What is a sketch?
Creating your first sketch (Sketch Button)
Tools:
Line
Rectangles
Circle
Arcs
Sketch “Modification” (Modify)
Fillet (Not the best tool to use)
Trim/Extend (Not oft used)
Break (Not usually manually done)
Offset
Scale (Not Recommended)
Dimension and constrain sketches in Fusion 360 using dimensions, constraints, and construction lines to fully define geometry, turning blue lines black with a red lock when complete.
Learn to streamline Fusion 360 sketches using equals constraints to make lines equal, apply horizontal and vertical constraints for alignment, and use break tool and construction lines to reduce dimensions.
Learn to apply coincident, tangent, parallel, and perpendicular constraints in Fusion 360 to control sketch geometry, create an equilateral triangle with an inscribed circle, and prevent overlaps.
This course is designed for those who strive to Make and learn. No matter your age, Fusion 360 is a vital tool for those interested in designing 3D parts for fabrication. I have used Fusion 360 to design FRC robots, fix/replace broken household items, and create custom parts for my many side projects.
This is an introductory level course that is also quite in-depth. Whether this is your first 3D design platform or your third, you will learn something new about Fusion 360 every lecture. Each lecture has been specially formatted to serve as both a learning tool and a reference sheet.
