset plane is a must
Extremely Useful and educative - so much appreciated!
Thanks Peter for the kind words!

A response to this will take a little more time than usual. Look for that tomorrow.
Thank you very much, a really great explanation and it sounds really easy. Congratulations on the professionalism.
I love this kind of videos. I usually have a tons of problem with this figures, using Lofting and offset planes. Until now! Thanks Brad!
Very new to 360 and I'm finding these videos very helpful and Brad's instructions is excellent - thank you 😃
Bellissimo
Thanks!
in french : magnifique un grand merci
Nous parlons toutes les langues ici chez Autodesk! Je plaisante, nous savons cependant utiliser Google Translate! Merci d'avoir regardé!
Wow! You are a great teacher. Thanks for being so detailed and methodical. Learned so much from this one video and I've been using Fusion for years.
Yet another awesome video Brad, thank you.
Thanks Spike!
Thanks for this video tutorial, need more tools aplication that can make easier desain especialy surface model
This is superb, I’ve been trying to exactly what your showing here. Thank you for saving my sanity.
Serenity now! Thanks for watching!
Another twist on the guide rails is to do a move/copy on the spline within the first sketch and 3D rotate the other two splines, keeping them in the sketch
Oh! I'll have to try that!
I believe 3D sketching is a setting you have to enable in the options before you can do that, but yeah, I was thinking the exact same thing.
