Jordan, thanks so much for these videos. One issue I'm having with Mortis and Tenon is that the mortis is not translucent like it is in your example. It basically looks like a rectangle is cut out but I can't see the outline if the Mortis. Any suggestions on how to address ?

It took me forever to figure out why drawing tools weren't snapping to vertices and significant points (midpoint, etc.) You need to have the "Auto project edges on reference" enabled in the "General -> Design" area of the F360 Preferences... I wasn't able to get my 45deg line to snap to the top corner _at all_ until I did a ton of searching and tracked this down.

Thanks for the tutorial on woodworking joints. The mortice and tenon, tongue and groove joints were a great help. I'm very new to fusion 360. I would not have thought to cut the grooves out then extrude them back in and join. I can now see the advantages to creating components rather than just creating bodies. I need to learn more about jointing other components for assemblies. Very nice. thanks

Good stuff. Thorough & comprehensive. I'm just starting w/ Fusion 360 and this was helpful. I am struggling w/ something: I am building a bench out of 2x4s and want to have a 45 degree mitered brace that might start from 12" below each corner and go at 45 degrees up to meet the bottom of the table top. I'm sure I'll figure it out soon enough... It's a journey.
@blahdiblah21694 жыл бұрын
Thanks for making these videos. After watching the entire series I can now say with confidence that I can model everything I need to using this tool. And I have to say Fusion 360 is not without its quirks, but overall it's imho the best tool out there of this kind for woodworkers. Once you understand it's all about sketching and extruding you're 90% there. A few things this product falls a bit short on are : a) Snapping. I find snapping is hit and miss. It really tries to snap to grid, but has a difficult time snapping to edges. b) Parts list. Basically using components isn't enough. The parts number is not what identifies and binds components together as one type of part. No, what you have to do is clone / copy existing components, then you will see correctly adjusted quantities in your parts list. And mirror copy doesn't work either, this will create a new kind of component. This is something from a programming perspective, which is easy to solve, and maybe we will see this fix in future versions. c) Sometimes when you draw a new shape over an existing one, and finish the sketch it will create not 1, but 2 surfaces for you, then you need to select both before you extrude. I guess this is a bug, because there's no logical reason for this. d) You need to be careful, because join operation when extruding will join with any connected material, not just the edge you're extending. I found this a bit counter intuitive, but I guess this point is subjective. e) Back to snapping you really need to be exactly sure of what you're doing and check and recheck your snapping, zoom in all the way if you have to, because from my use, I've seen sometimes slight variations in the lengths of my designs, and I have to redo them after later inspecting and measuring because my start points were off, even if it looked like I had snapped correctly and tried to be careful, clearly not careful enough. As I said it tries to snap to the grid, not the surfaces, which can cause problems.

@michaelporter99402 жыл бұрын
Thought to throw this in for anyone asking this question. (Thanks to Justin for all his stuff. Very helpful to me personally.) Struggled with this in the beginning and trying to help. RE Bodies v. Components. If you are making a cup....and do not expect to want to model it with a saucer... then you can (if you wish) keep it as a body because it will not need to interact with any thing else. But if you do want to be arranging bodies with other bodies....make them all components and arrange and join those instead. There are features and tools (such as joining and articulation/movement) that are available for components that are not available for bodies, and components have their own independent origin. Lastly...using components FROM THE BEGINNING allows for a better organization as the sketches related to developing the body (which will still be a part of the component you make from it) will be organizationally inside that particular component.... making it easier to find the sketch you are looking for. I typically have no shapes that are left as bodies because I immediately make them components from the first basic shape I extrude. When you create your FIRST extruded shape....you are offered the choice to save it as a body or a component. I always choose component...and then name that component...and switch to that component to further develop the form. Then when I want to make another component I reactivate the top level component and create another component there so that my components are not nested within each other...but instead are all nested alongside each other inside the top level component (which becomes an assembly when you have more than one component in it.) That way the timeline for each component stands alone and is complete all the way back to the beginning of it's development. If you wait until a body is in a partially developed form (Is ANYTHING ever truly "finished and final"?)... and THEN turn it into a component.... then the timeline for the full shape development will be "broken" and stored in TWO places A- The top level component... and.... B- The component you created from that original (possibly partially developed) body. My two cents for what it is worth.

@rolling_marbles4 жыл бұрын
Don’t forget you can use construction lines and projections to make things easier. Also, you can do assemblies as well, but that may be more than needed. So for example, the mortise and tenon. You can use two construction lines, one vertical and one horizontal for the center, then use a center point rectangle constrained to the cross point of the two construction lines. Projection will allow you to project a body, component, or lines from another sketch onto your current sketch. Just one example of many ways to skin the cat.

Looking at these wood joints I’d like to think it would be easy as you’ve explained them so well but it’s the added dimension of an odd angle of cut that I’m struggling with. Great if you could do something along those lines. I am new to this but, already subscribed.

I have just started to learn Fusion 360 (Non commercial use only-Free) but every time I do a project like copying your joints and it needs more than four individual components the components turn pale blue and if you click on it even with the select tool it disappears totally. It appears to be a number of component issue as when I copied your bookcase, as only one component it was fine.

On the mortise and tenon joint around the 9:15 mark you put in a reference line centered to help you center the cut out for the mortise. Your line tool indicates center of the edges of the outline of the board, but mine doesn’t do that. I have no indication of where center is. I just eyeballed it for now to move forward with the tutorial. Is there a setting I need to change so it will show me center?

6:35 When you create the new sketch, your viewport / camera centers on the component you are sketching onto. For me, this action enters the 'plane' and 'sketch mode properly', but the camera centers on our miter join where the document origin is, rather than the plane of our new component. The new component moves WAY off camera and i have to pan to find it every time. I have 'auto look at sketch' enabled in preferences, its just that the 'sketch' it looks at is not centering my camera to the correct location. Can anyone help me with this? 12:28 - when he makes the Mortise visible, the outline for the tenon joint is outlined. For me this is not the case. I can't find a setting for this anywhere, so advice here is appreciated too!

Just kind of the way I've always done it from when I first started to now.

And then you need to do them again, again and AGAIN every single time you create a new model because Fusion is BS. Get Solidworks. You can create an intelligent feature library where you create these joints ONCE then you add them to your new models by just telling "i want this joint" then you select the features that define the size and location for the joint that you defined when making the feature into the library and it'll create all the geometry that's needed and adds all the parts (screws, hinges, what ever) needed for that feature. I'm never going back to fusion nor Inventor... this is how CAD should be, do something ONCE and then just reuse it again and again and again. And Solidworks isn't event hat expensive anymore. You can get the hobbyist version for ~20€/month or so and there are no limitations in functionality except that you can't open hobbyist files in "real" Solidworks...
