Fusion 360 Rule Number One for Beginners Tutorial 

2yrs old but you still deserve a thank you.Good vid!I still struggle with this as I get deeper into a more complex model and it quite often bites me at some point.I’ll keep working on this. Thanks!

DUDE THANK YOU, the way you laid it all out just. made. sense. THANK YOU. I learned in less than ten minutes from you what I couldn't in hours and hours from other people. Haven't looked at your channel yet but I did sub and I RRRRRRRRRRREALLY hope you're still making content.

Well done! You quickly and concisely demonstrated the answer I was looking for.

This tutorial is older, but timelessly current. Very well explained! Pro tip: What also helps is naming the resulting bodies. I even go so far as to give the steps in the timeline meaningful names. You wouldn't believe how helpful this is with more complex designs when you have to modify them three months later. Especially if you used non-intuitive design tricks 😉

Thank you for this, I'm a super noob and learning about components will help save me massive headaches in the future.

This is a tutorial I have been looking for. Many other tutorials descended into rocket science as far as I could understand, but this one and the approach taken explains clearly some of the simple aspects from the get go. Thanks.

How does this not have thousands and thousands of views?? This is amazing!

Dood! This was insanely helpful. I always conceptually understood Rule #1, but this made it fully click for me. Excellent video.

Very important rule, I was geting lost inside my history with lots of events. GREAT VIDEO! thanks

Thank you! Great format, clear audio.. nice work

Thank you. Your Fusion 360 wisdom is much appreciated!

Thank you so much, this was very informative!! :)

Beautiful. Thank you.

very useful, short and to the point

Very good, thank you!

I do like me some efficiency! Great tutorial, thanks.

very helpful video thanks a million

Great video. I am glad I found your video. Very helpful.

This guy is awesome.. Learnt a lot in 8 min❤️

I’m learning Fusion on my own and this video helped me understand many things, thank you for that !!!! Your explanation and examples of Rule #1 helped me really understand it’s relation to (and importance of) the arborescence of components and the importance of keeping it organized! One thing that is not working though is the operations timeline at the bottom: wether I create all my components 1st or create them as I go (always going back to the top-most component ) I don’t get the cleaned-up timeline per component. The only changes I get are blue squiggly lines under the selected component icon (in the timeline) similar to the lines under the selected item in the arborescence. My timeline fills up as I go and stays that way even when I select various components, any idea? A setting somewhere like ‘colour swatch per component’? Here’s how I start: open fusion, click save: name engine, create component piston, create component rod, create component rod pin etc…. I’m on free Educational version like your’s. Thank you again.

great stuff

thanks

Very helpful. One of the main issues of not creating a component first for me, is that later on if you move something like a body, the sketch does not move with it.

Window all and chamfer.. good 1 thx.

This gave me the answer I was searching for!! Engineer at my last job used Inventor and was a mad believer of drawing each part in it’s own file and then importing everything into assembly. I’m learning Fusion and wasn’t sure of the proper way to model multiple part assemblies but now I understand and have confirmation that it definitely doesn’t have to be all separated, thank you ! I create all my components 1st and then navigate them to model them, is that ok or would it be better to create 1, design it fully and then create 2 ?

Great video! I see some create the sketch and then create a component right away. Curious on your thoughts on that versus creating the component, then the sketch.

Good hint 👍

It wasn't a waste of time or un-convincing for me as mentioned below. I'm new to Fusion and this was a very good tutorial, especially since I'm converting from FreeCad. I'm looking, but did you ever design a more complex model? Thanks!

The fact that you cannot name your design separate of saving it and creating a completely useless revision of the design is the most asinine and ridiculously idiotic part of Fusion. So now the description of your v2 of the design changes is, "Actually modeled the effing part".

1) Good narration--crisp, clear. 2) Wasted a lot of the viewers' attention span by making us watch you redo and re-narrate the steps to create the bodies when you demonstrated Rule #1. 3) Reasons presented for following Rule #1 were not convincing. The model was too simple, and the timeline wasn't that complicated in the example of not using Rule #1. No real advantage apparent to following Rule #1. Not trying to be harsh but to give feedback. No other comments here yet. Maybe this feedback will help you build your channel. We can all use more *good* F360 tutorials. Good luck.
