A Happy amateur trying his way through Life ... feel Free to join me on this Adventure :) My videos will be about Electronics, Fusion 360, 3D printing, enjoy.
Learned a lot, thanks so much for this! still kinda new and just wanted to ask, is this texture possible to wrap around a body? say i'd like this wavy texture to wrap around with my vase body. Would that be possible? kind regards
I'm trying to model a waffle ice cream cone. This tutorial is great but I can't of a how I would put a diamond pattern on the cone with all those individual faces. I doubt it's possible. Any ideas?
I have an image under the community tab here on youtube, I did the diamond pattern in unfolded state and refolded. But I didn't like the workflow (a lot of small problems) that's why I have not done a video about it.
@@KristianLaholm I see. I may have thought of a way I could do it. I haven't had a chance to test the method yet but it might end up with a bad seam on the pattern. I'll find out over the weekend.
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if Fusion has changed. When I specify a unitless parameter like floor(21/5) it works fine. But when I substitute 21 with a parameter with a unit (mm) I get an error message saying "Parameter's expression edit failed. Units mismatch between expected unitless and evaluated millimeter. Please provide a valid expression."
Anyone knows how to solve the error "cannot make sweep closure for closed path"? I started over and over and always the same error message 😖 Great video btw :)
The sweep only works with 360 deg twists (complete turns) if you do half turns the shape will turn into a mobius strip and Fusion doesn't like that (a surface with only one side)
Instead of creating a circle on a second plane to create the second loft point, you can just offset the base plane by 125mm and project the centre point to the new plane. You can then proceed to loft the triangle to the point
Didn't work for cuts unfortunately. When trying to perform a helix cut into a cylinder, it left faces in the cut of the object as if the curves are calculated differently.
Brilliant. I never could have figured this out on my own. This design was exactly what I was looking for. One thing, Fusion wouldn't let me create cylOD while dimensioning. I had to create the parameter first and then use it.
Hi, I opened the Parameter Menu and then looked under "Model Parameters" > Sketch2 > Diameter Dimension-2. The name of the parameter in my version of Fusion is "d7" and not "cylOD".
@@JesFinkJensen In the workflow the name changed then i created the parameter/dimension in sketch. But you can change the name in Parameter Menu and make it a favorit.
Very helpful as always! Love your channel! Every time I watch your videos I get a new idea about how to use a feature in Fusion that makes my life easier! 😁
Thank you Sir Kristian. Do you mind explaining the purpose of the replace face at the end? Is it basically to join the surface loft with the solid rectangle?
Genuinely some of the best fusion tutorials on RU-vid. I've learned so much about navigating the program from these videos. Just being able to select only bodies and making selection groups and grouping large numbers of timeline events. Truly thank you for your great explanations and tips. Explaining the shortcut commands you use help so much.
Brilliant tutorial! Straight to the point with a detailed explanation of each step that you take. Telling us which shortcut key you're pressing was also helpful!
Hej Kristian, Har du någon rekommendation till rengöringsmedel för fläkthjulet? Jag vet att radiatorrengöring (Hög pH) fungerar till plastfläkthjul om man lämnar hjulet dränkt i det i 3 timmar, men vad funkar bäst och snabbast? I staterna använder de något som heter Viper Heavy Duty som verkar på 10 minuter, men det säljs inte i Sverige.
I always look at the things you draw and have no Idea how your going to complete the task, you always find an answer! After your first drawing I thought you where going to draw a 3d spline on the outside of the sphere and intersect the points, Either way I'm always lost and amazed at your teaching.
I've made a jewelry component like that by making two flat spirals out of a piece of wire. One spiral is wound the opposite direction of the other. The end the wire in each spiral is pulled up to create each half of the sphere and then the two halves are twisted in such a way as to create the sphere made of a spiral. My description isn't the greatest and I can't find the exact video I originally watched to learn the technique. This video shows how to do it with a round stone captured inside the sphere: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2YNagDsIxao.html&pp=ygUZc3BpcmFsIHdpcmUgYmFsbCBlYXJyaW5ncw%3D%3D I really enjoy your videos.
You want the pipe to self-intersect? For that you need make a pipe section for each tu. Split the face of the surface body and do multiple pipe sections.
@@KristianLaholm that is what I was also thinking, I saw a video of a CNCed Bowl in made of wood with that pattern around it...I thought I could replicate it but as you say...not easy.
No parametric CAD software are built to handle mesh-files in a good way. And in my opinion mesh files should not be edited, try and find a STEP file of the design if possible.
Cut outs for a handle on a box, key holder and some other things. It's not a shape I use that often but having good geometry avoids problems down the road.
In most cases I avoid the Primitives because they are not always obeying the parameters. If this is the start of a design a primitive could be a good starting point.
I had to create an ellipsoid for a client not so long ago. I had a completely different approach. Ellipsoid is a body of rotation so I made an ellipse and rotated that. I'll have to have a look on the curvatures you mentioned in this vid though. I am curious if mine is OK or not. It was 3d printed for a maths teacher
The Ellipsoid is only a body of rotation if 2 axis are the same length (or the profile looking along one axis is a circle), in that case the revolve workflow is perfect. The scale workflow is for then all axis are different (the profile looking along the 3-axis are an ellips in all directions)
Watching the video and then hitting the like button afterwards is a waste of time, I just hit it as soon as the video pulls up then I'm amazed at how you tackle the work flow!
Good one, didn't think of that with the scaling, I always checked afterwards and edit the scale to get as close I could to the value I wanted. I understood 1 = 100% and so on.
In my design, I have unfolded one segment to cut out a pattern, however when I refold it and activate the flat pattern fusion will not let me export it as a dxf. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong? I need to have the dxf template with my extrusions.
Sheet metal is a bit sensitive if you break the rules. But you get the flat pattern and it will not export? If possible ask the question on Facebook or Reddit and include the file for people tio have a look at it. I'ts not possible to troubleshoot without the file.
