I have been following ur tutorial for 24 days in a row and learner a lot about fusion 360 from ur tutorial videos. Before 1st March I was not really sure if I could even make it a And now it is a habit of getting up have some breakfast then start ur video and start designing. They are very explanatory and helpful I am now designing a robot and though I don't know fully how to design it, but I now feel comfortable enough to tinker Waiting for your next 25th day video ❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks to your videos, I fell like I've crossed my NOOB lvl in Fusion 360

I am loving the videos, I skipped ahead to see which techniques are covered in later videos. I was wondering about how long of a turn around between each episode? Secondly, even though the fusion version will be different are your older videos for learning fusion still viable? or would you recommend waiting for the next 6 days? Thank you!

Hi Kevin. I completed your whole series, it was great, i have a question. On one video you showed how to switch between items that were highlighted when the mouse pointer was placed over the body. It generated a popup with a list of all the items under the mouse pointer and you could choose which one you wanted. I now need that on a project and I cannot find the video where you showed this very useful tool. Thank you

[indranin]

you taught me a lot, i have been using fusion for 3 years but still....

[TechnoWitD]

how to export proper bend lines (center lines). Because when exported to dxf, the lines in dxf files, always show in straight lines.

Are you going to update more videos in "Learn Fusion 360 in 30 days" playlist?

[srilemobitelsrile]

What videos do you recommend to watch while waiting for new release? I am learning because I got 3d printer.

[ReachForInfinite]

Fantastic series, but holy cow.. $65 napkin holder lol.

[Fnta_discovery]

Hi how can I learn 3D design like the way you do it I really like your 3D design

This one has been very difficult to follow. What is happening at 7:49? Are you clicking, dragging, or a combination of both? It's unclear when you are clicking on points or dragging from one to another.

You don't even have 30 videos yet
