3D Printing Basics - Fusion - More Complex Parts - Threads - Chris's Basement 2025

[@JustMakeIt_YT]

Gotta love a back to basics video - nice little refresher. Keep up the great work Chris! 👌

[@madmaxh3]

Thanks Chris, I look forward to your "Back to Basics" videos every week. Oh, and HAPPY NEW YEAR !

[@ChrisRiley]

Thank you! Happy New Year!

Very good tutorial for beginners. You hit on fusion tools that I used on almost all of my functional projects. A chamfer on the top and bottom of the flat would have been a nice addition to show ways of removing the need for support.

[@ChrisRiley]

Thank you! I struggle with how much and what to put in the videos. I am hoping if I make enough, I will hit most of the highlights.

[@rille47]

Thank You, I learned so much about that total mystery of threading in fusion.. this is great, I wanna play around a lot with this now. Great video!

[@woodwaker1]

Like the fact that you introduced tolerances, that seems to be one of the big advantages to Fusion over Tinkercad. Have a great New Year

I'm new to 3D printing and 3D modeling, but this I'm slightly further along than this. But I'm a "learn as I go" type of person, which means I miss the underlying reason for something being the way it is, sometimes. That's a long-winded way of saying I appreciate this series a whole lot because you're filling in gaps I didn't even know I had :)

[@OneIdeaTooMany]

Great video as always Chris. One thing i'd like to point out is that you want to be adding a clearance rather than tolerance between your parts. Clearance is the amount by which one object clears another. Tolerance is about allowable deviation. I think 3D printing filament with its listed dimensional accuracy of +/- 0.02mm might be a good example of a tolerance where as the distance between a threaded hole, and the machine screw threads is its clearance. Smart people in the comments... feel free to correct me as necessary.

Happy New Year

[@ChrisRiley]

Happy New Year Gussner!

[@Galaktican1]

Nice video, Chris. Just some constructive criticism. You are adding a clearance to the measurement or part, not a tolerance.

[@sit-and-fly7785]

Yep, tolerance can be +/-. And I agree that it was a good video.

[@ChrisRiley]

Great point, thank you!

[@ccaldwell8556]

More! (and thank you) 🙂

[@ChrisRiley]

You got it! Thank you!

[@gerdmuster4541]

Danke sehr

Instead of doing the Offset plane for the cylinder you can just use the Tangent Plane.

12:40 "Molded" :-)

[@2007Zee]

he said it a few times. we're all human. 🙂

[@Ed_Stoddard]

Just so if he sees this he'll know the correct word. It's "MODELED".

[@ChrisRiley]

LOL, did I say molded? Ha ha, making videos is hard. Thanks all, noted.

[@woodcat7180]

@ChrisRiley no doubt, please keep making them

Be careful Chris, a monetized youtube channel probably falls outside of what the personal license for fusion allows. This could get you into trouble and you might want to cut the header out.

[@TheSliderW]

The french auto translation is pretry bad

[@ChrisRiley]

That's too bad, I was wondering how well those were going to work.

Happy new Year
