I’m only at 3:41 and you’ve already earned my “like”. I never knew you could snap an offset plane to a point in that manner. That is super useful! Thank you.

[@Imercor1]

I just love your teaching style. So easy to follow your flow. Keep them coming, I learn so much from you. Thank you. 😊

[@chrisleech1565]

Two approaches that achieve the same result! in a practical design. Just fantastic! I am going to spend hours reviewing your content.

[@Fusion360School]

At 3:34, I really should have changed the extent to "to object" before clicking on the corner. If we leave it as "distance" and click on the corner, when we change the dimensions of the sketch rectangle, the offset plane will not update accordingly. Sorry about this.

Your tutorials are the best. Very clear, well narrated and detailed. I have learned a great deal from them. Thank you.

[@river2000sg2]

In the shortest time and learn the most stuff! Thank you for great videos.

[@rbyt2010]

Please keep the "Ruled Surface" coming :) I forget its there, and it is so useful. Thanks for the video!

[@joe_fabricator]

Unique and very practical examples. Amazing job again. Thank you.

[@zulsolar]

Impressive! Thanks for your hard work and for providing the starting model to follow along, very appreciated!

[@FrancoisMathieu]

Very informative, thank you!

Thank you for the support!

nice Video .... great job

[@ishanmamadapur6307]

I have always been perplexed by the 3 computer options while mirroring or in other features: optimised, identical and the third one that I fail to recollect. Would be great if we could have a comparison or a case study on which setting is most suitable to which conditions. Thanks!

[@chrisag2jz180]

hey!! good content and perfectly explained as always. I have a question though. are you planning to make videos about car/car parts designing . i haven't found any good videos out there. Either they are "concept" designs that look really weird or they are not really detailed!!

[@kittypctech]

We can also do this by lofting , Right?

[@Cicada-uv5se]

Could you try to model the surface of the Magnus "Toad" fidget slider? I am very interested on the complex curves of the surface.

[@alantch1]

Would it be possible for you to model a round louvered vent, like the one found in the early IBM PC?

[@Fusion360School]

I tried to google for a picture but could not find this. Is there a particular model no.?

[@alantch1]

@@Fusion360School Thanks for replying. Search for IBM 5150 rear air vent. Hope you can do an episode on it soon.

[@BeWithWasif101]

[@eedesign878]
