Fusion 360 | Case Study 27

[@loubano]

In every of your single tutorial, you are so amazing! !!!! You made all hard project much easier to understand 😃👍 Thanks a lot for your time and all your great videos 😃😃😃😃 Kind regards Cedric France

[@cjsveningsson]

I had the impulse of “perfection or go home!” for your tutorials, much appreciated! With that said, “pattern on path” seemed to become normal to the path on the circumference rather than center of the holes (and I don’t think you mentioned it). So close, yet not perfect 😋🤩

[@EuroRogue]

I absolutely love that you explain the multiple ways of doing things, that is extremely valuable

[@mirage3rd]

Your insight and detailed explanations are invaluable. Thanks

[@lukafh]

Perfect! As always! Thank You!

👍👍👍

Thanks I’ve used the circular array approach 4 days ago and had a little trouble to align the holes in my case. With the geometrical pattern it is much easier.

[@alaingrignon]

I’m looking to do this kind of dimple on a compound curved surface so this pattern option is fantastic. What I’m curious about would be, how to create these dimples as you did but also add a small fillet around the edge of each dimple. Would I do that before creating a pattern, using a surrogate or could I also add these after the pattern is done?

Nice way to achive this. Thanks!

you are amazing, keep the good work up.

I often take models in your tutorials and try to recreate them in OpenScad. The end result is often not perfect, but for this model I could recreate in about the same time as the video last. :-) This is all the code needed: difference() { Base(); Dimpels(); } module Dimpels() { translate([ 0 , 0, 100 ]) Dimple(); for(Pos = [1: 1: 4] ) { for(Deg = [0: 72/Pos: 360] ) { rotate([ 0, 7*Pos, Deg]) translate([ 0 , 0, 100 ]) Dimple(); } } } module Dimple() { sphere(d=8, $fn=25); // cylinder(h=10,d=8, center=true, $fn=25); } module Base() { translate([ 0 , 0, 78 ]) intersection() { cylinder( h=30, d=110, $fn=100); translate([ 0, 0, -76.6]) sphere( d=200, $fn=100); } }

salute sir

[@phamthohongduong]

Btw, how are you rotating the model so smoothly? Special hardware trackball or something? Thanks for the video

Looks like 3D spacemouse. It was mentioned on one of the previous videos, if I remember correctly.

[@Fusion360School]

Yes, it is a 3d iconnexion mouse.

[@rbyt2010]

Very useful! I should just go test this myself, but... :) Why did you need to create the separate centerline axis in the dimple for the revolve, given that you were already on the XY axis?

[@Fusion360School]

The centerline is to split the profile into 2 semi circles. The revolve would not work with a full circle. Using the centerline also has the added bonus in that it gets automatically selected as the revolve axis when you begin the revolve command.

[@rbyt2010]

@@Fusion360School ah right… I remember now; 360 revolve won’t work to create a sphere - special case. Thanks!

[@B3D]

I guess you are using 3D mouse. because mouse point not moving + screen move so smooth . I tried that buy realize quick annoying because if my left hand must stick on keyboard for all shortcut. may i know how you accross this ?

[@Fusion360School]

I actually use the 3d mouse only for presentation purposes, as the smooth motion is more pleasing to the eye. While doing my own designs, I don't really use it.

Hi, as usual, a great movie, I'm a bit off the topic;) but I'm already at the end of reworking all your movies;) and I have a question about the function that you sometimes use, namely Zebra Analysis, could you see a movie about it because I don't quite understand what that's what it's all about :)

[@conflictchris]

zebra analysis is a visualisation tool. it helps visualise contours across a body or surface as a whole, its like a 3D curvature comb. its ideal for finding C1/C2/C3(Joins, Tangents, Curvatures) consistences but also lets you see if you have a point where a convergence/discontinuity/‘pucker’ is as the zebra stripes will not be evenly spaced. hope that helps

That plastic extension shouldn't be a paid feature -.-
