This makes creating templates for building guitars really easy, thanks.

Very clear description here mate. Thanks for posting these. I've learned such a lot from you.

Thanks so much for this! Glad I found it, the past 2 days I have been stuck trying to export sketches for bodies for my new laser cutter and for my CNC router also. Cheers!

Super simple thanks for keeping the video short and to the point. I can tell I'm going to be watching a lot of these fusion 360 how to's.

Thanks for the very clear and to the point explanation. It really helped me, a new one to F360.

Hey, thanks.That really helps, I was trying the same thing in body instead of sketch.

When looking for a particular component in the Browser If you right click on it in the work space then scroll down to "Find in Browser" this will find and open the component folder you are looking for.
You may have to change your "Selection Filters" to "Bodies". Hope this helps.

Thanks John! i have been wondering how to do this. :D

Everytime I safe a DXF file like that, and I insert it later the lines on the sketch are messed up. Like the sketch isn't the same I have to fix it up.

I was just looking for a way to do (something like) this, thanks!

What screen recording software do you use? I really like that the keyboard strokes appear. Thank you.

Double click on a component to select, right click to get menu you can Activate at the top of the list and/or isolate (right above find in browser)

[allsortsofinterests]

Right click on the component and select "Find in browswer" or find in timeline, or find in window, depending on the situation.

Thanks for your Tute on exporting to a Dxf file. I am just wondering if there is a way to add/show a dimension on the Dxf file?

Another great informative video. Autodesk should pay you. I'm coming across from Solidworks to Fusion because I'm fed up handing money to solidworks and every now and then I think, oh this would be so much easier in solidworks then you show how to do it in fusion the easy way, bingo. keep up the good work

And then how do you deal with KERF?
What's the faster way?!
