Fidget Spinner 3D Model Full Tutorial | Autodesk Inventor

[@Neil3D]

Dear all!! - if you're looking for a good computer to run Inventor, you may then be interested to know that I have now developed and released the worlds most comprehensive FREE benchmarking test for Autodesk Inventor with a global online leaderboard. See the announcement video here kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpTOZJ-sqrKFoK8 and check out the leaderboard here invmark.cadac.com/#/ - the test was 100% designed from scratch through to release by myself, Neil Cross TFI.

[@benardmacharia9041]

Hi. Great Video! I tried this on Inventor 2023 and I think there is an issue with the constrain part since mine fails to spin. Any advice? Thanks

[@soixantecroissants]

Instead of using the windows calculator you can just tell the pattern bar 360/3 for the angle. Works a treat.

[@bonnrhee]

Instead of using the calculator to determine the array angle of the bearings, you should just use "360/3" in the dialog box.

[@ivanllopis5882]

Perfect Neil! Love how you stick to the fashion, but however teaching us good modelling stuff!

[@shanismaili3526]

I have tried soo hard to make this, but i failed! Thank you for the class, and sharing your generous time!

[@eddrm4685]

Perfect timing! We just scrapped a bunch of old computers and I saved the hard drives for the magnets inside (also wanted to destroy them personally), when I was disassembling them I found a bearing that I think will work great in these. I hope to make a few this weekend for my nephews. Thanks for the video. Cheers mate!

[@johnyGREMLIN]

Respect for the Fidget Buffering icon :)) nice touch!

[@themis1444]

I never thought we would stoop so low 😂

[@themis1444]

Also can you do a video on exporting a file to retain it's colors given in Inventor? The best way I have found is to import the Inventor file into 3DS Max and export it as a .dae file from there.

My teacher wants me to make a fidget spinner for class lmao

[@manobrass]

It was worth watching the whole video just for the fillet. Thanks Neil!

[@nates8963]

Thanks so much for this video! This absolutely saved me on my Fidget Spinner project in PLTW

[@lopany]

I use ast bearings generator. because Inventor doesn't list the parameters when selecting. but after seeing the way you select I might give it another spin. Keep the good work Neil.

[@jeremyfincher7284]

As much as you do Inventor for beginners, I can offer you basic arithmetic for instructors... The calculator move will be long remembered!! Just love your shows - have watched them all and often go back on old ones for tips!

[@Neil3D]

I can explain... erm, I was off that day in maths class

[@roadsigncheems1566]

I’m working with inventor professional 2016 for my product modeling class and my professor has us learn our programs inside and out (I didn’t really understand cause you can’t learn much on the outside :/) but just watching you do this helped me get around as different as some stuff looks, thanks my dude.

[@jolaneey5338]

Seriously, I am a student of mechanical engineering and I have always been scared of 3D CAD systems. In school we havent had basically any lesson about that yet and everything was like "DIY" :D but your videos make me laugh and actually learn something ! Great job man!! :)

[@Neil3D]

Thanks for that, and you are an incredible singer, keep that up you really have something

[@jolaneey5338]

@@Neil3D Thank you! Really :)

[@ra1nning_]

mine said "Content Center query failed" when i reached the step at 11:54 of the video. can i have some help plz

[@theyoutubechannel2927]

Late reply but might want to go to your installer and see if you've installed desktop content, and check the location of it. Copy that file path into the settings in inventor

[@MathiasMassias]

Not only is this a great tutorial. it is also great entertainment :D

[@thinkingmonkey8083]

**Makes a tutorial video and prefaces it with "I'm not going to be explaining everything as I go..."**

[@danielwyzard7544]

I followed along right away, never used Inventor in my life. Funny comment, but not accurate he shows you everything you need to know.

[@Neil3D]

You probably can't remember writing this, I've only just seen it now. But I've quit doing tutorials and this is one of the reasons why, you've smashed the nail on the head. If I made a tutorial video and "explained everything as I go" then I got absolutely demolished by whiny ungrateful dense pricks with zero attention span complaining about too much talking and the video being too long. You can make a short tutorial without explaining things but they're generally shit. In the end I got fed up with it dominating my thought process, getting too self conscious about the length of the videos that I just packed it in.

[@takich9317]

oooo man, i like how he made it all comical, i was laughing whole video

[@ahmetyasar405]

17:58 see you make the drive th spin... there THE LEFT Side how can make that side appear in my inventor

[@charliebaker1427]

thanks for teaching me how to do my current project

[@jagvenne]

man, your work is good.

how did you do the custom buffering gif type?

[@leonelgarcia7327]

What fabulous and amazing videos!!! thanks for share!!

[@nicolasbroodryk3407]

Excellent tutorials. Thank you.

[@shrutivashist3573]

Sir, you are a Genius!!!

[@scottspeig]

I don't have BSI - and when I do the bearings bit, there are no options to select... Any clues?

[@scottspeig]

I'm on 2017

[@ajamit007]

During Inventor installation you get a option to install Content Center, select BSI so that it'll install BSI standard Content..

[@bonnrhee]

For most parts in the CC , I like to use the model and part number from the vendor I am buying it from. In most cases, I use www.mcmaster.com/. I will download the model, then use the same part number as Mcmaster Carr. It makes it much easier for the purchasing department.

[@onurozkul6933]

In my bearing generator, there is no default design. It is completely empty. Is it an addon to be installed seperately?

[@ahmetyasar405]

i dont have the component sector in the left where you basicly make all your calculations how can i open it?

[@MatteoFaralli7]

Well done. Thank you

[@MaxMax-vu5dw]

Any video on how to make a model that can print 2 colors combined?

[@DaBlackSpiritAnims]

If anyone is stuck on making the bearings like I was. Make sure the measurements are correct. Before you start making the part and again loading it in Assembly. Change the measurements from default inches to millimeters. Tools/Document Settings/Units/Length (inches/mm)

[@ananyasattigeri7540]

Dudeeeeeeeee! Thank you sooo fuckin' much.

[@bogdansheikh6424]

So Satisfying

[@guyfawkes8873]

I'm sorry but I started laughing out loud at the angle calculation part x) here I thought you were some kind of superhuman until this point ;)

[@signzonepr]

What is your gpu? Awesome

[@digitalmalayalam4391]

Sir I can't Assemble my figet because bearing box shows in inches what can ido

[@wiktoriamichalak9753]

Thank you

[@scottishhamster6330]

Hey Neil, I know this is a Decently Old Video, But can you either Make a Video or Tell me how to add Caps over the Bearings if you can do that? Many Thanks ZXAQXZyt

[@dooodi10]

excellent

[@skhumbuzocele1330]

There are NO bearing on the outer 3 rings of the fidget spinner. Any ways, thanks for the effort and video.

[@muhammadjunaid4697]

So nice oo

[@mtycoder]

thanks, coo, stuff

[@th33xitus]

Taking a calculator out for dividing 360 by 3 .... shit... gladly you know how to breath mate!

[@paulm.9105]

360 divide into 3... WOW!..

[@rajamurugank1861]

I really dono what's wow in that , that how it should be done right ?? or how you guys will do it ?
