I've taken hundreds of students through these exercises in a wide variety of CAD programs. Fusion 360 is a good one, see my other videos, especially the survey of the CAD market, top to bottom.

[@jeffreyfreeman7409]

FINALLY! Someone who knows how to present the material in a way that makes me feel like I can learn it. I learned so much from this single video in a short time. Thank you, Arnold.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

You're very welcome! Jeffrey, its great software and I'm sure you'll find it very useful.

[@Rilley-ym1nj]

That means I'm not the only one, I thought this was hard a very complex thing to do...but😊

[@jaredsprague5063]

I'm so excited! I just started the older lessons last week. This is perfect timing!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Welcome to the channel JS, hopefully this revised one will make at least the beginning easier.

[@lentosy100]

Thx for the remake. Can't wait to see all 16 parts. Good job!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Coming up lentosy, but it will be a bit slow, I'm going to go right through everything to improve them in response to the feedback I've had.

[@bluedevil678]

A massive thank you! Exactly the type of tutorial video that is pure quality!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Glad it was helpful!

[@RasheedBarnes]

Thanks for this. Your style is exactly how I learn.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Awesome, thank you!

[@overlandadventures6763]

Thanks for a great lesson. I finally feel I can learn Fusion 360. Looking forward to doing the rest of the 16 lessons.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Great to hear!

So cool. I was on a 3d printing group and someone mentioned you and your tutorials! Thanks for doing these!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Its good to meet you PPD, let me know if I can help with anything.

[@automaticallydave]

Thanks a million Arnold. I will be using this information to mill a part on a mini CNC mill - that I haven't received yet. So I will be learning a whole new set of skills, and you will be part of that process. Thank you again.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you AD! That sounds fantastic. You've got a lot to learn yet, but persevere, its worth it.

[@neth1996]

Hey Arnold, thank you so much! I struggled to learn Fusion360 from other KZbinrs but this tutorial has really helped me

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I'm glad you're here Neth, keep in touch as you work through the series.

[@Cybertruck_69]

Thank you for such a clear and easy to follow tutorial! Awesome. Hadn't used any CAD for many years. You are making it fun to learn this.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@mikebadera3044]

I have been on and off Fusion 360 for at least 5 months... finally you have done it! An easy to understand and follow updated version that matches the version I downloaded last summer. I already feel motivated to finish this after just the first lesson where I think I already learned more in a half an hour than I did in the last 10 hours I've been trying. Thanks.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Glad it helped!

[@glennyee5607]

My sentiments EXACTLY. I'm excited about learning the material NOW!

[@JPNVideos]

The Introduction is very good so looking forward to doing this course. I will also be joining your Facebook page.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I'll look forward to getting to know you JPN

[@SeamusMcNeil]

Excellent tutorials mate - I just did the old part one then KZbin showed me that you have now revised that lesson so here I am. Many thanks for taking the time to do these. All the best and I look forward to completing the series. Cheers....Jim

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you Jim, glad you found the revised one. I'd delete that old one except that my channel would fall off the search engine. Let me know if I can help with any questions.

[@RockDog101]

I had just started the older lessons and was a little confused because the interface was a bit different. So glad I found this!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I'm glad you found it RD. The way KZbin works you have to leave old tutorials up, otherwise the channel just falls off the search engine. I try to put out as many pointers as I can to the new one but the momentum always comes from the old one.

[@raymtlee]

this is a fantastic video for newbies. Thanks a million!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

That’s great Ray, keep going, you’ll do something fantastic.

[@mayakotso9432]

great video! extremely clear and straightforward thank you

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@lashley370z]

Ok, I just watched video #1. Can't wait to fire up F360 tomorrow and see if I can make part #1. You made it seem really understandable and easy to do. Thank you for taking the time to help people you don't even know. I feel confident that I can learn this.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you Gary, new software is always a challenge, we all get stuck here and there, the thing is to reach out and ask me questions when you do.

[@rrswitch48]

Hi Aronold, Thank you for the upgraded tutorial!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

My pleasure! and good to hear from you again SM!

[@jdoo2252]

Hi Arnold, Yours was the 8th beginer tutorial I trialled over the last week and it seems to me to be miles ahead of the rest. Looking forward to working through them all. Thanks for your efforts.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Welcome aboard JDOO, let me know if I can help with anything.

[@MrTylerbrogan]

I watched all 16 a while back, glad your doing a remake! My 8yo learned fusion from you.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

That's really cool Tyler, and what are you guys doing with Fusion 360? Are you looking at 3D printing?

[@MrTylerbrogan]

@@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360 yes! We have a couple creality printers. After your corse she made herself a stand for her recorder in fusion, then printed it out all by herself. She even drew a little blueprint for it with dimensions and all, I was blown away.

[@jimdean7335]

Arnold, very well done and very timely. I’ve watched your previous videos and they help me greatly with my efforts to learn and use Fusion 360. I took a little time off and was just getting back to work and realized how much I forgot. I’m looking forward to the next 15. One of the things that I struggle with is not knowing some of the very basic things and tips to be more efficient. Terminology, basic settings, etc can slow the learning by us beginners. Keep up the good work.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I remember talking back then, welcome back. The revised ones should be better now that I have a couple of years feedback to draw on. I've realised that I can demonstrate some power user tips in the tutorials. Not that I'm one or that people can expect to be a genius straight away but you can discipline yourself to practise the habits of a power user. That's almost half way to being there.

[@ronsaenz9033]

I am trying to learn Fusion 360 and your set of videos just gets right to the point. Thank you for making these. They are much appreciated.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I’m glad to hear the tutorials are doing the job. Keep in touch if you get stuck on anything, I can often help.

[@jwonderfulsuccess]

Arnold great video! I'm watching it then practicing alone over and over so it sinks in- then watching part 2 and repeat. Thank you and thank God for the wisdom in which to direct our minds.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Welcome to the channel Marco. Don't wait, pick up number 2 in the old version, its not too different. I can only produce about one tutorial a month these days until I can ditch my day job. You could be well on your way by then. Don't miss the intermediate tutorial playlist when you're done with the 16 basic ones. Of course you can ask questions about anything that you get stuck on.

[@williammills5111]

Arnold- thanks for taking the time to revise the material. The first iteration was quite good, but this is certainly an improvement. I am re-visiting the series to brush up after a period when I did not use the program. Again, many thanks for a clear presentation!

[@RobertBrown-lf8yq]

Hi Arnold. Great to see that you are updating the Tutorials for the ‘new’ UI. I did all 16 of your original series, and this one is just as good 👍 I’m what is termed a ‘senior’, so I tend to learn by read-try-read again method, and progressive video Tutorials allow me to do that. Once again…. thank you. Regards Robert ( Sydney).

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thanks Robert, I'm delighted to hear that I've been able to help you find a good way to learn new tricks. My production pace is painfully slow but I hope to give you more to learn soon.

[@glennyee5607]

Fantastic job on your instruction. I've started other tutorials 3-4 times and gotten frustrated, with the primarily issue being the teaching methods. You are conveying the concepts and functionality in a very concise way. I learned soooo much from this intro session and am looking forward to the following videos! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thanks Glenn, I hope this gets you to where you want to be. Keep talking to me if you have any questions.

I have been looking at fusion 360 for about 3 weeks now & watched countless KZbin videos of which most have confused me more. Thank you Arnold your videos are perfect for me so easy to understand & well thought out for us newbie’s to fusion. I can’t thank you enough really keep up the amazing work.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Glad I could help! Don't loose track of all those resources that you've researched. They'll come in handy, all KZbinrs have their unique strengths, I use many of them quite often. Quiet tip; my secret weapon is John Hackney, see here:- kzbin.info

[@berkeleygang1834]

I haven't touched 3D CAD in decades (back when the minimum hardware requirement was a Sun Sparkstation running Unix). Fusion 360 looks amazing. Looking forward to learning more. I appreciate the revised tutorials, because there seems to be some changes in the UI between the original series, and the current version. Well done! Both in the way you're teaching it, and the revision you took the time to produce.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thanks BG, you've seen some water pass under the bridge.

[@leraughn]

This is the best series of fusion 360 tutorials I have found on KZbin. I had tried a lot of other programs and never really liked any of them but avoided Fusion because it seemed too complicated.

[@gizmobly350]

You're a really great instructor. I had 3 years of drafting in high school in the early 80's. I remember many a red mark for sloppy lines crossing, dimensions off, and smudging the paper with graphite. Life took a different path and haven't touched this stuff since I recently got a 3D printer. This is cheating :) Thank you for making these!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Those were the days! I remember seeing rooms full of drawing boards in tech schools and then I'll never forget the shock of seeing rooms full of big 21 CRT monitors at the local uni in the mid 1990's. Times change.

[@kyletymchen3231]

This is awesome thank you so much for this through tutorial. Your awesome at this.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thankyou Kyle, all the best for your journey, I'll be pleased to help if I can.

[@RonTeeuw]

Thank you, I love that you shared your knowledge with us. I tried 3D max quite a few years ago but had a hard time getting the hang of it due to lack of KZbin content. Since I am dyslexic I have trouble with manuals and written courses, KZbin is a blessing for me. I am now working on 3d printing as a hobby and want to design things myself, I noticed that fusion 360 was used a lot for that. and that's how I ended up here. Again, thank you for your contributions.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

You're very welcome! KZbin now has the second biggest search engine on the internet and I rarely draw a blank when I'm searching for unusual things. It was only a few years ago that I found the gaps more often. Yes, Fusion and 3D printing do go together very well, I recently got my first 3D printer myself.

[@wilamshields]

Thank you so much excellent, easy to follow course and only on part one.

[@user-pp8pt6ni2g]

Wow! Awesome first tutorial. I may finally learn a CAD program thanks to these lessons. It’s refreshing to find someone who puts in the time to teach rather than trying to show off how much they know. And my guess is Mr. Rowntree could run circles around most of them. Back to school and with a great teacher. Thank you so much.

[@active851]

I've been struggling with getting into Fusion for some time with tutorials that claim to be basic but were actually really badly presented with too much jargon. For someone who is completely new to CAD and had absolutely no experience in any design, sketching or image editing capacity at all, following your videos has enabled me to go from zero knowledge to producing a millimeter perfect spare part that I needed in just over an hour. I'm busy working my way through the rest of your videos and finding a few 'eureka' moments in each! Thanks so much and please keep it going!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

That's great to hear active8! Keep learning.

[@danjirinnn]

I'm no engineer, but work in game dev creating hard surface assets, and this has been HUGELY instrumental to my learning. Like others have said, a lot of jargon usually gets thrown this and that way with these tutorials online which makes it difficulty to fully grasp, but you've explained very well and concisely. Thank you so much!

You're welcome kk, that's tremendous. My son is in games and is working on one called "Burning Lands" about to go to crowd-funding.

[@robertturner1550]

Thanks for creating these training videos.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you Robert, welcome to my channel.

Best introduction lecture by far. This is the 6th KZbin Introduction to Fusion 360 video I have screened. I knew there would be someone out there who would present the software better than the rest. Other than a few pauses. I got through the lecture at your pace. I am sure that already being familiar with the basic interface helped. Many of the older tutorials are for prior versions and the interface has changed substantially making them almost useless. Thanks again..

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Its good to have you here Darwin, let me know if you have any questions, I can often help with the kind of speed bumps most people hit. My tutorials are being revised gradually, number five is in the works now but most people find that they can follow the older ones after a few of the revised ones. The changes were really pretty minor.

[@frankcruz1751]

I will check it out thank you Arnold for being patient with people like me. I just want to learn fusion 360. I have a programming test coming up on June 6th

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Study hard for your test Frank, I'll be here and I hope your CAD skills make a difference for you.

[@bobcooper167]

Just starting the journey of learning to design and 3d print. Finished first on looks good, aimed at my level. Cheers

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you Bob, keep in touch as you go.

[@glenns5296]

G'Day Arnold, I'm a new user to Fusion 360 and I have to say the way you explain things makes it very easy to follow. I will be working my way through all your tutorials. Thanks

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Great Glenn! Keep learning and let me know if you have any trouble with anything.

[@racerat]

Awesome, thank you!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

You're welcome!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I think I have a clue on what you'll be doing with Fusion 360, RR FPV, I've looked at a lot of KZbins about DIY FPV, I'll get around to it one day.

[@theboxroom]

The presentation of these tutorials is straight from the top drawer. I use KZbin a lot to learn "how to" various things; from DIY to games and now to 3D Print and the designs that I need to accomplish what I want. These tutorials are by far and away the best that I have ever seen on any subject. They should be studied by any KZbinr trying to get their point across. Many thanks for your time, investment and genuine nature.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thanks Greg, God bless you

[@steveharmon2366]

I really liked the way you showed us around the screen and the different buttons and how they work. I am getting confident in drawing but am totally lost on saving stuff and time lines and how to keep the drawings in order. Hopefully as we progress I will figure this out.. Thanks again

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Don’t let those details worry you at this stage Steve, if you can get a part modelled you’re on the way. There is plenty of time to sort out the ancillaries, just enjoy the adventure.

[@steveharris2177]

Great tutorial. First time using Fusion 360 and this made it so straightforward to get started. Excellent teaching style and very easy to follow. I know this is just the very first step and there's a whole load more to come, so looking forward to the next videos.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Welcome Steve, keep talking to me, we all need help eventually.

[@pmsihl1]

Thanks a lot. I’ve learned a lot. To activate the orbit I now use the shift+left mouse button. Tomorrow a new lesson.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you Rob

[@robertbankhead8661]

re reviewed, great tips I've forgotten, thanks

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Eventually things stick, at least you know where to find me Robert.

[@EmperorsTeeth]

I've been putting off learning Fusion 360, I initially skimmed past your series on the search as the thumbnail looked less 'slick' than others... petty perhaps, but that's KZbin for you. Thankfully I figured it's a recent video, so I'll give it a shot. Really glad I did, so far so great!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thanks ET, welcome to the channel.

[@danbernskoetter]

This is my first try at 3D software and your instruction is very good. A little fast for me to follow, at least in the initial lesson, but I just pause and back track to pick up what I missed. Thank you.

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

I know the pace is a bit quick, I have to try to cover the material expeditiously to keep the overall length modest. But I rely on that pause and rewind function, and so far no-one has worn out the video player on KZbin. Keep learning!

[@kite7214]

Hi Arnold. I started the older Part 1 and 2 a couple of weeks ago and I think it is difficult for you as an experienced user to remember how unfamiliar everything is to a novice (like me), so I welcome your revised tutorials which are explaining things easier and S L O W E R. :-). I will watch them more than once and hopefully in 60 hours I will be up to speed. Thanks a lot cobber. Keith

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Good on you Keith, I do try to pitch them at a new comer but I don't try too hard to speak slowly knowing that you can watch as many times as you like for the same price (0). I'm going to work through all the revised versions which will probably take about a year at my current rate of production so you might need to finish on the older ones.

[@bobsolkovy825]

Absolutely love what you are doing. Your step by step approach is just what I was looking for. Any chance you would consider doing a series on toolpaths? Keep up the great work!

[@ArnoldRowntreeTeachesFusion360]

Thanks Bob, yes, I'll be doing CAM and CAE eventually but it'll be a while yet. I'm not quite half way through revising these tutorials which has to be done first, and I have plenty of ideas for the CAE stuff. I'm going to have to find someone who's good at CAM and work with them because its a learning gap for me. So yes, but not for some time yet.
