This is one of the best Fusion videos I've ever seen. Most tutorials are just designing parts where the dimensions are known and are a single part. This was a great "building around real parts" demonstrations. Plus, very nice to see the full workflow.
Thanks a lot, that was a big part of what I was aiming for, glad to hear I succeeded in that aspect.
Totally agree! Thank you for awesome tutorial)
Real world example! Loved it, saved it and will rewatch it. Thank you a lot
I was thinking the same thing.
I agree. This is the most comprehensive video.
This tutorial was my turning point from being beginner level to becoming a intermediate Level. Thank you sir.
Could someone please tell me why this guy is not a CZcams superstar? Every one of your videos is a winner. Informative, calm, interesting and engaging. Above all, really useful and practicable knowledge. 👍
Thanks so much! I think I can answer your question:
1) I've only been on this somewhat seriously for 1.5 years. Most channels take a few years to really take off
2) Upload interval has been... inconistent at best.
3) A lot of the content is kinda niche, and something like this tutorial needs a while I think to show up in search. I've noticed several videos now only started to do well months after being uploaded. In fact my portable air conditioner window plate video is really picking up speed now.
I'll probably be quite inconsistent still for another half year or so, then I'll have more time to post. I'd love to take this CZcams thing fulltime, maybe one day. Thanks again!
If I was the boss at the place I work, I would hire this guy right away ☝🏼
This may be the best Fusion tutorials I have ever come across. Dude deserves a pay raise this was so incredibly helpful.
I think I've learned more from the first 5 minutes of this video than most of the other tutorials I've ever watched. Thank you so much.
Thanks mate. I can say writing a script for videos like this is very important, to prevent myself from talking about tons of irrelevant tangents. Great to know that it does work.
Incredibly helpful tutorial!
I've been learning Fusion 360 as a hobbyist and have been struggling with joints and animations that are based off of joints. The other tutorials show how to marry one or two components together, but usually not more than that, or they don't talk about what needs to be considered when editing joints part way through a project.
Going through a real project and having focused commentary on the topic was extremely helpful. It was beneficial to see a workflow that involved revising existing joints and keeping things organized.
Content. Delivery. Style. Speed. Everything...simply sublime. I think in Dutch, it's bewonderenswaardig!
This was such a refreshing tutorial, where it was challenging yet doable at the same time coupled with your guidance throughout the video, perfect! I learned so much and gained valuable experience on how to put together an assembly. Btw this was my first time attempt at assembly and I'm happy to say I nailed it!
That's great to hear, happy modeling!
In the first 20 seconds this guy speaks directly from my soul. I learned 4 different CAD-Softwares before and they have been somewhat simular but then i go to fusion and feel like a toddler.
Just discovered. Clear, concise, detailed. Awesome work. Keep it up.
I have resolved myself to put this video on repeat for the next while. Awesome workflow.
Absolutely incredible. Learnt so much. I am just starting out but have a project in mind. No other videos really shows me how to go about drawing up a complex machine. This has given me such a great start. New subscriber!
Thank you, I got many good tips. Never realised you could change material colours so easily and the component coloured timeline is great.
Good pace too, you covered a lot of ground quickly.
This video deserves more views, thank you so much, you cover the basics as well as the advanced stuffs in a streamlined fashion like a few other videos do.
Thanks for that mate, good luck with Fusion
Best video on actually working with assemblies I've seen yet. Thanks.
I was exactly in the situation described: able to model moderately complex parts for printing, but never attempted to assemble parts together into a complete machine. This was the perfect video for me. I'm absolutely confident I'll be able to do this now. If I forget how to do one of the steps of creating an assembly, I know exactly which video to come back and watch!
Thanks for putting this video together! I also really like you explaining your best practices for sketching, using constraints and mirror instead of duplicating dimensions, and why some parts should be sub-components. This video is a Fusion 360 mentoring gold mine!
Every videos a winner. Thanks Antalz!
Thanks for stopping by again!
Really great video! The video answered a lot of questions I've had around assemblies and joints and just general workflow.
Thanks for taking the time to put these together!
Perfect! Just what i was looking for. Thank you for this 😊
Absolut amazing! Better than every other tutorial of Fusion 360! Thank you so much!
What a great video! You have shown all common challenges I have met. Thank you, Antalz!
I have been using Fusion 360 as a hobyist for about a year now so pretty much have the basics under my belt which, is needed for this video. However I am amazed how easy it is to understand and follow Antalz's work flow. Everything is explained with an free and confident flow which for me makes the content easy to absorbe. Definitely a talent for teaching.
Thanks for that, you're making me blush
What a treasure trove of tips and tricks for Fusion 360. I've used this software on and off for years now and didn't realize there were so many little things that I missed! Thanks!
Your videos are pure gold to learn fusion, thank you very much!
Wow!! You did an absolute amazing job with this video!! Very educational.👍
Awesome video!!! This example is brilliant - you covered so many things just in passing that (as a hobbyist) I didn't want to watch an entire tutorials on. Thank you so much for putting this all together. I will be watching this several times :)
Thanks for that mate, that's what I set out to achieve
you have made it very easy to understand how to achieve complex structures with simply explained actions.
Thanks for this great help
You even answered a lot of questions i didn´t really know i had
and i like the styl how you modle without lots of skipping repetitive steps
Excellent Video! Wasn't planning on watching an hour video, but it kept my interest through the entire length.
Thanks, honestly encouraging to know at least some people go the whole hour.
Truly excellent video. Fantastic insight into your process, great tips and the tempo was perfect. Subbed, liked and shared.
This is great material, that cleared a lot of ideas behind fusion360 effective workflow. Thank you!
Your videos are so informative and easy to follow. Excellent!
Thanks a lot!
Coming from Solidworks, working with assemblies in Fusion360 has been infuriating! You're video has shown the correct way to do everything I have been doing wrong. You have also shown some new features I didn't know existed. Thank you SO much for this video!
Thanks you! Fusion360 is a bit weird with joints vs mates for sure. I do think some complex movements are much more feasible with mates than with joints unfortunately, like cam-track movements. I don't have much Solidworks experience though.
Hello, thanks for this video, it's really great. I'm learning the component/assembly thingy and found this video, I was planning to learn on joint too after, and I got all that in one video.
Your explanations are very clear and you show everything.
Luuna.
Thank you. This video has taught me so much. I now see that I need to be using joints rather than align and have a much better idea of how to do this. I think I'm going to be watching this video again and again.
Thanks! There's a lot of info in this one so rewatching some sections could be helpful. Align does have its uses by the way, I used align to put the teeth on bevel gears in my video on bevel gears
I hope you continue to make these videos, the best I've found on youtube so far, by quite a large margin (beginner).
Thanks for that, I do still want to, but still quite busy with other things unfortunately. Are there any Fusion topics in particular you'd like to see?
This is the best exhaustive and focused tutorial I have seen,
Thanks a lot, glad you liked it
Thanks man enjoyed watching your work flow good way to stay organized!
exactly what I was missing, thank you 🤩😁
I would like to thank you for providing an excellent tutorial session and sharing your knowledge. I also learned new tricks. I will look forward to new assembling tutorial sessions from you related to CNC machines or others , etc
Thanks a lot, I don't have any further Fusion360 tutorials planned but maybe it'd make sense to make a few more. They take forever to make though
It' is just a matter of time for this channel go 100k+ subs, great content man!
Thanks so much, I hope that with work, patience, and improvement it will get there eventually
Big thank you! Assembling has become fun...
You made this tutorial 2 years ago. I just went through it today and it's still SUPER useful! 👍
Thanks a lot! Thankfully not that much has changed. I think mirror can now instantly do combine too, so you don't have to do the operation separately. That's the only change that comes to mind, at least when it comes to this video, so that's lucky I suppose!
This video is amazing, thank you so much for making it!
Best tutorial for Fusion360 in CZcams
After 4 years of using Fusion, creating 150+ drawings including a fully animated 3D printer that I then built, I feel I have JUST learnt to use Fusion after watching this. Thanks, loads!!!
Thanks, cool that you gave a tutorial a chance even when you already had that much experience!
The best fusion 360 tutorial I had come across,as a beginner , learned lot of stuffs from your video👍
Thanks mate, and best of luck with Fusion360
Awesome video... very very helpful 'real' world situations and using all the Fusion toolbox to achieve things. Thank you for this!
you're the real MVP in teaching fusion. thank you so much!
You're welcome, good luck with Fusion
Thanks for creating this video. It answered many questions that I had on Fusion 360 construction.
My pleasure, glad to know it's helpful
Wow! What a great, extremely helpful video! Packed with tons of great tips and illustrating a very practical example. Thanks!
Thanks mate, great to hear!
Thanks for the great video, bud. Coming into Fusion from Onshape has been bewildering, but your example here really helped to straighten out a lot of the assembly concepts that make Fusion unique.
Thanks mate, and that's a good reminder, I should still check out Onshape and SolidEdge community to see how they stack up against Fusion.
Thank you so much for this tutorial video. I appreciate your effort!
As a French and speaking very little English I followed most of this wonderful video, very clear and very educational thank you very much
Merci beaucoup! C'est la meileure Francais que je parle.
Wonderful wonderful tutorial! I've learnt q lot of tips and tricks! Thank you very much! :D
Thank you I have learned too much things frrome this video ❤
Amazing demo!
Enhorabuena. Mejor no se puede explicar. He aprendido algunas cosas muy interesantes con tu video. Te animo a que subas más ejemplos de conjuntos hechos en Fusion 360. Un saludo!
Wow, I learned so much from this video.
Thank you for this video. Best Fusion 360 video on youtube :).
Super interesting!! I learned a lot of tricks! Thanks for this video!
you're a great teacher, keep up the great videos
Thank you, and I will for the foreseeable future!
Spot on - so many other presenters wonder way off topic and waffle so much that it’s impossible to learn. I love this channel.
Great video!
Eindelijk iemand die het duidelijk uilegt, hulde!🙏 It was driving me nuts.. 😱
Thank you so much from an F360 noob who is designing a 3D printer. This was super concise and very thorough 🙏🏼 new subscriber!
Thanks so much! Good luck with the 3D printer, that's quite ambitious
@@antalz this will be my third build but the bed will be 750x750 on my new one. So pretty epic 🤯 Your video is helping me test my design before I start cutting extrusions.
i've learned more in this video han i have in a week working on my own. Thanks.
I agree with SenoreQueso! The best Fusion 360 tutorial ever. Thx Antaz, pls make more videos like that. Really appreaciated, Thank you!
Thanks! I'm hoping to get back into videomaking, but no Fusion360 videos planned yet. Any topic you'd like to see covered?
Love the content man! Saw your still active in the comments, hope you get back to making videos and helping people like me! Thanks.
Thanks! I do check my CZcams studio from time to time. I have a script ready to go but I keep putting off actually recording. I'm busy with other stuff too, but it feels like I'm making excuses for myself. I'm not sure why.
Incredibly helpful tutorial! Thank you!
Glad to hear, thanks for watching
You sir, deserve many more subs, as IMHO, you are one of the tops in F360 instructors...if not the best. Bravo! And please, keep them coming...for not only educational advancement of this brilliant software using your workflow/methods, but for sanity's sake as well!
Thanks a lot mate! I'm hoping to get back into things next year.
@@antalz That's fantastic! I'm sure we'll all be anxiously awaiting for more Fusion mania! :)
Thank you, much appreciated tutorial!
Nice Video. You also covered other options as you explained the main topic.
You earn my subscribe. Great video man. Keep them coming.
Thanks, I hope to get back into it early next year
Thanks for the wonderful tutorial
I thought I would jump on here as a user of Fusion360 and say that I love your teaching method. Speed and pace are perfect for me. I wish I had found your channel sooner.
I do have an issue though with the redefining the sketch plane for the bottom plate, there are a number of compute errors when I follow the instructions. Any pointers would be amazing!
This is so informative for practical modelling!
Most videos I find do not dive into minor things you require to practically 3D print or Build the structure ( like the spaces for the nuts, screws etc).
Thanks again for making these videos!
That was one major reason for me to make this video, a lot of tutorials seem to just focus on what the buttons do. I wanted to also include how to make something you could actually put together, and I wanted to show when you would use which button. I also wanted to cover the different ways to get new components, new component, copy, paste/paste-new, patterns, mcmaster-carr imports, components from other files. It seemed to me a lot of tutorials just made 2-3 components and a joint and called it a day.
I feel like I should do a short followup on getting tolerances in Cura. I specifically want to highlight horizontal expansion and hole horizontal expansion in Cura, especially because many people have undersized holes and pockets. I sure did before hole horizontal expansion was introduced in Cura 4.6
@@antalz A video about tolerances would be amazing!
@@antalz A tutorial for tolerances in cura would be so helpful! Thanks man!
@@antalz This was an awesome video, great to see an actual assembly being made from start to finish. I didn't skip a second, there's a lot of nice features included! A followup on tolerances during printing would be greatly appreciated, I always struggle to model in my tolerances, and print sections of my assembly to check these tolerances... There has to be a better way!
@@guidowassenaar Thanks a lot! Currently the better way I know is to set the horizontal expansion such that your external dimensions are good, then set your hole horizontal expansion such that your holes are good. For me it's -0.1mm horizontal expansion to make parts a tiny bit smaller, and 0.1mm hole horizontal expansion to make the holes a big bigger.
I should probably put that answer in video form, because it gets asked rather often
Thank you for the excellent tutorial!
Awesome video. Thank you!
Thank you for telling about screw animation, sir!
I mean, this is just amazing. I've seen u don't upload in some time, but u really should continue with this fabulous content. Thanks mate. It's fine if u don't have time to record videos, because your private life should come first than youtube, but if u do have time, pls continue with this amazing work. We need more people who work like you. Thanks! Amazing!
Thanks mate, I'm hoping to get back into it but it probably still isn't going to work for another few months at least.
@@antalz, youtube must not be a priority, but if it works all together it will be nice to have you back!
a good video as always
Thanks for stopping by again!
Nice and detailed
this was a great tutorial on how to use fusion 360 efficiently! I love how you make it looks super easy, it inspires me to continue learning and maybe someday switch my profession from software engineering xD
That sounds great! It seems like a difficult switch to make, but here in Europe people do get very hung up on what degree you obtained.
Thank yo so much for this tutorial, it was a pleasure to see how and why various elements/functions were used in real time, please make another video around assemblies in Fusion Many thanks again
Thanks! Is there anything you'd like to see specifically? I'm looking to make some videos again, but I don't have anything on Fusion360 planned yet.
only been doing 360 for a year, would help if minor detail was omitted , focusing on joints, then going back over filling in detail, still this recording takes me to a new level 😍😍👍👍
Thanks! It's a difficult balance, not every person watching is at the same level, yet you also want to keep up the pace.
exelente video for learning, i have learned a lot of funsion 360 and on the video
Thanks for watching, good luck with Fusion360
Good content for new learners.....
Thank you!
thank you so much for a good video. I'm really like your video, and I hope you will make many of the best videos.
Thanks mate, I hope to get back into things at the start of next year
Great presentation. I'm subscribed now!
Thanks mate, and good luck with Fusion
Wow ! Thank you a lot !
Great video. Thanks so much!
You're most welcome, thanks for watching
기계원리를 만드는 과정이 힘들었지만 아뭊든 영상 잘보고 갑니다
Really informative. It's nice to see that I can have the same things done differently. I've learned a lot. Thanks
Yeah there are often a few ways to achieve the same result, which can be powerful but also confusing. Thanks for watching
This was both one of the most useful and most frustrating videos ever. I learned a great amount from it, but your screen size is such that I can't read everything, and you often get comfortable in what you are doing and say things like "let's connect this and this" and I can't see what was happening and you didn't call it out verbally. Having said this, I learned more than I set out to learn and I am very appreciative of you making this video, thank you.
Quite unfortunate about the resolution, I honestly hadn't considered how things would look on other screens. I also do speed up a bit, that's a tricky balance between pacing and clarity. If I go too slowly then some might find the tutorial really long-winded, but perhaps I went too far to one side in that balance.
Thanks for your honest feedback, glad to know it was useful to you nonetheless
@@antalz I totally get how pacing can be hard to balance. I found I can slow down youtube videos and that helps in situations like these. Plus I can always back up and see it again. As for the unreadable details, as long as you call out all the part names and features and don't use terms like "this and that" or call things "it", then following isn't that hard.
Please continue to make more videos, this was very helpful regardless of my issues.
what happened man...your fusion videos are awesome why did you stop making them? thank you so much....this was worth gold to me
I took up a job basically. Things slowed down a bit in the meantime, so I'm hoping to get back into it. I've been saying that for a few weeks now though... Any Fusion360 topics you'd like to see covered?
Thank you real part
thanks bro
Do you haveany specific video for contrains? I learned by trial n error and i have decided to learn the correct way so i can design more complex parts. This video really helped with assembly, thank you for that
Great Video! congrats, I'm trying to switch from NX Unigraphics to Fusion 360.
Cool! Why are you making the switch from NX? Did you use it at your job?
This has been the clearest explanation of building an assembly in Fusion 360 and keeping it organized that I have been able to find....and I'm posting this comment not even halfway through the video.
Bravo.
Thanks a lot, I hope you enjoy the rest too. It's also in large part why I made this tutorial, a lot of videos will show you two components and a joint, but don't show enough to see how you can structure a project correctly.
@@antalz That's exactly right. Once you see it it makes perfect sense.
The other thing that isn't immediately obvious and really easy to create a mess with is sketches in the main body.
Once I saw you create a component right at the very beginning of the project to contain sketch 👍.
@@Bluelude1 Yeah that's a very common way to start a mess. I actually do it on purpose in my bevel gear tutorial, but many beginners do it without good reason because nobody ever tells them it's a bad way to start.
