Thanks for slowing the pace down a bit compared to your previous tutorials. Much easier to follow.
Headed over to your web site now.

Thank you for sharing your expertise! Finally moving from 3D Printing with F360 to milling and CAM. I hand codded G-Code back in the 90s for my converted mini mill. Hand coding still seems simpler than learning the new software but Adaptive tool paths are the only way to cut metal with the high speed spindles on todays gantry routers.

Next week i start learning fusion 360 on my own via tutorials like this to work on a CNC mill.

I'm a lathe machinist but going to learn milling now.

15 minutes of clear information packed content, thank you.

Excellent tutorial! I am beginning to realize that the learning path for CNC is one with many branches, and that it is as much about knowing what not to do as what to do. I look forward to looking at your other tutorials!

[JoergGebhard]

Never having done anything with CAM before this was unbelievable helpful, you make it look so simple

great video, would be good to see this actually ran through on a machine

This is kinda wild. I graduated from Zane state 4 tears ago now I'm I'm finishing up my BSME and I'm still learning from Zane state material. Great school, highly recommend.

Getting into CNC machining for custom patches. I've been tinkering with fusion 360 and was confused why when I selected the model floor it would cut through all my other designs. This video has cleared up 80% of my confusion in fusion. Thank you so much for this video...

If i had any of my own money, I’d donate it to you John. Thankyou for establishing the website, this will turn out to be great! This is a great step ahead. Once again, appreciate all the efforts you put in to inspiring others to follow in your footsteps.

You are a lifesaver man, i got a CAM exsm tomorrow!

[ollydix]

Thanks for the awesome video! I find that doing inches is wild since they don't convert so well into other distances.

[Meyerwoodworks]

This is gold for someone like myself that has no experience, thanks John! Hopefully I can attend you're training one day and get a machine.

Came across this video from V1 Engineering site, love it...I'm starting on CNC and love designing on Fusion360 so I'm going to give it a go and see if I success !!! Cheers for sharing the info.

[patwicker]

Very timely video, I just got my home built CNC machine done and was having problems understanding some of the things you cleared up, like the heights. Wish I could give more than 1 thumbs up. Like the slower presentation.

[antonmessina]

Awesome vid, I've literally just downloaded fusion 360 last night and could not get off until early hours of this morning!!! love the tips and what a great tutorial!! 🙏🙏

[daniellooh]

This is awesome i am looking at this video cuz our maker space Fuse 33 in Calgary Canada got a CNC ( smithies mill) donated and I want to be a be able to help others learn with it.
Thank you for helping us learn Jhon !!

[jassteowjiahee]

This is so awesome! And I like this including the website, the tutorials and the software. It's pretty amazing!

[waehamajeharlee]

I am amazed at your accomplishments over the period of time I have watched your channel. Keep up the great work.

I’m just starting out with a CNC Mill and a CNC Lathe, and have just started to learn Fusion 360, your videos are absolutely brilliant!! Thanks for sharing!
