Re: Fusion 360


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý


As for training, I've tried everything -- Youtube videos, Udemy classes, etc. I think the video that David Best did of the cabinet with the drawer slides was excellent, so count me in the DB video fan club should he do more (please do more David).

Thanks Kerry. ?I am working on a new Fustion 360 tutorial series now specifically oriented to the woodworker. ?The new series will be all about designing cabinets with drawers/doors using parametric attributes to define all the various characteristics.?

I have also subscribed to the Product Design Online??which has a bunch of online courses on using Fusion for woodworking. It's the best I've found of anything geared to woodworkers, and I've tried them all.

I too have looked at all the available training videos for Fusion 360, and feel that the woodworker is not being well served. ?If you like Kevin Kennedy¡¯s teaching style (I do not), then his Product Design Online course is a good one, although a bit more conceptual in nature than what I¡¯m trying to achieve with my YouTube videos about Fusion 360. ?But at least his tutorials are based on the newer UI. ?So many of ?the YouTube tutorials on Fusion 360 are based on the original user interface design. ?The Fusion 360 user interface was upgraded and changed in significant ways a few years ago, and if you¡¯re trying to follow along with some of the older content, it can be very disorienting because your screen doesn¡¯t exactly match that of the instructor.

One of the frustrating aspects of climbing up the learning curve is where to go when you get stuck. ?Nothing stymies the motivation more than to end up in some cul de sac getting unexpected behavior and not knowing why or what to do. ?To help will this I am assembling a list of YouTube resources to turn to when you do get stuck of just need more clarifications. ?It¡¯s a growing list, assembled as I go along in the tutorial development. ?I¡¯ve posted some of this in my YouTube video descriptions, but I¡¯ll attach the current version here for use by others.
