Modeling a FRAMED SHED in Autodesk Fusion 360

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Hi everyone! Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below!

[@wsmall2010]

Great video, as are all of the tutorials you’ve made. Could you go into some detail on how to find midpoints? I think I found it in the constraints bar, but I want to make sure I am doing it the most reliable and efficient way as that will likely be an important tool for many.

[@Daniel-zw7pg]

Hi! Great videos! Do you have a model for a Pergola? Thanks from Sweden!

[@RicoSjet]

Hi, I really like your tutorials. I'm a newbie to Fusion360. This one was exceptionally useful as I'm busy designing a chicken coop. Using the pattern function to create all the beams is fast and easy. I predefined a lot of parameters upfront, so I can control the whole setup (LxWxH) at any time by just changing the parameters. Number of beams is a calculated parameter (e.g. I try to space them out around 50cm) . Now comes the part I get stuck. I want to cut out a few windows from the patterned beams at a specific location (eg. somewhere in the middle, fixed position from the side and ground), but when I extrude the window, or combine, all beams are affected... because all beams are 'linked'. Another issue is, when the dimensions of the shed change (increase = more beams, decrease = less), then it all goes nuts... Perhaps it's my design strategy in the order of applying the features... I wonder if you have an idea or workaround? Thanks.

Excellent video on laying out dimensional lumber as I jump onto Fusion360 to make a treehouse for the kids. Thx

[@keifertomkinson]

I am just starting to learn now. Its a mine field but that's for making it easier.

[@jonathanconway7256]

You killed me with the 18" spacing. Didn't know they made 108" plywood.

[@oldNavyJZ]

My thought as well. So good, and yet that made the whole thing a major fail. Would be a great video if he just asked someone what it should be. Instead, we have to wonder how many people tried building sheds with studs 18" on center.

[@mhoover]

My first thought was very early when his first rectangle wasn't a multiple of 18 inches, like 8x12 feet. I thought uh oh this guy's not a builder.

[@KevOXO]

Thanks for the showing how Fusion 360 can be used for regular projects for people that are not building their own death star using 5 axis CNC.

[@jacobfalk4827]

This made me laugh so hard XD

[@xJackHunter]

lmfaoooooooooo

[@EclipseCeLL]

I know i wanted a 5 axis cnc before, but now i REALLY want a 5 axis cnc xD

[@robertsenski5441]

Awesome Justin! Puts construction design with Fusion in perspective. Tks! Bob

[@dullvoicereader]

Super helpful! I was figured that Fusion 360 had this capability, and I'm glad you showed the step by step process of how to utilize it.

[@3dtomecoates92]

Thanks so much for this video. I'm fairly new to Fusion and have been doing a number of KZbin tutorials. This was one of the most applicable ones I've seen. Great job!

[@Ma-Nuu]

It's great you started this Fusion360 area. This channel will go up if you stick to it for two years. Very helpful for creational craftsmen and diy-architects.

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Thanks! :)

[@Sam39855]

This was so helpful. I'm new to CAD and want to use Fusion 360 for detailing a house frame, so this video is the best thing I've seen on youtube for it. Thanks.

[@donramsey9112]

Good video. There is one thing that is important in framing that would be good to include. The rafters should be directly over the wall studs. Is there a way to tie the rafter pattern to the wall stud pattern? BTW, usually studs and rafters are on centers that is a divisor of 48 so sheet goods can fit over the framing without cutting. That would be on 12, 16, 24" centers.

[@BrianStreetUnity]

he states in the video that he knows the framing isn't necessarily correct, and that this was an exercise in modeling not building, there was plenty more wrong with it, no king and jack studs under header, no double top plate, corners were framed in backwards, etc etc. it was meant to teach you how to model a buildings framing, not how to frame a building.

[@mohammadjawadafzal1941]

Thnak you. It was very good fusion lesson for beginners to understand. Keep posting such nice videos. Awesome job dear.

[@dhess140]

This is a great example of a top down design. I am going to practice using your techniques on my garage design. Thanks!

[@moustick2025]

I found your video sometime ago but it is so good that I keep it as a reference and now I am back for a refresh class. thank you for your amazing video.

[@narmcop]

Fantastic video just getting into Fusion from Sketchup . I'm an avid woodworker and would not have had a clue about fusions' power if it wasn't for your very clear and precise tutorial. thanks so much and please keep them coming thanks again - Neil Armstrong

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Thanks a lot Neil - really glad you enjoyed the video!

[@anetworkservice]

Thank you. This was very helpful. I'm trying to layout components and materials inside of a car trailer that I'm refurbishing. I haven't quite figured out the right method to get there just yet. I'm going to try and catch up on all your more recent videos and look for one where you hopefully are working inside the structure. I want to layout ceiling and wall sheeting, lighting, switches, etc.. The electrical seems more important for me to sort out, so I can move on to putting on the wall coverings. This was my poor man's way of getting an expensive car trailer. Buying a water-damaged mess, gutting it out, replacing the roof, and refurbishing the insides. This was really informative with lots of shortcuts for the duplication and even providing a materials list... Fantastic work!

[@rainforestnomad]

Thank you very much for this! I followed your video and I've been modelling my very own shed blueprint, which I am planning on building soon. This is a great exercise and I appreciate very much your video.

[@SaulSalt]

I am really loving your wood working tutorials for Fusion. I really hope you keep making these.

[@panchora99]

This is a good video. Great content, easy to follow instructions, little to none introduction blah blah that other people have.

[@jeevesme]

@16:25 Fusion automatically locks horizontal and vertical projected views. If you hit the SHIFT key and it will unlock it so you can move it anywhere you want.

[@RaymondPieroway]

I’ve just discovered your videos and am really enjoying them. Very helpful. Really clear instruction. Well done

[@robecarb1300]

Great job! I like the quick way you go about building this, thank you!

[@Asylum3D]

Hey thanks for these construction videos. Building a custom workbench for my garage but wanted to visually see things I would or wouldn't like before doing the build. With your videos it was pretty easy to get some ideas going. Thanks again!

[@James-vq9nc]

Great show Justin. I'm in the process of building a garage extension and this video was very helpful. Thanks.

[@triskel653]

Exactly kind of tuto i was looking for. Short, well explained. Thanks so much.

[@ApexVideoChannel]

Thank you sir!!! You put out the best instructional videos!! I learned Sketchup from your videos and have used that software a lot. Now learning Fusion 360 in hopes to do some cnc work. Good to see I can use this for the other projects just as easily!! Keep up the great work!!!

[@iMacGoogle]

Thanks from Germany. My first experience with fusion 360. It very helpful for me!!!!

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Awesome - glad I could help!

[@creditkevin]

I'm brand new to woodworking and fusion360 and these videos are awesome. I would love to see more projects that using the "change parameters" tool because it seems to make workflow for projects like this a lot faster and more organized.

[@davidquirk8097]

thank you. It's good to see Fusion 360 being used for something that I'm likely to be doing.

[@dave7203]

Great video! Looks like I'm going on a KZbin binge again.

[@denniskusters3556]

Thank you very much ...great video. Greetings from Holland

[@maus5514]

Thanks was looking for an instruction how to build a shed in fusion much appreciated!

[@chappycole5372]

Excellent video, as usual. I'm learning many, basic design strategies (how to build this, how to duplicate this, where to click, what sketch plane to use, etc.) little by little. I would love it if you made a video specifically to teach the fundamental methods for successful modeling in Fusion 360. It seems like an incredibly powerful tool, but with such power comes complexity which means there are 100 ways "to skin a cat".

[@dts7824]

Very helpful, didn't realise you could do all that in fusion.

[@eoinoneill2962]

Hi Justin have been following you from the SketchUp days. I am from Ireland and love your videos. could you do a gambrel roof in fusion 360 that would be great. Keep the videos coming.

[@Meyoyo777]

Thank you for the video, i am familiar with fusion for industrial, and just now getting into house construction drawing.and framing Good help tha thank you

[@carman32377]

Awesome Video. Thanks for sharing this. I hardly knew anything about Fusion 360 before I watched. Just so happens I'm in the process of building a shed. I learned a great deal from your video.

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Glad it was helpful!

[@blue3559]

Thank you for all this cristal clear tutorial.

[@ericmugpro]

Amazing video!

[@TheStrafendestroy]

Wow this is exactly what I need thank you for this content!

[@duraki1]

I'm new to Fusion 360, and designing my house remodel as a way to learn it and complete architectural drawing for the building department at the same time. Your video is just what I needed to help me get started. I am working on foundation drawings for the concrete work. If you have the time a video on how to sketch that out would be a life saver! I've done a layout sketch but am stuck on how to turn it into a 6" x 24" footing with j bolts and rebar included. The framing I am doing is double wall and I am filleting the corners so that my insulation will wrap around the entire wall construction. I have to meet California Codes or better and am trying to meet Net Zero energy efficiency. Any basic tutorials for this stuff would be helpful. Plumbing, Electrical etc. would also be helpful after I complete the foundation/framing drawings. Super helpful video!

[@epicnaturals4763]

this was great. just learning fusion but didnt consider doing large scale stuff with the program. cant wait until i can fly around the screen like you do. I had to keep pausing and going back. took me 2 hours and probably dont remember half of it haha

[@steveestabrooks941]

Thanks for this video. I tried other tutorials and yours are very easy to follow. Keep up the good work!

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Thanks - glad you're finding them helpful!

[@davidw1324]

Great Video. Thank You

[@TheLameSlave]

Great video!!

[@oneroomproductions7788]

Great video, this is eaxactly what i have been looking for. thanks.

[@paulreinhardt6052]

Whooowhats’s Up Justin! 😀 Wondering if you could put together a tutorial for creating a small project for a laser cutter. How you’d build a small box, with tabs etc specific for laser cutting. Thx!!

[@ghxy5696]

Thanks, Justin.

[@Scarecrowking]

Treasure video, thanks a lot

[@zulucharlie5244]

Great video - very informative.

[@mokhirev]

Thanks, very useful!

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Thanks for watching!

[@jackuk4431]

Amazing video! thank you!

[@RolandKönig-p3j]

Excellent video!!!! I intend to make a little garden shed for my kids. Only on question: I did these kind of drawings till "yesterday" in sketchup - within sketchup there is a possibility to deal with several styles (like freehand, different line types, ....) Is there any possibility in fusion 360, too? Thx

[@ftijpi1533]

Thank you! extremely helpful!!

[@cymbaldeals]

Great video and explanations!

[@parkerdarren1990]

Would like to know if you could do a tutorial on building a steel building and components.

[@ELECTRICMOTOCROSSMACHINE]

Awesome!!!

[@damiencutrupi4411]

Good work. Really helped

[@miguelzarco9905]

Awesome video, thank you

[@ingGS]

Great tutorial! Please make one with reinforced concrete.

[@giuseppe1912]

hy, nice video, but in the table is not so right to have scheduled the mirror one, because they are the same of the origins. What you can do to avoid this issue?

[@samkemper]

Thank you that was super helpful

[@josemurillo4963]

Justin are you still making more videos and turorials

[@kke]

Would be mighty nice if you could use variables in component names or even better, if fusion could somehow figure out the lengths of each component for part list automatically and maybe intelligently decide which ones are identical.

[@Zfrostyone]

It helped! Thanks

[@mattneumann571]

I am coming from a solidworks background. Is it normal practice in Fusion360 to leave the components un-"jointed"? I notice that as you modeled it you can still drag everything around. Thanks!

[@Zazquatch1]

Brilliant. Is there a choice between American viewing and European viewing in the Drawing mode?

[@alexg9527]

Great job! Thank you!

[@machaf]

Wow. My mind is blown.

[@kke]

I have a question. What did you do to the bill of your baseball cap and why?

[@rupangchannel888]

Thank you so much, I'm first start when 03-12-2021

[@rightwayweldingfabrication7890]

Really helpful video thanks for sharing give you a subscribe and like. Fixing to build a shipping container house and trying to model it on fusion 360 first. Downloading it now so an absolute beginner.

[@harrisgaming320]

Can you do an in-depth shed build including sheeting and cut list

[@mattb7895]

Will you do a video on truss design in fusion.

[@mhoover]

Why doesn't anyone use perspective mode? Those iso views make me crosseyed.

[@jimheimer]

Hi Justin, Great video !!! I'm brand new to Fusion 360 and a wood worker. Is there a book to reference all the functions that you used in this video or is it best to play back the video step by step to learn each move? Thanks again. Jim

[@PossumMedic]

Is there a reason you use 2x lines to find the corner of the rectangle? For example at 1:56 cant you just draw a rectangle from the bottom right corner and dimension it?

[@toolsaddiction]

Good video, picked up a new trick, but framing with 18” on center ouch! :p

[@forfengeligfaen]

Thanks for this. How did you draw the line from the midpoint at 4:10? I can't see the ⃤

[@joelgodin-woodworking4395]

When you are in sketch mode, and your top component is active (Shed), when you bring the cursor midway into the floor, the triangle for midpoint appears. If the top component is not active it will not catch the other components. (it will kind of ghost them)

[@puntabachata]

Why 18" spacing if sheathing comes in 48" widths?

[@keepitrusty]

Any chance of a video showing a Fusion workflow of a 3D model to a 2D form for laser cutting?

[@garychwatuk301]

great tutorial

[@MrJohnspro]

New to fusion, enjoy your videos. Following along spacing out studs going back later trying to cut out for a window seems to be a issue... change one and they all change can't even erase them they all go. Is there a way to take a component that you moved and copied and keep some individual or decommission so that they can be edited without compromising the rest? Thanks

[@danielmetzger3520]

I want to draw a house with concrete pillars. It annoyed me that Fusion 360 automatically merges everything into one object. 'Create component' is the solution. Thanks for this professional video

[@AniDuBes]

Thanks for this! Hard to find tutorials that use the application's newer interface. I'm looking forward to new videos. Maybe model a workbench or miter saw station?

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Ooh - I like the workbench idea - thanks! :)

[@gmyatko]

So once I selected a 2x4 and copied it across a span, now it wont shut off. I finish sketch, and start a new component, etc., to build the corner, then when I pan out, I have 8 more complete corners. I try selecting and deleting them, and it deletes all of my corners, etc. It also curiously shows the copied 2x4's with opposite rectangle buttons that allow me to free move them. How do I totally escape from the rectangular pattern command?

[@LarryBerg]

The header would be a 6x12 wouldn’t it?

[@JHarris]

Hey Justin, I am completely new to fusion 360 and have been going through your woodworking tutorials. They have been fantastic, but I am finding an aggravating issue with fusion, and I'm sure it's gotta be 'feature' but it's annoying me like crazy. I have looked elsewhere and googled things but can't find anything specific. When drawing a sketch, and then drawing a line or 2 point rectangle, I can type in the numbers in the box, and then immediately after typing a lock appears next to the entry box and it takes wherever my mouse had stopped moving instead of matching the length I entered in the box. If I try to go back and edit the box, the numbers I type are red and won't change. The only way to change it is to finish the box or line, then go back and double click on the value to change it to the right length. Why is it being locked somehow?

[@redxyoshi7374]

thank you so much

[@jschilder0001]

I want to create an object that rather than being perpendicular to another face, is at 30 or 45 degrees. Can't seem to find how to do that. Can anyone help? I've looked at a ton of videos but can't seem to find anything. Thanks in advance!

[@frantisekvopicka441]

Perhaps as an example of modeling techniques, video could be used after some reservations. However, a real shed built according to this design would not last, and it would be a pile of battens after the first wind. I'm not talking about snow at all, that's probably why there is no finished roof.

[@LouAdzima]

Man you don't know how many times I tried to do this.

[@ТимурСамигулин-г7и]

Отлично, спасибо! Чертежи это интересно!!

[@TheFusionEssentials]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@patricktsoi2021]

Hi , your video tutorials are great! i can't draw a rectangle properly (in 1:58), it can't draw it in Z-X axis. the rectangle lay down on the surface of Base Flooring!!!

[@ToxicSocietyTroll]

Need more details for beginners.

[@OldePhart]

Nice presentation - a little too fast for me and assumed I know more than I do, but I'll play it a couple times.

[@TheFusionEssentials]

You might want to start here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZm7eaKqeblrpJY , or here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmKTop5qgtN0gZI - it's a bit slower - thanks!

[@moderntouchfurniture]

Justin can you do one-on-one training, I need some assistance with some simple projects? There are many Fusion online tutors, but I'm having problems finding one that uses Fusion for woodworking which requires a different skill set.

[@davidcarter8932]

18" module? You will need to cut every piece of sheathing on the roof. Try to use a module of 4' for framing spacing. 16" or 24". Then full sheets meet on framing members.

[@Despiser25]

The version I just downloaded doesnt seem to match with the things youre doing. For example when I simply click a new sketch my view doesn't change from the 3D view to the 2d view Confusing EVERYTHING. You guys that do these tutorials make it seem so easy yet when I simply try to follow along Im bombarded with different options than you show.
