Fusion 360 SHORT Tutorial For Beginners 004: Design with aluminum extrusion, import, project, align

[@rtoronto7637]

This is an excellent video! Actually, it is an example of how a how-to video should be made. 1) Every comment made was important 2) No fluff 3) Highlighted screen shots 4) Clear articulate language 5) No fluff Very well done!

I’m a 47 year old Tool Maker. I bought an Ender 3 V2 and found your page for Fusion 360 instruction. I wish you had been my instructor for Mastercam years ago!!!!

[@chris_thornborrow]

These videos are excellent work. The level of detail is great. No nonsense, no explaining, just how to do things. This is my new favourite tech channel. Great work, congratulations to you both.

You poked straight into the core of F360. With a vengeance. Straight, clear, easy understandable. Had to pause a couple of times and take a breath. Now I can just add the bits and design whatever, am stoked. You leave the competition in the dust, just look how you grow. FAN-TAS-TIC . Thanks for sharing.👏

[@HHI-ql3oy]

Without wasting a second, you explained very well.

[@alexbreaux4906]

wow been searching for a seires like this I have all the tenical skills and a design but though putting it into cad was too much and some videos helped improve my design

[@sledge57a]

Thank you for these tutorials, I'm new to 3d printing and your videos are all very informative. I don't know how old you are but I'm so impressed at your knowledge and ability to convey it at such a young age, I'm in my 60's and I'm blown away with what the younger generation is capable of. Keep up the great work!

You don't have to create a sketch from the imported STEP file. You can select the face on the imported part and Extrude it. That will create a new body, with the same profile as the selected face. Creating a sketch first is still a good idea though, especially if you need to reference part of the geometry in other sketches. Another tip is to use the McMaster Carr library of parts. It's available from the insert menu in Fusion. They have thousands of parts that include CAD drawings, that can be imported directly into the drawing in Fusion. I used to use it for screws, brackets and aluminum profiles in the past.

Some of the item they inches to convert that a bit of different size than create the extrusion profile by metric to create. I did experience when I use the printed parts from Western diy cnc and purchase the metric extrusion from Aliexpress which over size on the printed parts. Did anyone come across this problem.

[@janpetersen8441]

@@alberttang1748 I haven't experienced that myself. There can be quite a large variation on extruded profiles from manufacturer to manufacturer. The profiles you could possible have been made to a slightly different profile, or with different tolerances than what the step file assumed.

Thanks for this, your tutorials and reviews are the clearest and most concise I have found on the internet. Keep up the great work!

[@TheHerbBag]

You rock! Love seeing young women interested in engineering. Keep it up

[@gatoalfa7]

Thanks, I enjoy and learn a lot from the CAD tutorials.

[@gaelsortino8901]

Thank you for the clear English and clear instructions 🙂

[@avejst]

great walkthrough of the process 👍 Thanks for sharing your experience with all of us 👍😀

[@mattfaust4448]

Excellent video!

[@user-xb5zu6zu7j]

Awesome tutorial. Helpful to the point. Thanks!

[@Bigpopp1]

Thank you. Definitely going to make my 3d printer bigger with your videos

[@minty_lint]

Great work, I look forward to the next video.

[@sracer42]

This is a great tutorial. Thanks!

[@MacroSong1996]

nice turtorial, maybe maycad is also good choice

[@DennisMurphey]

so here i can see a way to convert my Dremel Drill Press into a Milling Machine with manual control but solid axis bearings and drive screw with hand crank. Wow you guys are so fast I have to back up and watch it 2 or 3 times, but that is ok It is here and I am slowly getting more educated. You are teaching a Grandpa!!!! Thank You Dennis

[@kaskasravi]

Very informative.

[@loubano]

Thank you very much for this great tutorial !!!!!!😀😀😀😀

[@ChirawatNg]

Very good tutorial

[@almostanengineer]

The place I go to for 3D models for extrusions is and Misumi, they are major suppliers of automation parts in Europe and have a configurator that you put all your dimensions in and then you can download the model as needed, and not have to do so much modeling.

[@franksiam2975]

very good .. i can learn a lot.. please more F360 vids

[@paulhoshovsky877]

Thanks. Do you have a tutorial on how to create the assembly of the machine shown at time 0:16? I am struggling to find a clear tutorial that shows how to place component assemblies offset from the middle of the machine. It must be so simple to do.... Thank for the clear approach to use the 2020 extrusion.

[@ewechailim5368]

Extremely LIKE this video. I learned up "ALIGN" tool + COPY and Paste "Body" and "Component". As well know the differences. Howver, i failed to simulate "Rigid Group" command. Thumb UP !

[@xylopal]

Great tutorial

[@L7TECHKILLER]

Awesome =) Thank you..

[@atcaotien5601]

you did a great tutorial

[@Morrigon666]

waw you amaze me! thx keep it up

[@jmwetterene7459]

super tuto bravo continue c'est magique

[@daveyJ213]

At point 4:30 in the video, can anyone tell me how to center this new sketch exactly over the center point on the drawing plane. I've tried to move there, but I can't get it to move at all. Yes, I am a newbie Fusion360 user. I'm trying to use this sketch to make end caps for the frame of my printer. Also, why are the lines green, and not blue or black? Is this sketch fully constrained? Thanks.

[@donaldhollingsworth3875]

What is the difference between a grooved & non-grooved aluminum extrusion?

[@AuroraTech]

You can open both images to compare. When you look at the inside corners, you will see a groove.

[@wartlme]

Freecad might make a good video.

[@cheapmod]

how old are you girl
