Excellent job, so many extremely useful tips to this fully constrained sketch. How many times have I scratched my head wondering why it won’t turn black. This just adds so many new tools to use to solve this problem Thank you for sharing
In a world where everyone has a pause button, you'd think there would be no problem with fast-paced tutorials. Oddly, that isn't so. When I tap into one of those sources, I spend all my time pausing and rewinding. That's not necessary with Brad's tutorials. I hope AutoDesk appreciates what they have in Brad. For the sake of algorithms, like and then share even if it's to your with your grandmother.
Good to hear from you Brad. I miss the live streams. We are so fortunate in any case to leverage the body of tutorials of yours and other s like Lars Christiansen et al. I have spent the last 3yrs making mostly wood chips, but now for some precision part production. The 24 x 48 gantry mill I have needed a lot of upgrades to machine aluminum. I have spent untold hours. On the last mile now. I have even cleaned all the linear bearing blocks and ballnuts. And boy did they need it. The goal was to use the machine to make new Z axis ass'y I can't count the hours spent trying to optimize the 3D toolpaths for the first of these components. Got to the point where I nearly simplified the design to avoid the headaches caused by having to guess. This is a big ask to bring to the forum, so....If I had my wish, I would ask for more involved or intermediate level tutorials on 3D toolpath strategies using something other than "widgets". But anyway, I am about to subscribe to get the full rapid travels and can't wait.
Brad why did you divide the .063,the drawing shows .063 on one side so wouldn’t you multiply by 2 and subtract that from the 1.750? Making that 1.624 across the top. Did I miss something? Love your videos just want to understand.
It's confusing, but it is because I created a "diameter" dimension by selecting the centerline first and then selecting the sketch edge. So, when I do the calculation, I have to take 0.063 off "both" sides due to the diameter dimension. That is why I multiply it by 2. Thanks for watching!
@@bradtallis8968 thanks to you, btw, and those excellent outlines. It's such a massive sense of accomplishment!! I recall taking days to do the mitre saw stand project. I thought too, "didn't Brad do it in an hour" & that was while talking to the audience.
Here is an idea Brad. I'll bet this would stand out ! List the benefits of having a paid subscription to Fusion over the hobby or personal use "license". This is probably something you have never had to deal with, but some of it is a real buzz kill. For me, one of the biggest advantages would be rapid travels during the machining. It is just awful to watch the linking moves of a facing operation that you want all climb cutting when it is limited to 500mm /min. I am waiting patiently for the next price break and hope there is enough in the account
Lol. No, this is my Banter With Brad segment where I answer questions sent in by my viewers. I can spend more time on the video instead of the shorter 3-5 minute Fusion Friday tips.
