Lars, I am very new to Fusion 360, but not "drafting", some 50 years ago I taught drafting with a T Square, Triangles, Paper and Pencils and later with AutoCAD. I have been watching you on UA-cam form the first Fusion 360 Absolute Beginners. As an instructor and engineer, I was blown away with the knowledge and style you have by delivering the absolute best educational instruction for beginners as well seasoned designers.Its a pleasure to turn on UA-cam to learn from the best.
Wow, That is awesome to hear Pete Santavicca .Thank you for watching the videos and taking the time to comment! You just made my day!
Best,
Lars
Lars I dont know how old this is, but these are excellent. I have learned more about CAD in watching 4 of your videos than I have in my entire life. Thank you for taking the time to explain the steps for us beginners.
Lars, I went from knowing NOTHING about cad in general and with your help with this series of videos I have started making some of my own basic parts that I am beginning to print. I sincerely thank you for offering such a honest simplistic perspective on designing basic objects.
Awesome to hear 👍😊Thank you for watching
Your demeanor and teaching style make it easy to follow and absorb the lessons Lars, Thank you for your time!
Also, your Daughter would be 4 by now, but congratulations, I'll bet you are an awesome Dad!
You are a good instructor. I hope you never quit. Thanks Lars
Thank you Paul Tribbey
I really appreciate it.
Have a great day!
To echo what Sandeep said, you are the best mentor I have discovered thus far! The pacing is great and I really appreciate the beginner level exploration of various tools and their options.
The advanced information is easy enough to find... I watched Autodesk training sessions for two days and didn't get anything to work until I stumbled across your beginner set with the electrical box. This basic info is really hard to find, so I hope you continue to make it available.
hahaha, right!?!?!?
Thank you Warren LeMay
Lars, another great video. Things are slowly starting to fall into place for me, thanks to you and all your effort. Much appreciated. I know this takes up a lot of time for you but you are helping lots of people get past the frustration of learning this complicated program.
That is awesome to hear keiscokr .Thank you for watching the videos
just started working with fusion as a home hobbyist, 3d printer, I find these videos instrumental and awesome to learn from . thanks Lars!
From the heart, you are one of the best mentors in whole youtube I believe.. Great sir... You are awesome...
I've been using Fusion 360 for around 6 months now to design parts for 3D printing... I can't believe I've been doing this without using the Offset tool - which I just learned about from your video! Thanks.
You are so very welcome 👍😊
Thanks Lars, another great video for us beginners. This is why you are at the top of my subscribe list with respect to Fusion 360.
That is awesome to hear Craig Ozolins .Thank you for watching the videos
This is good Lars, I am a COMPLETE beginner at this. A wrong mouse click can cause so many problems! Luckily, I can pause and replay your video once I have got back to where I should be. Many thanks for the time that you are taking with this, I, for one, really appreciate it.
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Thanks Lars, These videos are exactly what I was looking for.
Wow! Thank you! I am two days into Fusion 360. Struggling Bad. It took me all day to recreate your 1HR part. LOL
oof
I Really like the video! I still have a long way to go as far as learning and getting to know Fusion360, but you have made it easy so far!! Thanks a bunch!
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Awesome! Thank You for taking these sessions very slow! This was Extremely helpful for me!
Hello! I'm a student who is learning using CAD for the first time, I'm very happy that I can re-learn how to use the command for drawing from your videos that I forgot when I learning CAD in school, thanks again your videos!
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Awesome. Lars your videos are my go to when I want to learn something new about Fusion360.
Thanks so much for this step by step beginner video. I have been using very specific tutorials to do specific tasks - but they never explain what is happening or why. So Helpful!
I think you have the pace of this stuff just about right for us folks that are new to Fusion.
Thank you T Reischl
Hi Lars, I just finished watching your Fusion 360 Absolute Beginner Facebook Livestream on UA-cam. I learned more in a couple of hours with you, I had my 360 open on another screen and followed along, than with all the beginners Autodesk tutorials I have watched. Great work, thanks! Bob
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Thanks again. I wish I had found both this program & you some time ago. Teaching an old dog new tricks is not easy, but I'd like to learn (it's just my memory letting me down, so I spose I can watch these videos many times!!) CHEERS!!
Im not a beginner per-say but theres always something to learn and I like watching how others approach modeling something. Love the casual Live Streams. You have been a big help. - Jacob S.
That is awesome to hear Jacob S. .Thank you for watching the videos
best teacher out there, sending love from South Africa 😀
Okay I added "Christensen" to the facebook link and it worked. Very nice video, I learn a lot from you. Fusion360 is a big happy chunk of my life!
Thank you Royce Barber
2nd that ! Only problem Im having is that Im somewhat (ok a lot) AR and have been binge watching to get through the 100+ backlog videos to get "current" : )
Excllent! Even I can follow your pace and instruction. Thanks again.
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Lars; Excellent video! This one video covered all the issues I had been struggling with as a beginner with my current project. It took me from being discouraged to being enthusiastic again. Please continue to make instructional videos geared to novices like myself. Thanks so much! Your time and effort is much appreciated.
I really enjoy your videos Lars. When I tried to learn some cad before i just got lost. With the help of your videos i am finally making progress. As a hobbyist i would consider myself lucky if i could master 15% of what 360 can do. Also hats off to the Fusion 360 team. What a fantastic program. Thanks for all you do.
You are so very welcome 👍Thank you for watching 😊
Thanks Lars these videos have helped a lot. I have learned quite a bit but have much more to learn.
Quick Tip: 39:09 you could also select first chamfer then hold ctrl key to allow multiple selections also works with other stuff too try and experiment. I caught onto this from Titans of cnc academy.
All around its a good vid for beginner thank you for your time.
I'm just starting to learn fusion 360 and this was extremely useful. thank you :)
Great training! I have learn so much from your videos! I have found yours have been the most useful for me.
That is great DSG Frabrication .Thank you for watching the videos
I am really grateful that you spend so much time on your tutorials. I have been using Autocad for some time drawing 2D - I am certain pretty clumsily but I get where I need to go. 3D is of course another level and I concur with Warren - it is not so easy to find a good guide to break the initial barrier. I appreciate your contribution you make to my hobby.
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Lars love your videos! After watching your three beginner videos twice through I was up and drawing my model train parts for myself! Thanks
You are so very welcome😊👍Thank you for watching
Lars - Thanks for taking time to go into the basics. I did 2D cad version 10 years ago and was pretty good, but just getting into 3D and your videos are great !! Much appreciated!
That is awesome to hear Practical Metal .Thank you for watching the videos
Thank you Lars for not showing off how good you are, but just teaching people like me in a simple way. must be a good brand beer lol
I really appreciate these vids! You've become my online teacher with fusion. Going on day 2 and learning curve is rough.
Ty for your Tutorial, I am stuck at home due to lock-down, Your videos, Mainly the way you tech helped me improve myself in Fusion 360
Cad and cam is my future and you're my mentor good sir. Thank you .
That is awesome to hear jake johnston .Thank you for watching the videos
i wish i found you in 2017... u are an excelent teacher! thanks from Brasil
Great video series, I'm learning a lot in a short time. Thanks for taking the time and sharing the knowledge you have gained over your career.
Learning exponentially thanks to you Lars...cheers from Australia.

That is awesome to hear zxandermax .Thank you for watching the videos
This was exactly what I am looking for. Thanks - I subscribed and will hopefully make the next live one.
Thank you Lars ..really enjoy your tutorial
Looking at a subscription for Fusion 360. Found this Channel and find it awesome.
Very concise and very helpful and very clear.....thanks
Hello Lars, good video to start for me as I am beginner, I hope to see more such videos, it is so easy to learn from you.
Step by step. I am sure will learn more about Autodesk Fusion 360, soon, it is great opportunity. I am watching also your advanced videos, it is OK for me but I really should to start from good basis.
Hi Radoslaw Jocz Thank you for watching! and the feedback
Have a great day!
Lars, This is great and good pace - totally new to F360 great info!!!
Awesome again completed this just added a chamfer of 1.5mm to my holes getting the hang of this thanks
That is awesome to hear Apocalyptic Weasel .Thank you for watching the videos
Thanks Lars, your tutorials are great!
Awesome to hear
I'm in Alaska (4 hours earlier) so the time selection doesn't work for me, but this is good stuff. I am an absolute beginner. I am definitely learning with this slower format. Thank you.
Hi JB Marker Thank you for watching! I will make sure these recordings are available for sure.
Best,
Lars
I would love to see this bracket done as a sheet metal version aswell. Awesome videos Lars
Dear Lars Thank you so much for doing this and your time again and again. I got a question. I did the tutorial but I did something different: at the fist triangle I cut the corners as you did as well as the bottom corner that got cut with a circle. But then I wanted to extrude the sides and did an offset line from any of the edges offsetting it -2mm. at ther end that line did not touch with the rounded line so I could not extrude the sides. I know I could go backwards and all. But is there a way that I can offset a line and then resize it to fit or intersect another line? I tried without success. Many thanks Belen
Hi Belen Hedderich Thank you for watching!
You could try the extend function on the sketch dropdown....Not hundred percent sure though :-)
just started Fusion. Thanks for the tutorials!
Excellent video! Thanks Lars!
I have to be using a different version of Fusion. For a lot of the steps it takes me back to a sketch view, very frustrating.
With that, overall this is an excellent tutorial! Looking forward to going through all of the videos.
Thank you so much from Ukraine.
Lars, thank you so much, I have learned so much things.
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
I didn't watch live. But this was super helpful. Learned a lot. I think I need to just keep doing things to commit them to memory. The thing I'd like to see is learning how to take my design into VCarve. I don't want to do the CAM in fusion though. I'd like to take my design into VCarve to create my toolpaths.
Love the videos I’m working my way through your tutorials. I haven’t got the same stuff in my Sketch palette as you. Do I need to turn some feature on? I’m on the hobbiest version
Lars I don't do face book, but I'll watch all you can produce. Thanks
Thank you Charlie Didio
awesome videos, learning so much watching these. Thank you. You should consider multistreaming on twitch. :)
You are a great teacher!
Very Helpful Thank You Eric
Thanks Lars
I really enjoyed this tutorial, thank you
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
when i select the xy plane it does not rotate to 2d view, do you know how to fix ?
Hi, Lars another subscriber here. Love your vids. Too many I will start here already done the beginners Part 1,2&3.
Thank you Ruben
Big Thanks !!!! awesome videos
Lars, You often mention that it's best to think about how the object might be manufactured as you're deciding on the sequence of operations to create it in Fusion, e.g. drill holes, cut something away, add parts, etc.. I'm wondering if the sequence might be different, that you might take a different approach, if the intention is to 3D print the part rather than have it made with the normal manufacturing processes. Do you have any insights on that?
Hi Roger Garrett Thank you for watching!
I have to make sure that I am clear that this is just my two cents. My experience is that it is easy to get overwhelmed when trying to model something because there are so many features. I'm just trying to share a way that has helped me. If you had to cut the part out of a bar of soap and you only had a knife...That is a starting point.
As a user get more experience, they can start using fancy commands and will to find it easier to make their model.
Hey Lars, as all said we learned a lot from you. And when are you coming back for the new videos?
Hi thanks a lot from FRANCE
Great Tutorials Lars !!!
good tutorial. thanks.
Do we need a paid version of Fusion 360 to get the options to show up in the Sketch Pallet (constraints)? I also don't see Construction as you've described here. Looking for it but can't find that option for a line.
Enjoyed that ..thanks a lot.
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
Nice lesson Lars thanks
Hi Lars, your videos are great. I'm wondering when we are onto the holes on the vertical walls, is there a way to mirror down the centre line of the base plate (from tip to the midpoint on the hypotenuse) to save having to do two separate sketches? Or can you only mirror on the Z, X and Y axis?
When you just drag and move blue-lined items around (like at around 58 minutes) I can't do it. If I hold it brings up a small menu. If I just click and drag it starts making a selection box as if nothing was there? Any ideas?
Very helpful, thank you!
Great basic stuff, always a lot of new guys starting on F360 since it is so affordable.
Thank you Doug Doty
Awesome tutorial!
Drew a milled slot using 2 circles and 2 lines constrained as tangent. Can't cut it out as when I go to select it, the select leaches into to several surrounding features. Sort of like a fill on a drawing program goes out of a defined area and you can't figure out why cause the lines and area are closed.
Lars just thank You so much again. :)
You are so very welcome. Thank you for watching 👍😊
Great as usual, Thanks
You are so very welcome :-) Thank you for watching!
hi Lars, I dont know if you'll respond to a question on a video this old but how would you go about fixing the back relief area's fillets? Specifically the ones that touch the cut corner and them making that angle in the walls.
ahhh you have great taste " Labatts Blue""
Couple issues I am having, One when I choose line, it does not go to the flat plane like yours does. And at 31:20 I cannot seem to get the relationship to click and start that line. Unless I rotate the part some. Then it is off. And does not turn black.
