Many products need to adapt to different sizes, and mastering parametric dimensions in Fusion can help you quickly test variations to find the perfect fit for the market. In this tutorial, we’ll design a simple box with a lid and handle to showcase how to control dimensions and maintain proportionality while changing sizes.
What You’ll Learn in This Tutorial:
• How to set up a Box Length user parameter to drive all dimensions.
• The power of naming parameters clearly and using expressions to build dynamic designs.
• Creating sketches with the Center Rectangle for perfect alignment above the origin.
• Using the Extrude command with dynamic expressions like BoxHeight.
• Making the box hollow with the Shell command using the BoxThickness parameter.
• Adding a lid and handle while keeping flexibility for future edits.
We’ll also test the design by changing the Box Length parameter, demonstrating how the entire model adapts automatically.
This tutorial is perfect for beginners and pros looking to improve their parametric design skills in Fusion.

How do you incorporate user parameters into your Autodesk Fusion designs?

[@adambergendorff2702]

Parameters is something I need to start using more, excellent video!

[@The_maker_letters]

Thank you! Using User Parameters in the right situations is a smart habit :)

[@adambergendorff2702]

Parameters is something I need to start using more, most of the time I am designing a one off part.

[@The_maker_letters]

Great, using user parameters in Autodesk Fusion offers several advantages that streamline the design process and enhance productivity. 🙂

[@sagigamil460]

Can you show how to use parameters for repeats?

[@The_maker_letters]

That's a great video idea-thank you! I have a backlog of Fusion tutorial ideas, so I'll add it there and aim to create it in the future. 😊
