I have to say, your style of teaching is much more favorable than other tutorials I've watched. They jump right into making a 3d model, but you break down everything you do and explain the whys. I've tried sketchup, 3ds max, blender, and never seemed to understand 3d software. The newer version of 360 is much different than yours, but it's been a huge help to me nonetheless.

I am relatively fluent with Rhino3D and started using (paid for) Fusion 360 a month ago. I have been tearing my hair out trying to understand it's interface - communicating with various very nice and helpful Autodesk tech support folks in the process. They always refer the Autodesk tutorials, which didn't seem to answer my questions. After watching a few of your tutorials I sent an email to Autodesk suggesting they hire you to create their learning materials. Great job Paul. Keep making these videos!
@paulmcwhorter6 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the kind words. I actually think it helps to be a little slow at this. The problem is the autodesk folks are such geniuses, they have forgoten what it is like to be a new learner. They are really great guys, but maybe so far advanced they have forgotten how to get people started.

Even people like me who have significant experience in this realm (check out my web site - my name) might have difficulty (give up) when confronting the (currently) non-obvious interface of Fusion 360. I am glad that you are "slow". Your previous frustrations are helping many people use this powerful tool and be more creative. Also, if you don't already do so, before publishing a video, you also might want to pass a draft by few folks like me to help bring them to "absolute perfection". : )

Thanks Paul, for this flawless presentation. I have fussed with trying to learn Fusion 360 for two years and even with Fusion's excellent tutorials was still in the dark until I found your videos. You are a master teacher and I deeply appreciate you taking the time to teach Fusion so us old guys (professional designer for over 55 years) can get in on the fun. I never dreamed I would see the day that I could design as fast as I could think and then print it out in 3D. My design life started out ink on mylar and I became a master at it. But in comparison, a complicated design that used to take me 40 hours to conceive, rough in and then ink accurately now takes 40 minutes and can be done with perfect precision. I am so excited.

I had to quit that class and find another. These guys knew what they were trying to teach, and sadly had been at it for some years, but they were only there for the pay check. I was advised not to join those classes but I thought the informant was biased. How right he was. You my friend are so easy to understand. Man you're a breath of fresh air. Congrats once again.

Thank you, Paul. I've found several good videos of the basics of Fusion, but they all pale compared to yours. I guess being a math teacher was an asset. I'm a 74 yo retired electrical engineer, and like you, I started with Autocad many years ago (Acad 10 - DOS version) and quickly gave up. When I retired, I wanted to learn SketchUp, but for the simple woodworking projects I made, hand drawn sketches were lots faster. Then when I bought my 3D printer, I started using TinkerCad. However, since I wanted something a bit more robust, I decided to give Fusion a chance. So, finding your videos was a God-send as you really had the right approach to help me. Many thanks.

I went through at least five other training sessions on KZbin for Fusion 360. All confused me by jumping around, not realizing that menus may be different, not taking into account moves that might seem basic but if the viewer doesn't know them, they get lost, and many more issues. Some feel they can teach when they really cant. Applaud them for trying, but until I found your 1st lesson last night, I was totally lost. Though I'm on the latest version of Fusion 360, I was able to find where the functions that you used were moved to and see the differences in the version you used compared to the one I'm using. This is the first course that is making sense. Great detail and still very relevant for learning Fusion 360 today. Thank you. Excellent instruction. Especially nice considering I've never had any luck at learning CAD/CAM design software before.

I will admit Fusion 360 is one of the hardest things I ever tried to learn. Seriousely, over 20 years, I tried like a dozen times to learn some version of autocad or another. The thing was, the instructors were all speaking a different language. And, they assumed I already knew that language. Then, many of the tutorials, it was more like the instructor was trying to show off what he could make Fusion do, but not giving me any ability to do what he was showing. These videos of mine are a little stale at this point, and I will do a new series in the next month or so.

Great series Paul!!! I hope you don't stop until you've taken us through every nook and cranny of this program. I knew there had to be someone on the web who spoke my language. Glad I finally found you. You're on a roll. Don't stop until you get all the way to the end and we'll be right there with you.

Hi Paul, thank you for the effort you put in these videos. I'm sure they've upgraded since you made them but between you and google I survived and completed the project, I bought a course on this, and I was really pulling my hair out from day 1, being a teacher you came across brilliantly and explained things really well. The updates have changed the menus slightly but the shortcuts are still the same

Hi Paul, like you many of us have been trying to learn this program. I started tinkering with Fusion 360 about a month ago, after being pretty good with SketchUp. One tip that I learned that you may find helpful concerns getting back into the editing mode of a sketch. At about the 21 minute point in this video you were trying to get back into the sketch to edit it buy initiating the rectangle command (even though you didn't want to create a rectangle.) A simpler way to get back in the editing mode is to use the time line at the bottom left of the screen. You can see the icon on the time line for the different sketches (as well as other actions). Just right click on any sketch icon on the time line and click edit sketch and your in! Thanks again for your videos. They have helped me a lot. Especially the Linux videos for the RP!

What you are saying is correct, and I will admit, I am not completely comfortable with the timeline yet, so do not automatically default to that option. One of the skills I need to still develop is taking advantage of that feature.

Another great series! Just FYI, the most recent version (installed yesterday) has different menu structure and apparently doesn't work exactly as it used to. For example, I can't get the dimensions to reappear. So I'm encouraging you to do an updated tutorial series. This one is great - I've managed to learn more in 2 lessons than in all of the other times I tried. Thanks.
