WOODWORK like a PRO! | Woodwork for Autodesk Inventor

[@justicejudah1247]

Neil, I can't thank you enough. Yesterday I got stuck at work. I was to render something for my boss and the image texture I applied was not properly done, it was frustrating. Then I remembered there was Neil and the tutorial on applying custom texture to tyres, I watched it and another of video of yours on texture and Tada!! I was able to fix my issue from there. Thankssssssssssssssssss. Please don't stop making these videos. I'm grateful 😊

I realize it's pretty off topic but do anyone know of a good website to watch newly released tv shows online ?

[@deangelolangston199]

@Landry Alaric Lately I have been using Flixzone. Just google for it :)

[@dannybishop872]

@Deangelo Langston yea, I have been watching on Flixzone for months myself :D

[@landryalaric5528]

@Deangelo Langston Thank you, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there =) I appreciate it!

[@deangelolangston199]

@Landry Alaric No problem =)

[@anthonyl.4742]

As amazing as this software looks the price is outrageous. I think ill stick to free 3d modeling applications for now.

[@lookin4OriginalMusic]

Unfortunately you have to be a part of a woodworking company for this event. It's pretty cool that this is put together for woodworkers for free! For those of us that aren't part of a company and are trying out the free software trial, thanks Čeli APS! Neil, thanks for all your videos as well. I was wondering if you planned on doing a video on Woodwork for Inventor outside the training session? I've seen other videos out there but it'd be interesting to see your take!

[@Neil3D]

Just curious, why would you want to go on the training if you're not in the business that its for? If you have an alternative motive which is valid, they might make an allowance! I guess they're putting that limitation on so that the spots are reserved for genuine potential customers!

[@tools4inventor]

Paul, contact us! As Neil says - if there's a valid motive - we'll definitely find a solution. Cheers!

[@lookin4OriginalMusic]

@@tools4inventor , I wouldn't want to take spots away from someone who needs a spot. I use Inventor for a variety of uses, woodworking being one. When I need to design something for a small carpentry/construction project or contract I will use it for woodworking. Right now I am renovating my own home and will play for the next couple of years with furniture and layout. If this is an industrial tool it is probably out of my price range (I would only be able to justify a couple hundred). I've seen some of your tutorials and have experimented with automation myself and it looks to be very polished (many man hours). I am definitely not in the appropriate industry (I'm a material engineer). Thank you for your time and the trial!

[@lookin4OriginalMusic]

@@Neil3D . Hi Neil, thanks! I replied below to Woodwork for Inventor. From what I've seen, this is a very nice product and it would save me quite a bit of time but I doubt it's in my price range. I paid my way through engineering school with small carpentry contracts and other construction. I saw a bright shiny new tool and wanted it!

[@ericmetcalfe1416]

Been using WW4INV for a year and a half, it's powerful but has drawbacks, especially at the nesting end. Gets better every update though and has been keeping our shop moving pretty well. Thanks for the video!

[@hishram]

Neil, thank you for continuously making videos on Inventor. All this while Autodesk seems to be planning on phasing this excellent CAD to be replaced by Fusion.

[@tomaskavaliauskas9166]

I heard from Autodesk, that Autodesk Inventor will be the main product and is going to be developed at the full speed and never will be replaced by Fusion 360. The reason is very simple, these two products are very different and will be different and are dedicated for absolutely different segments. Autodesk Inventor is a very professional tool with almost unlimited possibilities of 3d para-metrical design dedicated for professionals. Meanwhile Fusion 360 will be very simple with much more lower functionalities and dedicated for small usually family based business who need to have simple 3D designs. In general Fusion 360 at current state is absolutely green product and still missing a lot of very simple common functionalities, but despite this I like Fusion 360, because I am small furniture produce and Fusion 360 is enough for me. But Inventor is absolutely the best. Perhaps in the market there are two best 3d parametric mechanical programs - Inventor and solid works.

[@rahmathidayat-xj4bg]

the woodwork not show on tab menu. how to fix that

[@Alina-yp6ol]

Hello. I was watching many tutorials that you did. Few tens. You are very productive, Neil! Thank you!!!

[@arsharizalamirariff6137]

What else i can do after trial license expired for woodwork? Can i still using this command..pls show us

[@ricr.4669]

Is this easy to learn?

[@salkosafic8074]

Why doesn't inventor have various woodscrew available in the content library?

[@rickpalechuk4411]

Neil, are you going to more content on WFI? It would be great to see you in action with the program. We are a 10 license shop using Inventor for millwork and the problem we face is everyone does things a bit different than the next, so if someone has to edit another's work.... Well, you know... Trying to get the bosses to look at WFI. Cheers

[@Neil3D]

Not sure how much more I'll personally use it as I'm not in that industry, but get your bosses to sign everyone up on the free training here, there's literally nothing to lose and you could end up with a far better solution. And signing up for the training is a huge support to this channel too!

[@vincenzodirigano4481]

Wow that epic Neil, thank you for showing. I'm doing a lot of wood work for a company that builds concert and church organs (instrument). Thus a lot of wood involved. The third requirement of the course is it more meant to be aimed at professionals in general or dedicated to furniture designers?

[@tools4inventor]

Hi, Vincenzo, it's for people who can see a potential to use Woodwork for Inventor in their everyday work :) So you are welcome to register!

[@thanhdatnguyen6935]

Can we do a solid body sweep in the latest inventor ver? I have tried it couple of times but it seems to be impossile

[@gdatomic]

Would you recommend anyone that has good videos for inventor hsm? Or perhaps do you know enough to make a video on it? I haven't had much luck finding really good videos like the ones you do, just wondering if they're out there.

[@hainguyen4627]

Neil , thanks for sharing .i need to join your group so how do that?

[@hameddesign70]

What about CDM in vero alphacam ?

[@LuisCastilloArispe]

Neil, thanks for your videos, Do you know any webpage that anyone can work how freelacen? Ahh and I'm sorry for my English 😅

[@Vendetta_x7]

great job! thank you from RU

[@jasonrogers1675]

As always just brilliant. Thank you so much.

[@Kazsud215]

My job passed on this 3 years ago because we have in house stuff made from vb and ilogic. I heard it's very expensive..

[@Neil3D]

Well I guess 'expensive' is relative and up for interpretation, but after looking at how much this does, how much work has gone into it and the benefits it brings, I personally don't believe it is expensive for what it is.

[@mickmac00]

Hi Pete, another thing to bear in mind is that W4INV is not subscription based like Inventor, so you may initially spend £1500 to £1800 on a license depending on whether you want the CAM & nesting module, but after that you do not need to pay again, That said, it is advisable to pay a £250 (ish) annual maintenance subscription, which covers technical support and free upgrades - W4INV is upgraded every year in line with the Inventor upgrades. (prices based on the last time I put W4INV into a business)

[@Phynix72]

What a timing !! My friend belongs to woodworker family & begin to learn Fusion 360. He works from home & want a upgrade, should I suggest him CPU - R5 2600 or i5 8400 & for GPU - Radeon Pro WX2100 or Quadro P400 ? Worrying about software optimisation for this hardware environment !!

[@BrianLeeWho]

Neil mentioned in his last video that Fusion 360 requirements are similar to Inventor. With that in mind, Neil made an excellent video on hardware components in a workstation (for Inventor): kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqeziWN4rdGdjZY. It's a long video, but well worth the time to watch.

[@Devonian-gg7gr]

Neil I need some help I want to go into design engineering and dad in the future and I want to start learning now to gain skills early I am looking for a pc to allow me to start learning cad and be able to upgrade as my skill and requirements develop is your 350 quid build a good idea or would it need some adjustments or would i be better off either building something else or buying a whole pc I'm on a very limited budged (price of software isn't an issue)

[@Neil3D]

They 350 quid build is wayyyy out of date now unfortunately, it's a few years old now and the parts are obsolete. And again unfortunately the price of PC parts has gone up massively since then! I get asked this a lot though so I might look at doing a new one but the budget will need to be higher, minimum around £500 I think at this point.

[@Vaijykone]

Looks very interesting, thanks for sharing.

[@yuramel8303]

Powerfull stuff! Can you make video "woodwork for inventor in action"?)

[@Russellbeta]

Why is it such a damn struggle to find a ballpark price for the product.

[@jesscneal]

Pretty awesome software 👍👍

[@keithspencersr.6806]

Nice

[@emslvmoddslv4568]

And price for it ? I found it not ! Think will be very hot .

[@tools4inventor]

For the prices of Woodwork for Inventor please write here: www.woodworkforinventor.com/get_it/

[@Anonymouspock]

@@tools4inventor that's annoying. I and many others want to know the price within a factor of 10 to see if it is at all workable within the budget. Literally "is this $50000 per seat or $5000"?

[@tools4inventor]

​@@Anonymouspock If that will help you it costs less than $5k. Please understand that we have two types of licenses (with CAM and without), different pricing policy for regions and local partners who are ready to help with software and the training. That's why we can't answer right away every price request.

[@Numian]

Thumbnail - Blue Steel? LOL

[@Neil3D]

HAHAHA!!! YES! "I'm sure there's more to life than being really, really, really, ridiculously good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is"

[@romeliapolly5242]

I found some amazing plans for Woodglut. Just check them out.

[@BGV2024]

lame that the video doesn't say the price. probably too expensive and not worth it at the price.
