This is definitely the best Fusion 360 set of tutorials on CZcams.
That is very nice of you to say. We are honoured, and will keep trying to make tutorials for ones like you :)
@@learnitalready He's not just blowing smoke - you not only explain "what" to do, but also "why" to do it. Not enough tutorial makers understand that.
These tutorials are fantastic. You’re a very good teacher and I like how you don’t just get the job done, but you show how to do it properly with the bill of materials, using the right tools.
Thanks so much for your kind comment! Happy that you’re benefiting from them and liking our content. Stay tuned for more.
This is firstclass fusion 360 tutorials. I like that you show mistakes and how rectify them.
That is a first class comment! Thank you so much for your encouragement and support. We all make mistakes don’t we. I’m producing the next tutorial in this series. Hope you enjoy that too! Thanks again!
Thank you for videos like this. I really appreciate the focus on proper workflows and component creation for woodworking and construction type projects. This was very helpful! Cheers!
You’re most welcome. Thank you for your support and encouragement. Glad that you’re benefiting from our tutorials.
Thanks!
Thank you so much!!!
Different components were created on different planes. I've not seen it discussed before and do believe that it made your sketches easier as you did actually have a purpose in selecting the planes that you did. Please create a short video explaining the selection of planes to use as it will add to the knowledgebase that we would all benefit from.
This is fantastic… one of the best CZcams tutorials I’ve ever seen on fusion.
Wow, thanks! Hope you enjoy our other tutorials too.
@@learnitalready I’ll be binge watching this tonight. I usually model parts for cameras and drones and I can hold my own in fusion in my little niche. However I’m currently beginning a home remodel and was just curious about modeling the project before I did it. After watching this I’m hooked on the idea.
@@ElectricaDroneCo Very cool! We would love to see any renders of your final project. Once you’re done, please feel free to send it to us so we can post it on our Facebook page.
Can't tell you how many tutorials in Fusion I have watched. But yours are by far the best. Great workflow and it's helped me tremendously.
Wow, that is really nice to hear! Thank you. Stay tuned for more… lots on the way. Please consider sharing and becoming a member since it really helps us grow this channel. All the best with your learning.

- greetings fellow teacher :), "Mr. 'Learn It!'" (a.k.a. Dan?).
- GREAT VIDEO. thx.
- i particularly like that you established GOOD PRACTICES and CONVENTIONS, and followed them. too many students just "wing it", which leads to "less-than-optimal" results :(
- also, i like that you stressed importance of determining/creating components/hierarchy BEFORE doing sketches, etc.
- the last two comments are things i stress in my teaching, too.
- i'm sure many people have benefitted from this video, and your other offerings.
- now, off to watch the other 2 parts! :) ...
We’ve been Swami’d!!! Thanks for your valuable input.
Awesome teaching! Not too quick, properly explaining and giving some of the why too. Hope you create more.
Thanks so much! Hope you enjoy the next two tutorials we’ve published too. There are more on the way. Stay tuned.
Can't wait for the rest of this tutorial, learning through real life project is the best way I think!
Awesome! Thanks so much. Just working on it as we speak!
Great stuff. I eagerly await the lesson on modelling the Eiffel Tower 😎
😂 “and now for my next tutorial, which is 43 hours long… the Eiffel Tower”
Liked and sub'd. As a hobbyist/newb to Fusion360 and CAD in general, these tuts are great.
Awesome! Thanks for letting us know. Stay tuned for more!
Great tutorial, learned a lot, again, thanks for sharing...
Thanks so much for your comment! Glad you benefitted from it.
Very helpful tutorial. I'd like to see it to completion. I've learned a lot of easier/better ways to do things from your channel.
Thanks for putting out the quality of content that you do!
Wow, what a nice comment! Thanks so much for taking the time to tell us. We are so glad that you’ve benefited from them so far. We are looking forward to producing more soon. All the best!
Great Tutorial. Thank you. Please continue.
Excellent! Thanks so much for letting us know. We will do our best.
I’ve watched a few tutorials and messed around a bit. But you always learn something new watching how someone else thinks, organizes, and processes. Thanks for the great video.
Duplicate with joints!?! Mind blown. Haha
Thanks so much for your comment. Glad that you learned something new from us. Its true, we can always learn something from someone else; I’m sure we would learn a lot from your methods too. Keep up the great work!
My exact thought - DUPLICATE with JOINTS - that is a pretty slick button that i had no idea existed. SIde benefit is sometimes it provide opportunities to practice updating the snap points 👍👍
Great video, clearly and understandably presented. Looking forward to more tutorials ;-)
Thanks so much for your comment. Glad that you benefited from this one. More to come.
@@learnitalready Let me share one observation with you. I've been following the "fusion 360 tutorial" channel since it started. Your videos are much more sophisticated in every way. However, "fusion 360" has gained 70,000 followers in 2 months. It currently has around 80k, but the average number of views per video is lower than yours. The difference is in the viewership of his "short" videos, which have gotten him 90% of the viewers. I don't know if it makes sense to have a high number of followers, but they aren't loyal to him and don't contribute in any way to helping the video maker himself... to the point where it seems like self-deception to me. In any case, I'm trying to help. Your videos deserve to be all over the Fusion community. :-)
@@Kojotous007 very interesting observation. Thanks for letting me know. I will check out that channel too. Lots to learn with CZcams. I appreciate your comments very much. Thank you!
Seriously, keep doing what you're doing. This tutorial is fantastic. Instant subscribe. And even though I've got a little bit of Fusion experience, I'm starting to work through your tutorials in order to get a better foundation.
Great to hear! Thanks truly for subscribing and for your support. Glad to know that you are benefitting from these tutorials. Hope to keep helping ones like you that are so appreciative. Keep up the great work!
(Swami Fusion)
- you gave MANY GOOD TIPS along the way; now allow me to offer some of MY TIPS...
(btw, you may already know some of these, but simply choose to omit them, since you can only fit so much into a video, and even don't want to include too much.)
- hopefully, readers will benefit from these tips...
--- easily move thru items in 'browser' tree via cursor arrow keys up/down, plus left/right (close/open container).
--- can enter 12', instead of 12*12.
--- in 'Parameters Table', enter 3/4": 'Expression' will display as 0'- 3/4", instead of ( 3 / 4 ) * 1 in. just a lil "cleaner".
--- 3 ways to display units: 'Preferences>Unit and Value Display:Foot and inch display format:DECIMAL/FRACTIONAL/ARCHITECTURAL'.
--- w/ 'MEASURE' (hotkey I), click value in dialog: copied to clipboard for future paste (ctrl/cmd+v); note: no visual indication, but does get copied.
--- to select component in viewport (which is sometimes more convenient), simply double-click - then, can rclick:'Isolate', or 'Unisolate', etc. - no need to hunt thru a busy browser tree.
--- for 'snap selection' in 'joint', can also hold ctrl/cmd to restrict to face initially hovered over.
--- can be handy to use sh+n to do 'Component Color Display' toggle to quickly make things easy to distinguish.
- anyhow, thx again for your efforts, and sharing w/ the community.
(Swami Tipster)
- as for ENTERING VALUES, numbers are not actually being entered!
- instead, a 'literal string' is being entered, and f360 is parsing it (interpreting the value).
- this is why ANY valid unit can be entered. and, if none supplied, default unit is used.
More valuable input. Thank you!
I am looking forward to the new BOM update too!
🙏🙏
😃
I would like to see the remaining tutorials. Thank you this is excellent.
Thanks so much! The next is in production. Stay tuned!
Great, clear tutorial. Would like to see the rest of the Shed. Thank you.
Thanks so much! Stay tuned for more tutorials on the shed.
Building a truck slide camper loved the video!
That’s so cool! Would you be willing to send us renders? We would love to post them on our Facebook page.
Very well done. I have some basic fusion experience however your tips are a great addition to my knowledge. I am glad I stumbled on this video and I will now go to your "Learn it" home page and go through each one you have. Again Excellent video and explanation on the step by step. Keep up the awesome work.
Thank you for your comment! Glad that this tutorial has been beneficial to you. Hope our other tutorials have something in them that you can use too. Please consider sharing our channel to others. All the best!
The instruction and overall direction you provided were amazing! This was a very comprehensive tutorial and I appreciated it very much.
Thank you so much! Great to hear that you enjoyed our instruction. Hope that you benefit from our other tutorials also. All the best!
cool tutorial, learned a lot. Please move on and finish the shed series!👍 Thanks!
Thanks so much! Stay tuned for the rest soon :)
Yes, I would like to see further tutorials about this shed. Talk about timing. I am learning Fusion 360 right now. I am preparing to build a similar lean-to shed (concrete foundation) for my 80 gal air compressor. So I will become a patreon. Thanks
We really appreciate your comment, encouragement, and support. We have at least two more planned for this shed series, and hope to have them released soon.
Sounds like you have a good project you’re undertaking. Good job! I would love to see the finished project if you would consider sharing some pictures.
Thank you so much for your support via Patreon. We very much appreciate your generosity.
All the best with your learning Autodesk Fusion and shed project.
Wow , great tutorial , that was so useful!
Thanks so much! Hope you enjoy our other tutorials too.
It's funny, I've used revit and am currently working on learning fusion 360. I can see why they made revit for building and the similarities. Being a carpenter, a couple of tips .. 2nd top plate is not stacked above the first top plate. Also, the corners with triple 2x6s is the old way. 2nd top plate goes on side wall overlapping back and front wall to "locl" the walls together. The new way to do corners is to turn the 2x6 so that the wide face is perpendicular to the wall. With that said, great video. Oh, and recommend if you have an accurate bill of materials, call the local lumber yard, send them the bill of materials, they will spend their time tondeliver the materials to you. This will save your HOURS of time and typically orders over $500 are delivered for free. Do finish the shed as im interested in the quirks on the bill of materials! Great job.
Awesome comment. Thanks for the valuable input, suggestions, and current code.
Stay tuned for the BOM tutorial. I'm excited to get that one out too. Please consider sharing our little channel. All the best!
@@learnitalreadyYES! Please do the BOM one… i was so excited to see how the bom was going to turn out. I’d love to see it! Thank you so much!
@@andrepadua4979 Stay tuned!
Awesome job, thank you for sharing this knowledge with us.
My pleasure! Hope you enjoy our other tutorials too.
Thank you for this. This is just what I needed.
You’re most welcome! Great to hear this was just what you needed. Stay tuned for the next tutorial in the series to be released.
Top plate must stagger to lock the two walls.
Nice observation! Thank you.
Very helpful. Thanks for making a great video.
You’re most welcome! So glad you found it helpful. Stay tuned for the next tutorial in the series.
Nice! please continue!
Thanks so much!
I've change of career and now taking carpenter classes. My project being to build tiny houses or vans. We don't go so in depth with fusion 360. Keep up with such good educationnal content, you're helping my dream come true. Thank you !
What a special comment from you. Thank you! Much more to come. Stay tuned. Please consider sharing our channel.
The same to me. Changed bright comfortable office to cold dirty hangar, now doing metalworking. Never felt happier before. These tutorials helps a lot building gates, fences and other metal constructions. Big thanks to author of these videos, you help us a lot!
Greetings from Latvia.
@@JurisStolbovs Awesome! Thanks for the comment and your support. We would love to receive some pictures of your current projects that you’ve made with Fusion. Nice to hear that we have supporters from across the globe. All the best with your learning. Please keep those nice comments coming our way!
@@learnitalready I watched all three videos of this playlist during working hours today, and my boss didn't even get any complaints.
I will send some pics of projects for sure, when I get anything significant to share. It would be great to get similar tutorial of building metal construction with columns, beams, diagonal struts including Fastener insert option in Fusion360.
Thanks one more time for your work and helping our dreams to come true!
Great video, it really helps a lot. Looking forward to the next part. Keep up the good work.
Glad it helped! The next is soon to be released. Stay tuned.
Keep em coming!
You got it!
Very nice tutorial. Thank you!!
Thanks so much!!!
Learned a bunch, thanks!
Great to hear!
Great tutorial!
Thanks so much!
Great tutorial, but it would have been even better if you had shown how to make this parametric. Right now if you wanted to make this a different size shed, say 10x8, then it would be pretty difficult.
Thanks for your comment! That’s true, if everything was parametrically driven then that would be quite the feat. Maybe if your comment gets enough likes I’ll create a Udemy course teaching how to do just that!
@@learnitalready I was watching this thinking about how I might make the shed with parametric (nearly) everything. As a beginner, I've got a ways to go to get to that point. But this video showed enough to understand the basics of parameters and get me curious and excited to learn more. Great stuff.
Awesome Tutorial!
Thanks so much!
Great !
Thanks!
thanks
Thank you for the comment!
Your how to do videos are great..Can’t wait to watch more. Where can I find tutorials on this shed build? Thanks for your hard work
Thank you so much! The next will be ready soon. Stay tuned!
Good stuff! :)
Thanks! Hope you like our other tutorials too 😃
Please continue
Thanks. Will do! Stay tuned. I can never turn down a request from Barney Fife!
I have learned a tremendous amount watching your videos. In this one in particular, I've learned how to properly assemble using the snap points (and most importantly how to SELECT the snap points). I appreciate the organization tips for assemblies. I have one question which you may have covered in a seperate video (and if you have covered it - can you simply point me to it as opposed to answering my question here?) ....... Is there a strategy of which plane we should start our sketches on for a new component? When does it matter, and/or when doesn't it matter?
Thank YOU! 🙏🙏
Thank you so much for your encouragement! So glad that you have been benefitting from our tutorials and applying yourself to learning new techniques as well.
Regarding which planes to select when sketching, basically I follow the principle of creating my 3D model to the same orientation as the drawing I’m working with. Following that principle helps dictate which plane to select and which direction to initially work with.
If you’re not working from a drawing, then it’s totally up to you to decide which plane to start on. Just make sure that you get into the habit of creating your 3D model on a good foundation so that whenever you hit the Home button on your view cube, your model will orient in a way that is easy for you to work with.
You can check out the Parametric Tire series to learn a little more about which planes to select and why:

All the best on your journey of learning! 👏
@@learnitalready Perfect 👍. I have not had a chance to view the tire series yet, but I will do that soon. I’ve been watching your videos non-stop all afternoon today. You are such a huge help. Thank you.
yes please
Thank you!
Thanks, I love to watch your tutorials, in this one I Finished to to build the Floor but in the drawing I see only the concrete. ???
Hello! Thanks for your comment. I will have a full tutorial in the future to teach how to make sure our drawings show exactly what we want them to. Stay tuned!
Great content as always ❤.
I am really interested to know which software you are using to capture anx edit those tutorials.
I am a total noob, and I am eager to learn to be able to create such awesome content as yours one day 😊
Thanks so much for your comment! I would love to make some tutorials on Final Cut Pro one of these days. Actually, the main reasons I started this channel were:
1) help my Fusion students
2) learn to do video editing
It has been incredibly fun to learn the video editing side of things too. Stay tuned for some new kinds of tutorials in the new future relating to manufacturing in general not just Fusion. Very exciting!!!
@@learnitalready Thank you for sharing your journey with us 🙏.
Your edits are amazing by the way and you are AWESOME bro 😎
@@GGGG_3333Thanks for the encouragement! I’m far from awesome though. Just glad to have ones tune into our channel that are so studious and willing to learn new things.
(Swami Cadster)
- it's unfortunate that BOM doesn't like 'Mirror' (or at least behave as one might like).
- yes, copy/paste can be a workaround - BUT, might not always be appropriate: when item truly is a "mirror". do you know a workaround for this case?
- btw, as you may have seen, there's a new BOM feature, in latest update (v2.0.18, march 2024). i suspect it just automates the process, and likely still "suffers" from the mirror issue, but haven't investigated, yet. hm?
Will investigate soon!
18:25 Why do we have 13 joists in the project but only 12 in the diagram?
Nice observation! We will answer that in an upcoming tutorial. Stay tuned!
Is there anyway, without external plugins, to have BOM in Fusion? It is really incredible that you have a mass calculation for a product but no option, that i see, where you can simply list material dimensions.
Thanks
Hello! There is a way, but it isn’t fully automated. I have just finished the next tutorial in this series (part 3) and hopefully will release it in the next couple days. Once we are finished the entire shed, I will make a tutorial on creating a BOM and full set of drawings. Stay tuned!
@@learnitalready That is great. Thanks a lot.
@@SasaRakezic You’re most welcome
How are you moving things around so quickly without first clicking on the move tool?
Hello! Check out the description. You’ll see a link to 3DConnexion products. They are amazing to use. I recommend them!
@@learnitalready Will do, thanks for the reply 👍
When extruding the runner why did you use (12 * 12) * 1in?
Nice question! 12 inches multiplied by 12 feet. The total length of the runner needed to be 144 inches long. This is just the difficulty of using imperial measurements for woodworking.
Curious as to why you arent drawing some of the items in place, for example the joists origin plane would be the front rail.
Excellent question! Thanks for your comment. You will need to watch part 2 to see when and why I select to utilize in-context design.
Just a question for clarification, @ 33.25 when you are offsetting the double studs (14 and 15) why is the offset in the Z axis? It seems that it should be in the X axis.
Awesome observation! So, the reason why it is using the Z-axis is because that is the orientation of the snap point itself, not the orientation of the master origin. Whenever you snap to something, a new origin (or coordinate system) is applied to that component. This may sound confusing, but you will get used to it. It is especially helpful for components that are not inline with a particular axis (on compound angles for example).
@@learnitalready Well, when it doesn't do what you expect and you see where you actually put the offset, you can make it work. I was also banging my head against the wall for awhile trying to get the the back wall to join properly with the floor. When I went back to your instruction there, the part where you Isolated the floor before you created the "rigid group", had slipped by me. I just used the select tool but didn't properly create a rigid group and as a result, every time I tried to join the back wall to the floor, the back runner and concrete blocks stayed where they were and the rest of the floor went to where the wall was. When I was originally doing it, I gave up after about 20 minutes, and after several hours, I went back to find that I hadn't actually created a rigid group. I then went back, isolated the floor, created the rigid group and now I'm ready to proceed to the next video.
@@musoangelo I admire your efforts. Please know I have wanted to give up many times too. I have done the exact same thing as you in the past where I would sleep on it, or give it some time, return and try again. It amazes me how our brains are designed to figure things out with a lot of thinking things through, and also giving ourselves time to rest. Never underestimate the skills that you are learning right now by doing what you're doing. You will be a pro in no time. Keep up the awesome job!
@@learnitalready Thanks for the encouraging words. I did find that email address and sent one your way a few minutes ago. Hope to hear back.
@@musoangelo thank you too! I will check it out and respond asap!
At 21:52 I spent a half hour trying to get that to work with no luck.
I think I know why. Have you tried to hide your first block before adjusting the snap point?
@@learnitalready It was interesting in that holding the control button didn't allow me to see the hidden points. I stopped for the day and today, I immediately saw the points but was getting an error message. I controlled z to a known point and then individually copied the 2 center concrete blocks and was then able to place them correctly. Thanks for the response. I sent a couple of bucks your way and will continue to to work on learning from your vids.
@@musoangelo We really appreciate your support. It is good that you found out how to rectify errors using snap points, especially with existing joints. We really are glad that you have been learning from our tutorials. Thanks again for your support and kindness!
@@learnitalready Thanks for the reply. I'm starting to work again with my 2'X4' burntables plasma table, retrofitted with Avids, control consul and Mach 4. Not sure if you're familiar with that software or doing any, fee for service work. If so let me know.
@@musoangelo That sounds like a nice project! I used a similar controller to Mach 4 for a shop that had a CNC router. I think you'll be excited to know that we have a special series coming up in the next couple months where I teach someone from the ground up (he knows very little about CNC, but is an awesome handyman) how to model, setup, program, adjust the post processor, and run his plasma table at work. We will do a test recording this Sunday, and then start the series next Sunday. I'm hoping to have 2 months (8 episodes) to help him get to where he needs to be.
If you're looking for someone to do some work, I would be happy to consider it. Please check out our business email on our CZcams homepage. Looking forward to hearing from you.
I decided just the other day to download fusion360 and design my screened in gazebo/ deck build (so extremely new to all of this) is there a shortcut to get you snapped on to corners? I sit there zoomed in to like 100000000x and it’s still jumping around off every other line it can find before maybe hitting the corner bubble 😅
Awesome! Did you get the personal version?
Would love to see your completed design.
Yea! The personal version as I’m just designing/ playing around for myself! I was watching the second video and it also reminded me I have a second question, when sketching a box how do you add 2 measurements? I can only do the single which leaned to me having to run 2 lines then joining the box that way haha 😅
should it not be 13 joists. as shown on the drawing?
Great observation! Yes, it should. I was debating whether I should put a little asterisk on the screen as to why, but I’m hoping to explain it in another upcoming tutorial. Very good eye!
The video is 39 minutes, it takes 10 minutes to get to the main issue, the main issue only takes less than 10 minutes and then it's back to rambling.
Thank for your comment. Even though your feelings differ from the majority of comments for this tutorial, we still appreciate them and will continue to try to improve the quality and brevity of our videos. All the best with your learning.
Thanks!
