Another Fusion 360 tutorial on caninets: • Fusion 360 Tutorial - ...
Does Fusion 360 seem intimidating? I try to breakdown the Parametric Modeling feature in a very simple, basic way.
Fusion 360 is a great tool for woodworkers that want to create a 3D model of their furniture or project before heading to the workshop to start building. The parametric modeling feature of Fusion 360 sets this software apart from the others. You are able to quickly and easily establish all the dimensions of your project up front and build the model off of those. So, if you need to make any slight adjustments later on while designing, it's as easy as changing a few numbers and the entire piece chances automatically without any manual processes.

absolute newbie at drafting after about 10 years of carpentry/fabrication, this was incredibly helpful as I need to finally get my head wrapped around designing and drafting for myself and you provided a great primer.

@paulstandiford5356 2 года назад

I've been looking for a tutorial to design a 4 drawer cabinet I want to build. I've watched other tutorials that showed how to draw but this one was PERFECT for my needs. I really want to make a drawing like you created where everything is a parameter. Again, just PERFECT.

This was super helpful. I'm obviously on a newer version of F360 so it was a bit of a pain to figure out how to do exactly what you were doing when they've changed some of the interface, but once I figured those out, this was a great first step. Literally, my first time opening F360, too. I'll be using this for the same thing Woodworking/Cabinet stuff. Would love to see more F360 videos from you. Thank you for this!

Great introductory video. I got into Fusion for doing cnc milling but as a life long woodworker it became invaluable for all of the reasons you mention. If I may comment, you probably know that best practice is to use fewer dimensions and more constraints, for example, the lengths of the top and bottom didn't need dimensions, just a colinear constraint which Fusion does automatically. Pretty sure you are also aware that making components rather than bodies offers up more flexibility for moves, copies, assemblies, etc. Love seeing more woodworkers using Fusion, thanks for posting.

Why do you remove sketchup

@daveyJ213 Год назад

@@ibrahimsholeh5140 I still love SketchUp, but I am trying to see if I can use Fusion, because I am attracted to its ability to create detailed drawings from your model. SketchUp can only do that with a separate application, Layout. SketchUp is way easier to use in some instances. Maybe it's just a familiarity thing.

@meanpaco 2 года назад

I will definitely look into Fusion 360. Looks fairly simple to use, but I am betting you can make it as complicated as you want. I also read that it is setup to work with CNC without having to add any add-ons like Sketch-up requires. Thanks for the video!

@rolling_marbles 8 месяцев назад

Constraints are your friend. Instead of doing the formula for the top and bottom you can constrain those prices the the inside of the sides, so things automatically adjust based on constraints. Also, extrude to object is very nice as well. Also, do components instead of bodies and you can copy components and create a nice cut list easily.

Nice video and very clear. I curious, I noticed you used an expression for the width of the shelves. Is there an advantage to using expressions over using constraints? Thanks for a great tutorial.

@edkins1 9 месяцев назад

Also, it is not necessary to get in to parameters window for the first time. When you start sketching and write your dimensions make sure that you name them too. For instance you want 39" of width so type width=39. Next time when you sketch something and dimension need to be 39 again. just type your parameter name "With" . All of your naming you will find in parameters window later, when time comes for adjustments.

Great video Bro!!! Really been helpful in designing cabinets. Would you mind making a video on how to do the drawers? i would love to be able to use the parametric functionality to add and subtract drawers.

Its done by doing drawers in a pattern style and giving the dimensions with formulas instead of numbers (restrict to height and width of the available space inside the cabinet divided by the number of drawers).

@TrollingMyLawn Год назад

@jeffreyromero9169 Pretty simple actually! 1. Model the box he shows, how he shows it in the video. 2. Go into Parameters and add "Drawer Count" and set it to any number. Set the unit to NONE. 3. Make a Width_DrawerFace Parameter. Set it to total_width 4. Make a Height_DrawerFace Parameter. Set it to total_height / Drawer Count. ( I think you see where this is going.) Now you have a drawer face that will scale size as you update the drawer_count parameter. But how do we repeat it on the face of the box? RECTANGULAR PATTERN, BABY! 1. Extrude the face of the drawerface sketch away from the body by ply_thickness 2. Select the extruded face, and in the solids, select the Rectangular Pattern tool. 3. Select "axes" in the pattern tool window, and select the Z axis. 4. Set the quantity of the pattern (see where this is going?) to the Drawer_Count parameter. 5. Set the Distance to height_drawerfaces 6. Hit okay. That's it! Now that you know how you scale the drawer face, you can see how the rest of the back-end structure changes, based on how you make the object, etc. Basically it just hinges (heh) on the parameters you feed into Rectangular pattern. Be thoughtful about how you setup parameters, and you can create scalable projects pretty easily. Hope that helps!
