- čas přidán 16. 08. 2024
- In this tutorial, you will make a parametric box for additive 3D printing or subtractive manufacturing. You will learn how to apply several skills from previous tutorials to make a functional box with lid along with threaded inserts and screws. This tutorial has a bunch of tips and tricks along the way that can help you apply the fundamentals of CAD and design to create something practical. With the box being parametric, you will be able to adjust the size, and wall thickness to accommodate any design requirements.

THANK You for the Awesome Tutorials You've made ...
I've been watching fusion 360 Tutorials for more than 4 years now ...
- and except couple of people such LARS Christensen , PAUL McWhorter, "Clough 42", "Fusion Essentials" , "the HardWare Guy" and now You, don't have the native talent to Explain such Complex Program - like Fusion 360 - using simple words and simple commands ...
I was able to Follow and Reproduce most of all yours Examples despite the fact that English is not my mother language ...
You Have My Deepest Respect and my Gratitude for Sharing with us from Your knowledge ... THANK You
Please Don't stop here ...
Bless You and All The Best
What a nice comment to receive! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain what you appreciate about our channel.
We hope you benefit from our other tutorials as well! Please consider sharing our channel. Also, we would love to hear from you in our other tutorials too to see how you’re enjoying your journey of learning Fusion.
All the best!
@@learnitalready I Thank You for making time to Replay ...
What I forget to say the last knight, maybe the Most Important thing , is despite the fact that we are all live in a Crazy world , we all have problems , personal Live, a job for Living and You STILL find the Time to Share with us from your knowledge and That is from my point of view THE MOST Important thing to Appreciate ...
that's because You have so Much to give and so much SELFLESSNESS ...
@@mariuspetcu2087 Well, I appreciate your sentiments very much. Please know that this channel started off as a way to help my students progress. A lot of what you are learning are snippets of what they have learned. Additionally, I love learning new things! In this journey, I have been learning a lot about Fusion, CZcams, Final Cut Pro (video editing software) and so much more. If I hated learning, I wouldn’t be anywhere near this point. I’m glad to have met you, a fellow LEARNER.
@@learnitalready "... I’m glad to have met you ..." Likewise ...🤝
Thank you for your fantastic tutorials. Could you consider making a tutorial on how to construct components within a sphere or hemispherical shape? I've attempted this but struggle with working on a concave surface. Picture adding elements to the inner surface of a bowl using different sketching and modeling tools. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated.
I'm a self-taught hobby user of F360 and have watched many YT videos and refer to a heavy text book often to learn about good practice. This video is outstanding in its ability to convey difficult learning concepts so clearly. I followed along (always may preferred way of learning) and it took me about 30 minutes to complete the steps to the end of this video and learning not only some useful techniques but also understanding WHY you did things the way you did. Thank you so much. I have subscribed and will move on to the second part tomorrow.
Wow! What an awesome and encouraging comment. We truly appreciate when ones like you take the time to express your thoughts on our tutorials. We truly hope that you enjoy our other tutorials just as much. There is so much to learn isn’t there! Thanks again. All the best!
I wanted to tell you what an awesome video this is! Very professional extremely informational and well put together! Your teaching Style is extremely clear and concise making it much easier to learn. Thank you so much!!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a nice and encouraging comment. We truly appreciate it. We are very glad that you have found it so beneficial. Hope you enjoy our other tutorials. Please consider sharing our channel. Thanks again!
One of the best explanation.
Glad you liked it
Thanx for showing the standard parts 👍🙂
No problem 👍
New subscriber here. Found your channel through Arnold Rowntree's suggestion. Great stuff!
Awesome! Welcome to the channel. Please feel free to make suggestions as to new tutorials. Thanks for the support and encouragement!
I just looked up Arnold Rowntree. That is incredibly kind of him to suggest us. May I ask, where did he do so? I would like to look that up. Thanks!
I will be on vacay for a couple of weeks. i will be watching the vids but will not have my computer with me. Thanks for all that you do!
Have a great vacation! Thanks for the ongoing support.
Very, very good video. You make it look way, way too easy. Thank you. I'm an old guy wanting to learn and if Ican learn 1/1000 of what you know that would be good.
What a nice comment! Thank you for your support.
Thank you truly, you are a master!
I find more and more that ones, like you, that appreciate lessons like this, are far better students than I am a teacher. Thank you for taking the time to write and for your encouragement. Keep up the good work!
I’ve been kind of nerdy about computer components, both at the software and hardware level for many years and I also like to thinker/optimize and make things.. lately I have been thinking about upgrading my home NAS and this time I thought go and build my own, and one thing led to another..
Raspberry Pi 5 order is laid down, some other components are already here, learning some basics in Linux and growing that limited knowledge I have about that and then I thought, oh well I might as well learn some basics in 3D drawing so I can buy a 3D printer and make the case for it.. so I have been inhaling all the content I can get my hands on.
I wish I found this channal earlier to be completely honest cause I think you do stand out!
Few have the ability to tech and poses the correct ratio of passion and experience and on top of that to be pedagogical about it.. what I’m trying to say is, you and your content keeps me up at night/during all/any free time I can get my hands on.
I’ll be watching and exploring and learning and when I have something tangible I make sure to share it and while doing that give you and the channel credit!
Ps, lots of costs atm since this new hobby ain’t cheep and I’m just scraping the surface now but soon enough I’ll try and contribute in some other way to show my appreciation!
You sound like you’ve got some amazing projects underway. Very cool! We’d love to see any finished projects of yours that we helped with in any way. Please feel free to send over some pics to our email on our home page.
Thanks again for your encouragement and support. We value comments like yours very much. Any way you’d like to show your appreciation would be greatly, well, appreciated!
Thanks again and all the best!
Standard parts at 9:40 help a lot 👍🐾
It’s a very useful feature within F360 isn’t it!
The "copy with mates" feature can be useful which I am often using in solidworks. Hope they bring something like that
Thanks for your comment! There is actually a similar feature in F360 but I didn’t highlight it in this tutorial. I do however talk about it often in other tutorials.
Hope you find some benefit in our other tutorials. All the best!
Thanks for your videos, I just started to watch and looks nice and clean. Especially the animation in the beginning is awesome!@@learnitalready
@@ilkerbulut Thank you! I’ve been learning so much as to how to make better animations as well. You should check out our latest one on the Black Pipe Lamp. More are on the way.
Very good!
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for the video. I wish you would stick with the metric system, not the inches.
Thanks for your comment and feedback. I’ll try and balance metric and imperial units throughout our future tutorials. All the best!
Great tutorial and presentation ,may I ask what software you used to create skewed-blurred effects?
Thanks so much for your comment. I use Final Cut Pro for all my video editing.
when you check if parameters work, around 8:22 the 4 corners made from arcs dont update just the rest of the box, they disappear, when I go to the sketch seems the arc is incomplete like became shorter or bigger depending of parameter checking, seems it is not updating with the rest of the body, why could it be?
May I ask, did you create the arcs in your sketch, or are you using fillets?
How do you get the keyboard presses in the lower left corner?
It’s a purchased app that allows that feature. Do you find it beneficial?
What's the name of the app? Yes, it helps but I mostly want it for my other channel when I teach math with Geogebra/Google @@learnitalready
At 4:10 when you create the wall thickness, the offset inner rectangle does not have rounded corners, yet when I do it, I get offset rounded corners. Subsequently I cannot create the inner posts using an arc in the same way as you do. Any ideas?
Thanks for reaching out! The problem is due to the wall thickness being different from mine. No worries! It can be fixed easily.
Let’s picture that you are looking at the top face sketch and the inside box profile. You have rounded corners on the inside of your box. You will need to create a point that is constrained horizontally and vertical to the top and side edges, which will create a point of intersection between those two edges. Now, create a center point arc with the center at that intersection point. In actuality, you don’t need to create a point ahead of time, but you can actually constrain the center of that arc to the top and side edges, which will do the same thing. Then create the arc as shown at 6:05. Please let me know if that helps.
All the best!
Yeah, that sort of torpedoes this from the get-go. And I don't quite understand his explanation. My wall thickness was 0.25", just as he had it, so that's not the issue. Maybe he can provide an explanation for why there is this difference.
Jim. He goes so fast sometimes that you can't see what he's doing. I tried putting in a negative WallThickness (-WallThickness) and it worked. Give that a try. But I can't tell from the video if he entered it that way or not. It's a bit blurry and goes by real fast.
@@bradnelson3595 so sorry for the confusion. I’m not quite sure why it isn’t working for you. If you’d like, it would be a whole lot easier to see what is happening on your screen if you send me a screen shot of your sketch to issues@learnitalready.com
@@bradnelson3595 Hello! Thanks for your comment and for helping a fellow community member. Awesome!
I’m not sure if you know this, but you can change the resolution so that the screen is much sharper. Click on the cog-wheel for any video and then find “Quality”. You can adjust the quality all the way to 4K for the best resolution. Hope that helps.
At 4:16 the offset command is used to adjust the wall thickness I get a negative number when I try to adjust the wall thickness yours is positive? How do I change this?
I don’t think there is a direct way to change it. For me, sometimes an offset shows up negative and sometimes it shows up positive, but it shouldn’t matter.
You can always put a negative sign (“-“) before your parameter if needed (it’s best practice to keep your parameters in your parameter dialogue window as positive, but when inputting your dimension into a sketch, you can just add a negative symbol before it. For example “-WallThickness”.)
Let me know if that works or if you have further questions. Thanks!
@@learnitalready Thank you for replying, I changed the offset parameter (WallThinkness) to a negative number. I am not sure what is going on I followed your tutorial closely, but for some reason, a negative number kept showing up. So far all seems to be working
When I modify the parameters, the inner radius for the screws disappear. What causes this?
Excellent question! Like I say in the tutorial, test the parameters early and test often. When you do, don’t make drastic changes right away; change them by 0.1 inch increments and observe what is happening to the model. If you do so slowly, you’ll probably be able to deduce why the model “breaks” or why it changes.
Try that and report back to me what you see. Then we can work out the next step.
After I created 5:15 sketch, it does't inherit all the invisible space in the middle, it's just a blank sketch. Any thoughts why?
Thanks for reaching out. The only thing I can think of is, you have likely selected the XY plane by mistake. The best way to tell if you have selected the part face or a plane on the origin is to try and hover your mouse over each one and see the different of the grid lines and the shading of the face. If you hover over the face of the part the shading of that face should change. If you hover over a plane on the origin, that plane will change shades.
Let me know if that makes sense and if it works for you.
@@learnitalready I didn't understand what do you mean. When create 5:15 sketch and click "Finish sketch" I have just a blank sketch with nothing in it. But when I project in it the lines of the empty space- then I can click on it and extrude it.
@@dovapi3711 yes, so how you create the sketch is important. You need to Create Sketch and then select the face that has the geometry that you want to keep and then finish the sketch. If you pick any other face or plane, the geometry you want inherited will not be inherited. You can see that I do that at the 5:15 mark you are referring to.
All my components at beginning, appear in the time line. Yours have not???
Thanks for the comment. If you activate the main assembly (your top line in the browser, a.k.a. your file name) then you’ll see all the components in your timeline. As soon as you activate another component, then your timeline will be clean.
Let me know if that works for you.
There's no pre-made solid objects in Fusion it seems... everything has to be sketched.. what a nightmare. No custom arrays no instances... suppose I'm modeling an airplane wing and have 1500 rivets to place... yea I'll just move and place one rivet at a time /s
Thank you for your comment. At the Learn It! channel, we encourage everyone to keep learning. We would like to learn from your comment. If I am correct, do you have another software in mind that you are comparing F360 to? If so, please share your experience.
Also, please note that this series of tutorials is directed to beginners, and teaches fundamental skills of sketching, assembling, parametric modeling, and inserting pre-made components into the design. We have actually covered the topics of using solid objects instead of sketches in previous tutorials. There are in fact custom arrays and instances and a very easy way to copy and paste components and joints… which will all be discussed in future tutorials. When we get to the point of teaching how to model and assemble an airplane wing, I think you would be amazed at the power and ease of using Fusion 360 for such a process.
Thank you again for your comment. We look forward to hearing more from you soon.
@@learnitalready I looked at the custom array tools.. it's adequate for most tasks but still somewhat limited IE no per instance parameter variations or any noise functions. F360 is an engineering software imo not for designing.
Yes, true! Thanks for taking the time to respond. Do you use any design software that you would like to recommend?
Thank you for the Amazing Follow along Tutorials that you make. I was wondering how to make something like: czcams.com/video/_ZZntM8tjns/video.html, this puzzle box Parametric in Fusion 360?
Thanks so much! That puzzle box would be great to make in Fusion. It would be quite the process to make it parametric, but definitely doable.
short answer "no"... Long answer "still no"
Hello! Thanks for commenting, however I don’t quite understand what you’re referring to. Can you help explain what your mean please? Thanks 🙏
I can get the arc to extrude at all
I'm on the free version so I'm sure it's like nope not letting you unless you buy the program
Thanks for reaching out. Should work fine on the free version. Can you explain what’s happening a little more please? It’s hard to understand what arc you’re referring to, and why you can’t extrude. Thanks!
@learnitalready the arc you did on the corners on the inside so the inserts have room
